Q&A with Mark Garner: The golden age of cancer research  

Drug Discovery World

Decades of research on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of how the immune system detects and kills cancerous or pre-cancerous cells, known as immune surveillance, and the factors which modulate that response, have led to understanding how we can enable a patient’s own immune system to fight cancer more efficiently in different ways.

Biopharma Leaders Unite To Stand With Science

The Pharma Data

More specifically, the agency requires that scientific evidence for regulatory approval must come from large, high quality clinical trials that are randomized and observer-blinded, with an expectation of appropriately designed studies with significant numbers of participants across diverse populations.

The evolution of assays for immuno-oncology research

Drug Discovery World

Cancer is a complex heterogenous multistep disease characterised by uncontrolled cell proliferation combined with a dysregulated immune response. A healthy immune system is naturally primed to eliminate malignant and abnormal cells through a synchronised and dynamic interplay between adaptive and innate immunity.
