Overview

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell ("Living Drug") immunotherapy is showing promising results in the treatment of cancers. There are nine ongoing clinical trials (Phase I & II) at Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK) and more are on track to be initiated next year. Over the years, MSK has accumulated a breadth of knowledge about developing and translating these clinical trials from bench to bedside and back to bench – constructing, manufacturing and obtaining FDA approvals for clinical grade CARs and vectors, developing universal algorithms across multiple CAR T-cell clinical trials for the treatment and management of complications, and conducting world-class correlative science.

MSK faculty, along with national and international experts, will discuss the clinical and translational aspects of cell therapies (CARs, TCRs, NKs), both for hematologic malignancies and solid tumors.

The target audience includes medical oncologists and oncology fellows, basic scientists, research fellows, nurses, clinical trial research staff, immunologists, and surgeons with an interest in tumor immunology and immunotherapy.

ABC of Cell Therapy for Paramedical Staff - Attendees will learn the basics of cellular therapy including the pre-clinical development, clinical translation, and regulatory requirements from medical, para-medical, nursing, and research experts involved in cellular therapy clinical trials. In addition, the essentials of designing and conducting a cell therapy clinical trial will be presented. Attendees will have opportunity to visit cell therapy lab(s), manufacturing facility, and apheresis unit involved in the investigational and commercial application of cellular therapies. At the end of the session, registered attendees will have opportunity to interact one-on-one with cell therapy experts.

Meet the experts session

Attendees will have an opportunity to interact, discuss and learn from Cell Therapy Faculty in an informal dialogue. Please choose the round table session you like to participate in at registration. Options include Neurotoxicity, ICU management, CRS, Manufacturing QA & QC, Solid tumor cell therapy, TCRs, Multi-center trials, Anti-PD1 strategies post cell therapy, Commercial CART T cells, or Role of Nursing.

Optional Non-CME Industry Sessions

There will be two optional non-CME industry sessions for attendees, one on Thursday from 4:30-6:00 pm and another on Friday from 5:00-5:30 pm. Please note that Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center will not be offering CME credits for either industry session.
