AACR Journals Webinar on CAR T Cell Manufacturing

When:  Sep 27, 2021 from 11:00 to 12:00 (ET)

CAR T cell production process is a major determinant of efficacy, reproducibility, and accessibility of CAR T cell therapies. Hosted by Blood Cancer Discovery, this webinar aims to identify actionable points to spearhead innovation and harmonization of the CAR T cell manufacturing process. The review article, “Scalable Manufacturing of CAR T Cells for Cancer Immunotherapy”just published in the journal, provides the necessary background.

A panel of experts representing major stakeholders in the field will discuss the future goals and current barriers in CAR T cell manufacturing, and brainstorm how these barriers can be overcome.

AACR welcomes suggestions on discussion points and questions to the speakers from all interested parties. They can be submitted ahead of the event on Twitter (https://twitter.com/_TanyaBondar_/status/1437868277112492033?s=20), from where they will be selected for panel discussion topics and Q&A. The emphasis of the panel is to identify practical steps for all stakeholders represented among the panelists and organizers (FDA, NCI, industry, academia, clinical care and research, academic publishing, professional societies) with possible follow up on developing such ideas to action.
