The lecture will cover new classes of cancer therapeutics with a particular focus on immunotherapies and antibody-drug-conjugates. It will further discuss synergies between 'old' as well as 'new' anti-cancer drugs, such as targeted agents with chemotherapeutics, and immunotherapies. Finally it will provide insights into on-going clinical as well as translational cancer research and present findings from the lecturers own research. |
