Next Generation TCR-T Cell Therapies Can Offer Improved Safety and Enhanced Efficacy
-Review the need for cutting-edge in vitro technologies to fill a critical gap in pre-clinical safety and efficacy studies of TCR-T therapies in the absence of adequate animal models
-Evaluate how genetic modifications of recipient T cells can give them additional capacity to display enhanced functions in hostile tumour microenvironments
-Turning negative signals into positive signals through expression of chimeric co-stimulatory proteins to enhance effector cell functions and overcome negative effects of tumour cells.

Obtaining Clinical Trial Authorisation for TCR-Modified T Cells in Germany
-Discuss how the TCR field is early and clinical development is just ramping up worldwide, exposing regulatory agencies to these novel therapies
-Share the experience of gaining clinical trial authorisation of MDG1011, a PRAME specific, autologous TCR modifief T cell therapy in Germany
-Review how Germany poses some special considerations due to its federal structure in order to facilitate clinical site start.
