Localized immunotherapy delivery is clinically investigated to improve antitumor immune responses and avoid toxicities associated with conventional systemic administration. However, bolus delivery rapidly disseminates systemically resulting in undesirable systemic drug exposure and thus requires repeated administration. In this presentation,Corrine Ying Xuan Chua, PhD, explores localized immunomodulatory strategies for cancer treatment and prevention. Dr. Chua investigates the efficacy of sustained local immunotherapy delivery implants to modulate tumor microenvironment and activate systemic anti-tumor immune responses.
Lunch will be provided to the first 35 attendees.
