Track 2:  Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is a category of cancer treatment that uses chemical substances, especially one or more anti-cancer drugs (chemotherapeutic agents) that are given as part of a standardized chemotherapy regimen. Chemotherapy may be given with a curative intent or it may aim to prolong life or to reduce symptoms (palliative chemotherapy). Chemotherapy is one of the major categories of medical oncology (the medical discipline specifically devoted to pharmacotherapy for cancer).

Track 6:  Nano medicine & Drug Delivery System

Nano medicine is the medical application of nanotechnology. Nano medicine ranges from the medical applications of nanomaterial’s and biological devices, to Nano electronic biosensors, and even possible future applications of molecular nanotechnology such as biological machines. Limitations to conventional cancer chemotherapy include drug resistance, lack of selectivity, and lack of solubility. Nanoparticles have the potential to overcome these problems.

Drug delivery refers to approaches, formulations, technologies, and systems for transporting a pharmaceutical compound in the body as needed to safely achieve its desired therapeutic effect. Drug delivery technologies modify drug release profile, absorption, distribution and elimination for the benefit of improving product efficacy and safety, as well as patient convenience and compliance. Drug release is from: diffusion, degradation, swelling, and affinity-based mechanisms.

Track 7:  Cancer Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are experiments done in clinical research. Such prospective biomedical or behavioral research studies on human participants are designed to answer specific questions about biomedical or behavioral interventions, including new treatments (such as novel vaccines, drugs, dietary choices, dietary supplements, and medical devices) and known interventions that warrant further study and comparison. Clinical trials generate data on safety and efficacy. Of every 5,000 cancer molecules identified in the laboratory, about 250 will enter pre-clinical testing. Of this 250, fewer than 10 are tested in clinical trials and on average only one will be approved by regulatory authorities. The process of bringing a new treatment from the research stage (laboratory) to clinic is estimated to take between 10–13 years.

Track 8: Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is when a microbe evolves to become more or fully resistant to antimicrobials which previously could treat it. This broader term also covers antibiotic resistance, which applies to bacteria and antibiotics. Resistant microbes are increasingly difficult to treat, requiring alternative medications or higher doses—which may be more costly or more toxic. Microbes resistant to multiple antimicrobials are called multidrug resistant (MDR); or sometimes superbugs.

Cancer Breakthrough news that OVARIAN cancer patients could benefit more from new immunotherapy drugs if they are administered straight after chemotherapy has led scientists to research more in the field of Cancer Immunotherapy. Similarly Biological drugs based on monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have emerged as a preferred option for treating various cancer types, especially for blood cancer (leukemia). There is the need of new therapy protocol and system to mitigate poor prognosis in chemotherapy resistant lymphoma patients.

            According to IMS Health Holdings, the oncology therapeutic market, strengthening with the global spending on drugs, is expected to surpass $150 billion by 2020. The drastic hike is due to the launch of new novel therapies that are directly related to the immune system. Bristol-Myers Squibb Co and Merck along with other companies are putting in their diligent efforts to develop new molecules for the management and treatment of multiple ailments of oncology. Over the last five years, the cost of the oncology drugs rose to 72% in the US, which contributes to $15.9 billion. Going further, the biological therapies are expected to dominate the market by 2020, due to their high efficacy, target specific action and less toxicity. Blood cancer drugs market was the largest revenue generating segment in 2016 owing to the high cost of drugs (immunotherapies) used for the treatment of blood cancer.

            Geographically, North America, dominates the market followed by Europe. North America accounted for about 38% share in the overall oncology drugs market in 2016 owing to the heavy investments by multinational companies in research and development of cancer drugs, particularly immune therapeutics, favorable reimbursement policies, and high adoption rate of immunotherapies. On the other hand, Asia-Pacific market would grow at the promising CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period. Such high growth rate is majorly due to increasing awareness towards advanced therapies namely immunotherapies and increase in per capita healthcare spending.

            Why it’s in San Antonio, Texas, USA?

Chemotherapy confers a large burden in the United States. Several evidence-based interventions are available to reduce the incidence, morbidity, and mortality from these cancers. The National Comprehensive Chemotherapy Control Program (NCCCP) is uniquely positioned to implement these interventions in the US population. It is estimated that there will be about 91,000 new cases diagnosed and approximately 28,000 deaths from cancer in the United States during 2016.
