Bioanalytical Strategies for Oncolytic Virus Therapeutics
Now Streaming On-Demand
Oncolytic viruses for the treatment of cancer and genetic disease has been an area of active study for decades. Testing strategies for monitoring efficacy and safety of such therapeutics includes biomarker, biodistribution, viral shedding and infectivity assays.
Assessing the risk level for individual programs can drive the use of these bioanalytical methods and help shape overall strategy. Logistics for sample collection and handling, as well as the use of the data for these tests, are critical for understanding preclinical and clinical oncolytic virus programs. This webinar covers each of these topics, highlighting current expectations from regulatory agencies.
Our experts will discuss lessons learned from their experiences and offer insight into the multiple stages of specific assays including critical reagents, regulatory standards, assay formats and timelines.
Michelle Miller, Ph.D., DABT, Scientific Officer, Director, has over a decade of experience working in the fields of immunology and toxicology. With a strong background in project management, Dr Miller previously served as an Associate Director of Bioanalytical Operations at BioAgilytix.
Prior to BioAgilytix, Michelle worked as a study director leading GLP toxicology and immunotoxicology studies as a lead investigator in the toxicology field developing high throughput screening assays, and as an R&D scientist in the pharmaceutical industry. She is a current diplomate of the American Board of Toxicology. Michelle earned her B.A. in Chemistry, B.S. in Zoology and Ph.D. in Immunology with a minor in Biochemistry from North Carolina State University (NC, USA).
