Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) July 08, 2016 - Richard E. Buller, Vice President of Oncology, Clinical Development & Head of Global Product Development at Pfizer will give a keynote presentation on, "Feedback Loops Between Biomarkers and Targeted Agents in Clinical Trials and Beyond: Lessons from Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK+) Driven Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)" at GTCbio's Biomarker Summit Europe 2016 to be held on October 5-7, 2016 in Berlin, Germany.

Utilizing public data from the development of multiple ALK inhibitors and the performance characteristics of multiple diagnostic tests for disease relevant biomarkers, Richard Buller will discuss how opportunities for the advancement of regulatory science have evolved and come to fruition in both the drug and diagnostic spaces.

The summit will address the latest developments in the biomarker arena from discovery to translation to commercialization. Presentations span across multiple disciplines and cover topics such as discovery and validation strategies, the challenges of clinical translation, novel technologies including next-generation sequencing, companion diagnostics, the health economics value of biomarkers, reimbursement environment, and perspective on cell free biomarkers for disease diagnostics. Scientific data, case studies and discussions will be facilitated by key representatives from pharma, biotech, academia and the public sector.
