Oncology R&D: ROI and the New Expectations

Investment in cancer drug development is complex — while the science is highly innovative, and the pipeline is the largest of any therapeutic area, oncology drug development suffers the highest failure rate of any TA. This panel will explore how to improve the odds in cancer drug development in order to provide better value for drug developers and patients. Our diverse panel will address who is and who should be making the decisions, economic return, strategies to improve investment value, and the role of new stakeholders. This is sure to be a provocative discussion.
