Do you know what is the % of drug candidates that fail in human trials?
Guess, and I bet you underestimated it.
This is what we speak at the beginning of this episode and what my guest wants to change dramatically.
You will also hear about:
- the % of patients that actually benefit from approved cancer drug therapies (spoiler: so so low)
- cancer monotherapies vs. cancer combination therapies
- how to reproduce the human cancer ecosystem from a tumor
- precision oncology
- multiomics analysis
- and how to bring cancer drugs faster to patients
Dr. Marie-Agnès Doucey, the co-founder of Calico Biosystems, is a biotechnology engineer with a PhD in biochemistry. She has over 15 years of experience in R&D and drug development programs in oncology.
Calico Biosystems is a Swiss startup developing a drug testing platform that uses patients’ tumors, multiomics profiling, and computational modeling to predict the clinical efficacy of anti-cancer drugs at the pre-clinical stage. Radically accelerating drug development.
