Session Chair(s)
Yutaka Tanaka, PhD
Executive Vice President, Member of the Board
Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Japan
Disease treatment is shifting towards use of personalized medicine, in search for “finding the best fit drugs for individual patients,” since there are various molecular-targeted drugs available nowadays across therapeutic areas such as oncology. Still, though, the search for “finding patients who would match individual molecular-targeted drugs” is the mainstream of treatment by moleculartargeted drugs. This usually requires involvement of various companies in order to combine development of a new medicine and companion diagnostic drugs/devices, which can become troublesome. In this session, we will hear opinions from inside and outside the pharmaceutical and the diagnostic drugs/devices industry about current issues as well as strategy to overcome those issues, and think about what will be the key for success on developing future molecular-targeted drugs.
