| Session 1. Recent Advances in Therapeutic Antibody R&D |
|
As a major part of recombinant protein therapeutics, antibody therapeutics have made a remarkable progress of industry while the whole pharmaceutical market has been in stagnant growth rate. First session will provide latest updates in global R&D in antibody therapeutics regarding engineering antibodies for improved efficacy, and the therapeutic significance of human antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies and novel targets discovery will be discussed and the development of monoclonal antibody for the treatment of B-cell Malignancy will be presented as an example. The last topic in the first session is R&D of therapeutic antibodies which include past experience, current trend and future direction of this field. |

| Session 2. Process Development of Therapeutic Antibodies |
|
Although Therapeutic antibody field has shown rapid growth, limitation of validated target raised the interest in efficacy enhancement through the antibody engineering. This second session will discuss in depth about current status of local and global antibody manufacturing capacities, problem and checkpoint in the process development for eventual antibody development. The first time will be addressed assessment of cell engineering strategies for improved therapeutic antibody production in CHO cells. What will follow is ADCC and CDC enhancement technology for next generation therapeutic antibodies. The final topic is the role of the analytical tools in the development of therapeutic antibodies. |

| Session 3. Forecasts by Industries in Therapeutic Antibody Development |
|
Due to advantage of the cost-effective and shorter development time, many Korean pharmaceutical companies are trying to develop the therapeutic antibody. This session will discuss on the global forecast of antibody therapeutics market in the short and long term from the viewpoint of therapeutics industries in Korea. The developmental programs of therapeutic antibodies will be presented by Hanwha Chemical Corp., Korea Greencross Corp., and Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology. |
