PSWC 2007 Post-Satellite EAPB and EUFEPS
Workshop on Monoclonal AntiBodies

EUFEPS is extremely pleased to offer registrants of the PSWC the opportunity to participate in a Post-Satellite Workshop on monoclonal antibodies, a topic emerging as one of the most groundbreaking and influential pharmaceutical areas to date. The Workshop will cover a broad spectrum of topics from the design and engineering of monoclonal antibodies, from process development (e.g. cell line optimisation and down stream processing), analytics, through formulation aspects and manufacturing, all the way to clinical applications. An important element of the Workshop will be the attention paid to current regulatory requirements for the introduction of monoclonal antibodies. Trends towards modification of antibodies by conjugation or subsequent glycosylation, as well as their reduction in size to antibody fragments such as domain or single chain antibodies, will also be discussed.



Topics covered include:
• New technologies for design of antibodies and engineering
• Latest advancements in ustream development including expression systems and feed strategies
• Downstream development including purification and recovery optimisation
• Physical characterisation, formulation and delivery systems
• Scale-up issues and production scale manufacturing
• Analytics and specifications
• Clinical update (new antibody therapies), commercial impact and new trends
• Pharmacokinetics and safety
• Armed antibodies and new classes of antibodies or antibody derivatives
• Future of antibody therapeutics: What are the next Steps?

The Conference is co-sponsored by AAPS and FIP and the detailed program is available on the EUFEPS homepage (www.eufeps.org )

FIP Career Centre at the PSWC

During the PSWC, FIP will be organising a Career Centre, with free participation for all PSWC registrants !

Participation is possible via two ways - candidates may express interest in interviewing for a specific job posted on the Career website or arrangements may be made for individuals to come into contact with companies for a more informal discussion.

Those wishing to participate will be asked to post their CVs on the soon-to-be launched website - if a company wishes to initiate contact, an interview will be scheduled at mutually convenient times. These interviews will take place in private recruitment rooms.

The Career Centre will run from 22 - 25 April at the Amsterdam RAI Convention Centre.

Detailed information to follow soon in subsequent E-Letters!
