  • (1888PressRelease) February 18, 2016 - Biologics is a fast expanding area in the Pharmaceutical industry with growth rates 2 -3 times as fast as chemical entities.* With the global vaccine market expected to reach $84.44 billion by 2022, now is the time to engage with industry experts. Immunogenicity continues to be a major concern for the field of science, due to its impact on safety and efficacy. As such, immunogenicity assessment of a biopharmaceutical drug's immunogenic potential remains at the forefront of drug development.

    The 2016 event will address the real challenges with immunogenicity including assay assessment, the role of aggregation, the introduction of nanobodies and much more.
