The Cell and Gene Therapy (CGT) Science Series is a quarterly seminar series focused on scientific topics related to cell and gene therapy products. The CGT Science Series is intended to foster scientific exchange between the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO), the American Society of Cell & Gene Therapy (ASGCT), and Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) review staff on a variety of topics that span the CGT product lifecycle. The seminars are planned as 60-minute virtual webinars featuring a speaker from one of the three organizations. The CGT Science Series will enable a deep dive into a specific technical and/or scientific area. Topics in the series may include but are not limited to, nonclinical, CMC, clinical, or post-market phases of development related to CGT product lifecycle.
Moderator:
– Anne-Virginie Eggimann, Tessera
Opening Remarks:
– Cartier Esham, Senior Advisor, Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO)
Speaker:
– Jing Liao, Director, Vector Development and Operations, Alexion Pharmaceuticals
During this webinar, panelists discuss strategies for biotechnology companies to manage economic downturns and weakened investor interest in the biotech industry. Our expert panel of industry leaders share their insights and experiences on how to maintain momentum and emerge stronger during periods of economic uncertainty.
This webinar is designed to provide practical advice and actionable strategies that can be implemented immediately. The panel covers the following topics:
• Effective communication and investor relations strategies during economic downturns
• Actions biotechs can take to cut costs without sacrificing innovation and growth
• How to pitch to investors during weakened investor interest periods
U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) statistics suggest that enforcement will be a top government priority in 2023, including for pharma/life sciences. Warning or untitled letters from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will serve as ammunition for DOJ cases. Statements about product safety will be heavily scrutinized.
Do you know what to watch out for? Has your company trained its employees and marketing agencies on how to appropriately implement the requirements for promotion? What activities require extra vigilance? The prior downturn in enforcement can be linked to the development of a response to COVID-19, which diverted government resources across the board. Now trends suggest the FDA, DOJ, and Office of Inspector General (OIG) will return to active healthcare enforcement in 2023 for violations of the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), False Claims Act and the Anti-Kickback Statute in part attributable to the goal of obtaining additional financial recoveries.
This webinar hosted by the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) has these learning objectives:
—Understand the current trends for government enforcement
—Dissect the compliance implications of increased enforcement on the industry
—Identify specific cases that are clear examples for company concern
—Isolate the key principles for avoiding violations

Short and Long Read Sequencing for AAV Characterization
The inaugural CGT Science Series seminar focused on NGS characterization of AAV and was presented by Dr. Lauriel Earley.
Dr. Earley is a Senior Scientist with Shape Therapeutics who has been studying the basic biology of adeno-associated virus for over decade. During her graduate studies at Oregon Health & Science University, she examined the role of assembly-activating protein under the mentorship of Dr. Hiroyuki Nakai. After receiving her PhD, she joined Dr. Jude Samulski's laboratory at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and took on a project to characterize the intrinsic promoter ability of the inverted terminal repeat sequences from various AAV serotypes. Dr. Earley joined Shape Therapeutics in 2019 and is currently leading their vector platform development team. In addition, Dr. Earley has been an active member of ASGCT since 2012 and is currently serving on the Patient Outreach Committee.
This is the first meeting in a series of conferences cohosted by the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) and Solve M.E. that are designed to foster a private-public engagement and create an R&D roadmap for diagnostics and treatments for Long COVID and Post-infection Diseases.
Objective: Convene stakeholders to advance R&D to diagnose and treat Long COVID and post-infection diseases to:
--Increase awareness among drug developers to the unmet need and business opportunity in these indications
--Establish a knowledge base of emerging research in Long COVID and existing body of data in other post-infection diseases (such as dysautonomia, myalgic encephalomyelitis/ chronic fatigue syndrome, mast cell activation, and others).
--Highlight potential biological targets for therapeutic and preventative approaches
--Engage experts and regulators to inform design of clinical studies
--Establish a pre-competitive collaborative network
