SUMMARY:3rd Measuring Patient Engagement Summit
DESCRIPTION:Patient engagement has shifted from a “nice to have” to a strategic necessity. \nWith regulators expecting defensible evidence\, executives demanding clear ROI\, and funding under tighter scrutiny\, every engagement initiative must show measurable value. Yet many organizations still struggle to demonstrate the true impact of their work. \nThe 3rd Measuring Patient Engagement Summit is the only event dedicated entirely to transforming patient engagement into credible\, quantifiable outcomes. Over three days\, more than 70 senior leaders from pharma\, biotech\, and patient advocacy will come together to share frameworks\, tools\, and real-world approaches that prove how patient insights drive results across development\, access\, and commercialization. \nThrough interactive workshops\, case studies\, and collaborative sessions\, attendees will: \n\nShift from anecdotal reporting to robust\, outcome-based evidence\nBenchmark strategies\, co-develop frameworks\, and measure impact across multi-year programs\nTranslate engagement activities into meaningful influence for regulators\, executives\, and patient communities\nWalk away with peer-tested methods\, practical tools\, and actionable insights to elevate engagement from activity to strategic value\n\nMeasuring activity isn’t enough anymore – demonstrating impact is what moves the industry forward. \nThis summit offers a unique non-competitive environment where you can benchmark your approaches\, collaborate directly with peers\, and gain practical tools to clearly demonstrate the value of patient engagement. For teams facing tighter budgets\, heightened scrutiny\, and rising expectations from stakeholders\, it’s the essential gathering to shift from anecdotal stories to evidence-backed impact\, and to elevate patient‑centric initiatives into strategic\, measurable drivers of organizational success. \nTo know more visit: https://ter.li/8hkio4

SUMMARY:Investigative & Preclinical Toxicology Summit 2026
DESCRIPTION:Optimize Model Selection\, Accelerate Timelines\, Improve Predictivity of Toxicity \nDates: May 12-14 | Location: Boston\, MA \nWhy Attend \nWith nearly 90% of drug candidates failing in the clinic and one-third of those failures driven by safety preclinical toxicology has reached a critical inflection point. Traditional models are no longer sufficient to predict human risk\, leading to costly late-stage attrition and stalled pipelines. \nThe 2026 summit marks a new era for toxicology. Following the FDA’s 2025 roadmap to reduce reliance on animal testing\, adoption of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs)\, including in vitro\, microphysiological\, and computational models\, is accelerating. CROs and technology developers are releasing innovative platforms\, but challenges remain around predictivity\, validation standards\, and regulatory alignment. \nWhat You’ll Learn \nThis industry-led forum is the only meeting dedicated to benchmarking what truly works in predictive toxicology. Key focus areas include: \n\nEvaluating in vivo\, in vitro\, and in silico strategies\nSharing real IND case studies\nDefining fit-for-purpose model selection across modalities\nAdvancing NAM adoption while ensuring regulatory compliance\n\nWho Should Attend \nIf you are responsible for: \n\nDe-risking first-in-human decisions\nImplementing innovative toxicology strategies\nImproving safety translation from preclinical to clinic\n\n…this summit is your essential forum to separate innovation from hype and build strategies that stand up both clinically and regulatorily. \n📥 Download the Event Guide to explore the full agenda\, speakers\, and registration details: \nOrganiser Name: Hanson Wade\nContact: Nisha Poyser-Reid\ninfo@hansonwade.com\n(+1) 617 455 4188

SUMMARY:2nd Operationalize: Expanded Access Programs Summit West
DESCRIPTION:Across the West Coast\, Expanded Access Programs are entering a new phase. More companies are launching EAPs earlier in development\, supporting patients for longer durations\, and extending access beyond the U.S. into increasingly complex global markets. What was once a reactive\, exception-based activity is now a visible\, repeatable function – bringing heightened expectations around governance\, post-trial access\, sustainability\, and real-world insight generation\, all while ensuring patients are not delayed or disadvantaged. \nThe 2nd Operationalize: Expanded Access Programs Summit West arrives at a critical moment. Purpose-built for West Coast biotech and pharma teams\, this summit brings together senior leaders across Access\, Medical Affairs\, Clinical Operations\, Regulatory\, and Clinical Supply to share how EAPs are being designed\, governed\, and scaled in today’s environment. \nOver three focused days\, the summit tackles the most pressing questions facing EAP teams in 2026 – from navigating evolving U.S. and global regulatory expectations\, to enabling providers and patient advocates\, designing post-trial access strategies\, managing long-duration and rare disease programs\, and applying real-world insights without slowing access. \nThis is not a theoretical discussion. It is a peer-led\, non-competitive forum for teams responsible for delivering access at scale – and for those shaping what Expanded Access must become next. \nTo know more visit: https://ter.li/gk0u1gt1
