8th DDR Inhibitors Summit 2025 [01/28/25]

Making Strides in Targeting PARP, ATR, ATM, WEE1 and POLθ

AstraZeneca and Merck are at the forefront of DDR inhibitor development, focusing on next-generation PARP inhibitors and innovative combination therapies. At the same time, Roche and Novartis are pushing their own DDR-targeting pipelines, exploring emerging targets such as USP1 and WRN - these combined efforts are making DDR inhibitor drug development an increasingly dynamic and transformative area.

Additionally, biotechs like Artios Pharma and Repare Therapeutics are expanding the field with cutting-edge research and clinical programs, using innovative platforms to understand cancer biology, discover novel DDR targets, and identify patients most likely to benefit from the treatments.

In light of these advancements, the 8th Annual DDR Inhibitors Summit, returning to Boston this January, is the community hotspot for biopharma drug developers and researchers to collaborate on advancing DDR therapeutics.

Join 100+ experts from discovery, preclinical, translational, regulatory, and clinical roles as they unite to harness the potential of DDR inhibitors for cancer treatment and enhance patient outcomes.
