The Complement Advisory Board Fireside Chat: An Overview of the Complement Therapeutics Landscape
9:00 am
- Discussing the dynamic landscape of complement drug development, exploring novel targets and diverse therapeutic modalities and their potential across various diseases, including kidney, CNS, and ophthalmology
- Addressing critical operational and clinical challenges in complement therapy, delivery, and oral formulations
- Focussing on the scientific and translational hurdles that remain, covering the importance of developing robust biomarkers, predictive models the promising role of complement inhibitors in combination therapies
Wednesday 3rd December 2025
Repurposing Preclinical Models for Mechanistic Insights & Target Validation to Uncover the Next Generation of Complement Inhibitors
9:30 am
- Reframing the primary value of preclinical models to focus on the validation of specific aspects of a drugs mechanism of action
- Deep-diving into an example to show how humanized complement models can show the effective inhibition of C3 and C3-driven Kidney model
- Confirming target engagement, particularly for clinically validated targets where the functional outcome is more directly anticipated
