March 17th-19th 2015
The Central Pillar for Forging the Sustainable Path Towards Personalised
Medicine
World CDx Berlin 2015 will guide drug and diagnostic developers from understanding disease heterogeneity and the
complex underlying biology through to the drug-companion diagnostic pairing development cycle accelerating them
to market.
World CDx Berlin 2015 will enable the drug-CDx community to stratify and define patient subpopulations that will
respond to drugs in development, by harnessing novel technologies that validate predictive biomarkers.
Further, World CDx Berlin 2015 will shine the spotlight on rapidly evolving Drug-CDx partnering models along with
defining best practice to navigate the changing regulatory guidelines and the fragmented reimbursement landscapes
