Immunotherapy has the potential to cure cancer. Today we are joined by a leading figure in cancer studies and research and one who has helped shape the immunotherapy landscape, Dr. Patrick Hwu. The internationally recognized Dr. Hwu previously applied his trade at the National Cancer Institute and is now the President and CEO of one of America’s leading cancer hospitals, the Moffitt Cancer Center. We tap into Dr. Hwu’s wealth of knowledge and experience as he explains what immunotherapy is, its benefits, and how it differs from other cancer treatments. We explore the recent advancements in immunotherapy and what the future of this treatment looks like, why the time to market for new technologies and therapies needs to improve and how the FDA fits in, how to get the right treatments to the right patients at the right time, and how Dr. Hwu and his team are impressing the industry with the way they use math, data aggregation, and large language models (LLMs) to problem-solve. We end with some heartfelt stories of triumph from Dr. Hwu’s career, the hand he’s played in building Florida’s formidable biotech ecosystem, and his words of inspiration for future scientists and a message of hope for families who are currently fighting through treatment.
We have to, as a society, continue to shrink that time between the lab idea, the clinical trial, and the FDA approval for drugs that can really save lives.” — @PatrickHwuMD Key Points From This Episode:Listen to all your favourite podcasts with AI-powered features
