START Biotech Early Development Leaders Roundtable – San Francisco
You’re invited to a roundtable on November 10th at 7:30-9am at Hotel Kabuki to discuss early-phase oncology research
Join us for a panel discussion on “From First Dose to First Data: Lessons Learned at the Milestones That Matter”.
During this time, our panelists will cover how every early-phase program advances on a handful of moments: first patient dosed, enrollment on pace, the first real signal in the data. Hit those moments early and everything downstream moves with them, including the terms of the next round. Most of that time is won or lost at the site. Community-based networks change the math: patients already in care in their own communities before the protocol arrives, fully dedicated investigators with deep clinical expertise, multiple sites opening on one central infrastructure. This interactive discussion brings together biotech leaders who have been through it: where timelines slipped, which site decisions bought or burned months, and how engaged with START drove clinical progress and moved development strategy and funding forward.

- Navid Hafez, MD, Director of Clinical Research, START Los Angeles
- Eric Humke, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer, EpiBiologics
