Cancer MoonShot 2020 Holds First Coalition Meeting: Inaugural Retreat of Thought Leaders from Government, Scientific and Technology, Healthcare and Biotech Communities Unify on Immediate Next Steps in the War on Cancer.
The Cancer MoonShot 2020 Program is United States’s most comprehensive cancer collaborative initiative seeking to accelerate the potential of combination immunotherapy as the next-generation standard of care in cancer patients. This initiative aims to explore a new paradigm in cancer care by initiating randomized Phase II trials in patients at all stages of disease in 20 tumor types in 20,000 patients within the next 36 months. These findings will inform Phase III trials and the aspirational moonshot to develop an effective vaccine-based immunotherapy to combat cancer by 2020.
