KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Circumventing the Immune Responses to Protein Therapeutics: De-Immunization Strategies

Wednesday, October 20, 2021 · 8:30 a.m. · Eastern Time (US & Canada)
About This Webinar

The immune response to protein-therapeutics (immunogenicity) is an important safety and efficacy concern during drug development and regulation. The potential consequences of immunogenicity range from loss in quality life to a life-threatening situation. Because most protein-therapeutics address serious medical conditions many are approved even if some fraction of the population elicits an immune response. One strategy to circumvent immunogenicity is de-immunization. My presentation will highlight the most recent advances and remaining challenges for de-immunization of protein therapeutics, with a special focus on T cell epitope identification and deletion.

Commissioners Fellow & Biologist
Dr. Jankowski is a research reviewer with the US Food and Drug Administration in the Office of Tissues and Advanced Therapies. He is part of an active research laboratory and his research interests lie in the regulatory-science associated with the licensure of the next generation of therapeutic proteins. A key focus of his research activities has been to understand the immune response to protein therapeutics, which can significantly affect the efficacy and safety of these drugs. He uses a combination of computational, in vitro and ex vivo approaches in his work. Dr. Jankowski received his Ph.D. from Rutgers University, NJ and was subsequently selected for the highly competitive Commissioner’s Fellowship program at the FDA. His research has been published in high impact journals such as Nature and Nature Chemical Biology.
