Capital Talks: Cracking the Code-Value Creation in Oncology Innovation
Gregory Grunberg, MD, MBA, Head, Life Sciences (North America), Temasek
What is the secret code for value creation in oncology innovation? Is it achieved by leveraging AI for care delivery or AI for drug discovery? Is it mechanism, stage, indication, or team? Drug or platform? Data or promise? Heavily capitalized or lean and mean? Do you go where the strategics are hunting or build it so they follow? Join 4 panelists who, through a capital market lens, help crack the code: how to create value in oncology innovation.

BREAKOUT DISCUSSION:The BIOSECURE Act and Its Potential Implications
Matt Wetzel, Partner, Goodwin Procter LLP
The BIOSECURE Act is in the early stages of legislation in Congress. It is difficult to predict its final language; however, the fact that similar bills are receiving bipartisan support increases the potential likelihood of its passage into law. This panel will focus on whether oncology companies might consider updating (or implementing) processes for list-based screening of their counterparties (vendors, suppliers, partners) to ensure the prompt discovery and identification of potentially impacted entities.

Democratizing Access to Clinical Trials
Dave Stevenson, Managing Director, Merck Global Health Innovation Fund
Biopharma companies need more trial participants. Regulators and payers want more representative trial populations. Patient advocacy groups desire earlier and wider access to clinical trials.

Improving Oncology Care Delivery and Health Equity
Maya R. Said, ScD, Founder & CEO, Outcomes4Me
We are at a critical crossroad in cancer innovation: with more cancer drugs approved in the past 5 years than in the prior 15 years, and more than 50% of clinical trials focusing on cancer patients, how do we make sure we do not only improve outcomes for individual patients but also address rather than exacerbate disparities in cancer care? What needs to change to unlock the rapid dissemination of innovation and the development of the right therapies and technologies to address existing and emerging cancer disparities? This panel will discuss how technology, AI, novel care delivery models, evolving regulatory approaches, and new reimbursement and business models can drive guideline-concordant care, address cancer disparities and inequities, and unlock diversity in clinical trials. We will also explore the convergence of technology with value-based care and how improving the patient experience-in partnership with patients-can support health equity and improve patient outcomes for everyone.
