With divided government, compromises will be difficult and time consuming to reach, but will be necessary to deal with big issues the U.S. faces. Although the fiscal cliff has been averted for now, an unsteady economy and concerns over U.S. debt remain. This session will feature two former White House Chiefs of Staff who have served in the trenches under President Bill Clinton and President George W. Bush. BIO’s CEO and former Congressman, James C.

There are only two currently approved single agent therapies for this serious disease, but combination treatment regimens are showing tremendous promise yielding a significant increase in overall survival rates. With several phase II and III trials now in the works and positive readouts expected in 2013, the industry is becoming much more intrigued by this potentially underserved space. Hear clinical experts entrenched in the pancreatic cancer late stage treatment pipeline proffer their insights on the future of the disease.
