One of the recent advances in 21st century medicine is the emergence of gene therapies, drugs that affect the basic biology of genetic disease. The field has seen some notable setbacks in the past, but in recent years has exploded as decades of basic science have been successfully translated into the most complex biologics ever constructed, leading to regulatory approval of several gene therapy products in oncology, hematology, neurology, and ophthalmology indications. These drugs are at the apex of biological manufacturing complexity, and have the potential to be disease modifying or even curative. Evidence-based and innovative quantitative clinical development and lifecycle management strategies will be required as fixtures in the development for these unique drugs in order to reach patients in need.

Development of Gene Therapies: Strategic, Scientific, and Regulatory Considerations is an unparalleled summary of the current scientific, statistical, developmental, and regulatory aspects of gene therapies, which is fast becoming a core area of the biopharmaceutical industry. This edited volume provides a systematic description of core development topics in gene therapies through 19 peer-reviewed chapters written by subject matter experts in the field.

This edited volume is an invaluable resource for business leaders and investors hoping to understand the scientific principles and strategy of a company they may potentially invest in; the family members of someone affected by a genetic disease who wish to understand better how these therapies work and what they might expect as a treatment for a loved one; academic professionals, who want to learn and teach incoming medical, public health, or business students; and seasoned drug developers, who wish to learn more about the about the cutting edge of biopharmaceutical drug development.
