Catalysts to discovery

POETIC has established a strong foothold in both the scientific and pharmaceutical industries. As such, POETIC has successfully built the infrastructure needed to conduct investigator-initiated trials as well as partner with industry to conduct industry-sponsored trials. With continued partnerships amongst the world’s leading biological and technical firms, we are able to broaden our knowledge and transform it into novel clinical advancements.

We also run several research initiatives and clinical trials that are catalysts to discovery. By gathering knowledge and insights from various resources, we are positioning ourselves for growth to therapeutic outreach on a global scale.

Clinical trials

One of our goals is to provide and conduct early clinical trials with a primary emphasis on rational, biologically based drug development.  We use findings from our biology initiatives to design clinical trials that encourage inclusion of promising agents. These trials help to increase the access to and availability of new agents to pediatric cancer patients.

Our members provide the research strength needed to execute and complete intensive phase I and II studies of novel treatment agents.

Biology initiatives

To help advance our research, we operate a series of biology initiatives. These centers of excellence are integral to POETIC’s commitment to building an extensive knowledge base of biology of pediatric, adolescent, and young adult cancers, and translating what we’ve learned directly into new therapeutic approaches. Ultimately, our goal is to use the information we acquire not only to improve therapy for patients in our trials, but to also help develop treatment for those in need around the world.

Streamlined processes

Since our organization consists of many members, partners and resources around the world, our operations have been standardized to ensure the utmost quality and consistency in our research. By streamlining our organizational processes, like protocol review and budgeting, we provide nimble and streamlined trial setup and are focus on the work that matters most.
