The Need For CTRG In Asia PDF Print E-mail

Our Purpose 

  • There exists a need to introduce new cancer therapies into Asia-Pacific.
  • The epidemiology of cancer in Asians and Caucasians are different.
  • Hence, there also exists a need to test new drugs in cancers more commonly seen in Asia-Pacific.
  • Pharmacogenetics may be different in Asians and Caucasians, leading to differences in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cancer medication. Asians may experience different side effects and require different drug dosages compared to Caucasians.
  • Biology and therapeutic sensitivity of cancer in Asians and Caucasians may be different.
  • Assisting in global drug development by providing high quality data in a timely fashion.
