This symposium focused on discussing the application and development of precision immunotherapy in treating autoimmune disorders, one of the most complex diseases that pose many common challenges to the world.
It aimed to promote knowledge exchange and dialogue to bring hope to patients around the world, particularly in Vietnam.
By establishing a platform for multidisciplinary collaboration, experts from various fields including immunology, genetics, bioinformatics, pharmacology, and clinical practice came together to share insights, discuss challenges, and highlight groundbreaking advancements in the treatment of autoimmune disorders.
Statistics reveal that Vietnam has experienced an increase in the number of people with autoimmune disorders after COVID-19, creating a burden for patients themselves as well as for society.
Like other developing countries, Vietnam is struggling to shrink the gap between patients’ demand and treatment products, as biological drugs or targeted ones are currently unavailable or too expensive in Vietnam, making them difficult to access for the majority, heard the symposium.
