Most recently he was a Principal Scientist in Product Design and Innovation at AstraZeneca, where he was responsible for finding and implementing new science and technology in the Pharmaceutical Development group.<\/p>\n

Marcel has provided project leadership and led product development teams responsible for the delivery of drug projects from initial concept design through late stage development and regulatory submission in readiness for launch. This has included a focus on enabling technologies for drug delivery. He has also led teams at the drug discovery-development interface, assessing the level of chemistry manufacturing and control (CMC) technical risk and defining product design strategies in early development. Project experience has covered molecules across a range of disease and therapy areas with substantial experience in the oncology field.<\/p>\n

CellCentric is a development stage biotechnology company focused on a first-in-class p300\/CBP bromodomain inhibitor drug, CCS1477, to treat specific cancers. The company investigated over 50 potential epigenetic-related drug targets, before focusing on the twin histone acetyl transferases p300\/CBP. An earlier programme, based on an arginine methyltransferase target, was licenced to Takeda Pharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n

CellCentric is a privately held business, with Morningside Venture Investments as its lead investor. It is UK based (Cambridge; Manchester; Oxford), with multiple international operations and collaborations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
