International Conference on Biotherapy to be held in the US
Date:10/29/2010

ctor of the BioTherapeutics, Education & Research (BTER) Foundation, one of the conference co-sponsors. "The BTER Foundation has been raising funds for years to produce high-quality educational programs like this. We are delighted to bring ICB-2010 to America, and bring Biotherapy to the next level." During the conference, both the IBS and the BTER Foundation will be holding their annual meetings. At its annual meeting, the BTER Foundation will be presenting its first William S. Baer Award for Outstanding Service for the Advancement of Biotherapy.

ICB-2010 will include general education sessions, presentations of cutting-edge research, and hands-on clinical training for therapists. According to Dr. Aletha Tippett, Conference Co-Chair and President of the co-sponsoring Hope for Healing Foundation, "we have already registered participants from across the globe - physicians, nurses and physical therapists, biologists and researchers, journalists and the general public." Unusual among clinical and research conferences is the fact that patients will also be lecturing about their experiences with biotherapy, and available to answer questions from faculty, attendees, and the media.

Two biotherapeutic modalities have already made their way into mainstream medicine: maggot therapy and leech therapy. Both organisms are produced according to Good Manufacturing Practices in FDA-regulated laboratories. Marketing clearance for manufacturers of medicinal maggots and leeches was granted in 2004. Clinical studies are underway to define the safety and efficacy of bee venom therapy, bacteriophage therapy, helminthic therapy and ichthyotherapy; updates on these and other treatments will be presented during the conference.
