Oncology is an area of high unmet medical need, providing fertile grounds for rapid growth. The lack of effective therapies for most of the advanced cancers, coupled with substantial progress in basic cancer biology and new technologies, provide unparalleled potential for innovation and transformational science. At GSK, Oncology R&D is focused on building industry-leading portfolios in 3 cutting-edge areas of science: Immuno-Oncology, Cancer Epigenetics, and Cell Therapy. Our vision is to achieve a long-term leadership position in Oncology by delivering Transformational Medicines that Maximize Patient Survival.
Medical Affairs is a critical bridge between R&D and the commercial organization to ensure that our medicines reach the appropriate patients. To this end, this is a critical role to ensure oncology resource and activities are aligned and deployed to business priorities in the countries. Medical needs to build scientific expertise to provide greater insight and significant external presence to support entry in to the highly competitive Oncology space.
