???? Oncology Bytes – COA 2025 | Featuring Dr. Bilal Abid
In this episode, Dr. Bilal Abid, an academic clinician scientist based in Houston, discusses one of the most pressing challenges in oncology: building equitable access to cellular therapies in community settings.
Drawing from his experience at COA 2025 and his clinical work, Dr. Abid covers:
- How community practices are preparing for bispecifics and CAR-T therapy
- The disparity in access based on ZIP code and insurance.
- Why building uniform infrastructure for cellular therapy is essential for health equity
- The "offensive triangle" model between academic centers, community oncologists, and pharma partners
