2014 International Conference on Molecular Clinical Oncology - "Precision Medicine"
samedi 4 octobre 2014
- Duree : 1 jour
Lieu : Candiolo Cancer Institute, Italy
Orateur : Plusieurs intervenants
The success of the 2011 Conference “Molecular Clinical Oncology” encouraged us to organise the second edition in Candiolo – Italy. The congress will also be an occasion to present the brand-new building of the Candiolo Cancer Institute, which will be devoted to translational cancer research.
The concept that cancer is a disease of genes, a dogma in molecular oncology, has now acquired an unprecedented clinical value and provides the rationale to set up a classification of tumours based on the presence of defined genetic lesions. Thanks to these advances, the idea of giving a patient drugs tailored to the genetic makeup of the tumour is now becoming commonplace.
The Conference will deal with tumour genotyping, identification of biomarkers for molecularly-based patient stratification, investigation of the mechanisms of drug action and resistance.
The meeting will address these issues ‘from bench to bedside’ in three sessions : (1) Cancer Genes : Drivers and Targets ; (2) Personalised Cancer Medicine ; (3) Tumour Heterogeneity and Resistance.
The call for applications is now open and will close on August 31st.
