Oncology Central is delighted to be hosting, "Practical clinical aspects of immuno-oncology" a 2-day online symposium exploring the latest developments in cancer immunotherapy, chaired by Professor Angus Dalgleish (St George's, University of London).
Immunotherapy is a huge and still-emerging area within oncology, which is having a significant impact on the way patients with certain malignancies are being treated. This year, the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) named cancer immunotherapy as their clinical cancer Advance of the Year for a second consecutive year, highlighting its continuing importance in changing the face of cancer care.
At the end of June, Oncology Central is hosting a free 2-day online educational symposium, chaired by Professor Angus Dalgleish (St George's, University of London) delivering a series of talks and discussions by leading experts in the field, aiming to review the current status of immunotherapy in the clinic.
This event will be delivered on a highly interactive platform, and will offer delegates a unique opportunity to further explore recent trends and data in the field of cancer immunotherapy, as well as the opportunity to discuss and debate how these may impact everyday practice. Our experts will present on key areas such as rational combinations of immunotherapies with other therapies and management of therapy-related toxicities, as well as looking at optimization of these therapies and discussing the need for better biomarkers of response.
"As immunotherapy continues to make waves within oncology, we are excited to be able to offer this unique, fully online event in collaboration with some of the leading experts in the field," commented Jade Parker, Editor of Oncology Central. "Our encompassing programme aims to deliver a well-rounded update on the impact these therapies have had in the clinic thus far and to look to the future of the field."
Speakers already confirmed include Roy Herbst of Yale School of Medicine (CT, USA) and Hossein Borghaei of Fox Chase Cancer Center (PA, USA), with more to be announced soon.
This online symposium will be certified for CME credit. To find out more and to register for this free event, please click here: http://conferences.oncology-central.com/
