Event
12 June 2024, Virtual
Since the launch of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan in 2021, science and technology have not stood still. New and innovative approaches towards cancer detection, diagnosis and treatment are arriving at an ever rapid pace, and include, but are not limited to, for example, cell therapy, radioligand therapy and the use of liquid biopsy. ECO’s Community 365 Roundtable on New Treatment Paradigms will discuss the exciting potential of some of these approaches and the policy challenges of introducing them more widely in countries across Europe.
Experts from the clinician, patient, governmental and political environments will join us at the event to provide their experience and perspectives. Results of the discussions will be published in a detailed action report.
Please join us on Wednesday 12 June at 15:00-17:30 CEST for what promises to be a most illuminating conversation!
