Overview

The 6th Annual Precision Medicine Symposium: An Illustrated Tumor Board is a 2-day live conference that will provide expert guidance on how to apply precision medicine approaches into real-world practice for patients with solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Our expert faculty will review key updates on the latest targeted therapies, with an emphasis on using next-generation sequencing, liquid biopsies, and cytogenetic testing to develop highly individualized treatment plans.

This engaging conference will combine highly informative lectures with a variety of interactive sessions. The agenda features illustrated tumor boards where community oncologists will review their most challenging cases with leading specialists to synthesize evidence-based treatment plans. Our expert faculty will also face off in several Medical Crossfire® debates on whether cutting-edge therapies and technologies are ready for primetime. The fast-paced nature of this symposium will provide you with concise, pan-tumor updates on precision medicine that are most relevant to patient care and give you expert insights into how best to leverage actionable targets to drive clinical decision-making processes in your practice.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Evaluate clinical data on the use of biomarkers in patients who qualify for specific therapies
  • Interpret tumor pathology reports to facilitate evidence-based treatment across malignancies
  • Summarize diagnostic and treatment-related data relevant to optimal multidisciplinary care
  • Assess the most relevant data on the current and evolving role of genomic assays in cancer management
