MENA Conference Precision and Molecular Oncology Caring for Patients and Future Generations 2024
MENA Conference Precision and Molecular Oncology Caring for Patients and Future Generations 2024
Treating patients without fully understanding the established and emerging molecular biomarkers for cancer outcomes can limit many aspects of patient care. There are now several approved biomarkers that can help predict prognosis, select appropriate therapy and/or define eligibility for clinical trials, and monitor for cancer recurrence.
The WIN Symposium will provide attendees with deep understanding of the role of such biomarkers, their optimal application, and emerging new omic tests that will inform future biomarker adoption under the two big umbrellas of Precision Genomics and Precision Immunotherapy. Local experience from the UAE, the host country, will also be included to link global evidence to regional practice.
The application of the principles of precision medicine will also be discussed beyond medical and onto radiation oncology. The symposium will also feature a Molecular Tumor Board to exemplify with real patient cases how to use biomarkers to inform therapeutic choices. Finally, a panel discussion will be dedicated to navigating available diagnostic pathways and tests from bench to bedside. We hope you find this meeting educational and practice changing
Worldwide Innovative Network (WIN) Consortium is a non-profit association headquartered in France. The WIN network assembles 27 world-class academic medical centers, industries (pharmaceutical and diagnostic companies), research organizations and patient advocates spanning 18 countries and 5 continents, aligned to launch trials using its genomics and
transcriptomics biomarker platform to bolster Precision Oncology across the world.
WIN is the organizer of the WIN symposia in Precision Oncology. WIN was started by the late John Mendelsohn, President of MD Anderson Cancer Center, US and Thomas Tursz, Director General Gustave Roussy, France. The consortium has since then been led by Richard L. Schilsky, Chair Emeritus of WIN, Former Executive Vice-President & Chief Medical O cer ASCO (2013-2021) and Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago and Josep Tabernero, Vice-Chair of WIN, Head of Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology, Spain and Past-President ESMO. Most recently, Wafik El-Deiry, American Cancer Society Research Professor, Director Legoretta Cancer Center, Associate Dean, Oncologic Sciences, Warren Alpert Medical School, Brown University, has been elected as Chair of WIN Consortium
