ESMO Symposium on Signalling Pathways in Cancer

Abstract

The 2015 Symposium will concentrate on targeting the MAPK pathway: from RAS to MEK. The programme will cover preclinical data and genetics relevant for the understanding of the functional mechanisms in the RAS/ERK/MEK pathway, regulation of MAPK signalling, the rationale and strategies to inhibiting the pathway, biomarkers, mechanisms of resistance, as well as how to overcome it, and some important interactions with other pathways.

Updates will also be provided on different aspects important for rational clinical development of novel RAS/ERK/MEK inhibitors, as well as an exploration – from a clinical perspective – of recent achievements and data from ongoing research and clinical trials, targeting the axes of the MAPK pathway across a wide range of solid tumours.
