Physicians’ Education Resource® (PER®), a leading resource for continuing medical education, will host the 2nd Annual Precision Medicine Symposium: An Illustrated Tumor Board.
“We look forward to hosting our precision medicine conference for the second year in a row,” said Phil Talamo, president of PER®. “This meeting is designed to take a targeted approach to treatment, focusing on how biomarkers and testing strategies can personalize care to patients, often times in a tumor agnostic setting.”
Across a two-day, pan-tumor symposium, expert faculty will cover the latest topics in solid and liquid tumors, including lung, breast, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, skin cancers and hematologic malignancies. The educational meeting will feature high-impact sessions and keynote lectures that will focus on practical takeaways regarding the latest updates in next-generation sequencing, liquid biopsy and cytogenetic testing. The program will review updates in targeted treatment, including tumor-agnostic indications based solely on genomic markers and other biomarkers. The tumor board overall will emphasize the role of advanced genetic panel testing and the use of targeted therapies, with a focus on data that is most relevant to patient care.
