The Role of Genomics in the early detection
and treatment of Prostate Cancer
Session - Clinical Urology
With almost 1 million new cases per year, prostate
cancer is the most prevalent malignancy in men
worldwide and causes about 300,000 deaths
annually. In recent years, large-scale genomic
sequencing projects have catalogued common
genomic alterations, which enabled an improved
molecular classification of prostate tumours and
led to a better understanding of the molecular
mechanisms driving the initiation and progression of
the disease. In this session we will hear from world
leaders in genomics.
