Karolinska Institutet Summer School on Targeted Cancer Therapies
Course - Stockholm, Sweden
Targeted therapies, which include monoclonal antibodies and small-molecules, have significantly changed the treatment of cancer over the past 10 years. Although traditional cytotoxic chemotherapy is still the widely applied treatment for different types of cancer, targeted therapies are now an important component of treatment for many common malignancies.
Targeted therapy has raised new questions about the tailoring of cancer treatment to an individual patient's tumor, the assessment of drug effectiveness and toxicity, and the economics of cancer care.
The meeting will cover the most exciting and promising advances in targeted therapies. The event is designed to promote interactions between young researchers (PhD students and postdoctoral fellows) and leaders in different fields of cancer research to discuss challenges and opportunities in this area.
