Topics Covered: An increased understanding of the biology and etiology of cancer has resulted in an improved ability to design therapeutic regimens. Rationally designed therapeutics, including targeted agents, modified dosing strategies, and strategic combinations of agents and therapeutic modalities, have led to improved survival without significant increases in treatment-related toxicities. This conference will update attendees on recent advances in the treatment of cancer, including a review of the biology of specific tumor types and currently available data from emerging clinical trials.
