Presentation
Breast cancer represents the front runner in cancer research in many aspects.
First, this is a common, chronic and lethal disease where medical interventions
are successfully inducing a continuous decline in mortality in spite of increasing
incidence. Second, biology drives the entire diagnostic-therapeutic work up of
these patients. This is why, nowadays, a breast multidisciplinary team should also
include pathologists, molecular biologists, oncogeneticists besides the “classic”
clinical specialties. Third, many highly effective interventions are available for each
step of the diagnostic and therapeutic work-up of these patients. The increased
complexity of the disease, the availability of multiple effective choices and the
high expectations of our patients are raising the bar of clinical excellence in this
field.
With this goal in mind, the Programme of this international Conference includes
lectures on molecular characterization, updated treatments of early and advanced
disease, management of difficult cases and hereditary syndromes.
Clinical case discussions and debates are planned to allow a continuous and
fruitful exchange of experiences and opinions between speakers and participants.
This 11th Breast Cancer Conference includes a highly qualified international
faculty, but will maintain its characteristics of a friendly forum where international
opinion leaders and attendees will exchange experiences and share the most
exiting advances.
In order to reward scientific excellence and to foster international cooperation,
the International Scientific Committee of the 11th AIBCC will award the 5th
International Prize for Breast Cancer Research to a scientist who has published a
breakthrough paper in the previous year.
We welcome medical oncologists, pathologists, breast surgeons, radiation
oncologists and basic scientists to listen to breast cancer leaders and to exchange
experiences in a friendly atmosphere.
Addressed to
Gynaecologists and obstretrics, medical oncologists, pathologists, radiation
oncologists, radiologists, surgeons; biologists and nurses.
