Curative therapy for metastatic disease in solid malignancies remains frustratingly elusive due to the long recognized problem of tumor cell heterogeneity and emergence of treatment resistant...Speaker: George Poste, DVM, DSc, PhDOCT 16, 2013 | 11:00 AMC.E. CREDITS
Cancer and diabetes are complex diseases that have proven difficult to treat in the clinics. Until recently, most efforts have focused on hitting individual therapeutic targets cleanly. Unfor...Speaker: Ross L. Cagan, PhDOCT 16, 2013 | 11:00 AM
"SuperSelective" primers, by virtue of their unique design, enable only a few molecules of a mutant sequence to generate amplicons in conventional, real-time PCR assays without interference...Speaker: Fred Kramer, PhDOCT 16, 2013 | 11:00 AM
Survival rates for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unacceptably low compared to other common solid tumors. This mortality reflects a weakness in conventional staging, a...Speaker: Michael J Mann, MDOCT 16, 2013 | 10:00 AMC.E. CREDITS
The current paradigm of detecting established cancer (often too late) and treating routinely with cytotoxic drugs is beginning to change. Advanced technologies such as whole genome sequencin...Speaker: Anna Barker, PhDOCT 16, 2013 | 7:00 AMC.E. CREDITS
The adjuvant therapy of choice for superficial bladder cancer is the intravesical instillation of live Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). In spite of the fact that this thera...Speaker: R. Claudio Aguilar, PhD
