Stay informed on developments in cancer and oncology diagnosis, prevention and treatment through these curated webinars. As the race toward a cure for cancer continues, advances in cancer research are constantly revealed as innovation in the field of oncology progresses.
Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has increasingly been applied to the treatment of small renal masses. Because of space limitations and the size of the robot at the patient side, the standa...
Antibodies have become one of the most important tools in life science research, allowing the detection, quantitation, and determination of changes in proteins and other molecules with respe...
This presentation will review the utility of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) and genomic testing in the management of early stage prostate cancer and show when and if such tests should be used al...
Activating mutations in PIK3CA are frequent in human breast cancer, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase alpha (PI3Kα) inhibitors have been approved for therapy. To characterize determinants...
Join Branden Hopkinson, Product Marketing Manager at Visiopharm, who will talk about using AI classifiers to find patterns in your images and which artificial intelligence method will work b...
To date the anatomic extent of tumor (TNM-classification) has been by far the most important factors to predict the prognosis of cancer patients. However, this classification provides limited...
This lecture will encompass the learning experience I have had over my 14,000 RALP cases. We will present an evidence based prospective data collection and analysis of RALP outcomes. We will...
In this webinar, we will be discussing some of our most recent testing using our Cas9 proteins, Cas9 RNP nickases in a variety of human cell types, including primary T-cells. Cas nucleases wh...
Blockade of CTLA-4 and PD-1, members of the B7/CD28 family, have proven to be the most successful cancer immunotherapies to date. While the current therapeutic focus remains on B7/CD28 family...
Effective immunotherapy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is hampered by the lack of suitable tumor-specific antigens. To address this challenge, we have combined high-throughput fl...
There has been a great deal of renewed attention in immuno-oncology over the last decade. Therapies for cancer are being developed, approved, and administered that can either initiate,...
This webinar covers our latest solutions for improved culture of primary and xenotransplanted tumor cells. Get insights into dissociation of fresh tumor samples into viable single-cell suspe...
As the most common female malignancy, breast cancer is the most likely reason that a woman will die of cancer around the world. Breast cancer mortality has dropped in the U.S. by 35% since 19...
Background: Localized prostate cancer is notable for tumor heterogeneity, and immune heterogeneity within tumor versus benign areas. B7-H3, a member of the B7 superfamily, is highly expresse...
In prior work, we have pursued how tumor reactive monoclonal antibody (mAb), together with activators of innate immune cells, like NK cells, can augment antibody dependent cell-mediated cytot...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer among Americans, and the second deadliest. Its pathogenesis results from an interplay between environmental factors that influence biol...
Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive form of breast cancer, characterized by the characteristic lack of receptors such as human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2), t...
Changes in transcriptional regulation are thought to be one of the key drivers of carcinogenesis. Although next-generation sequencer revolutionized transcriptome analysis, there are limitati...
Cas9 based therapeutics have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of genetic diseases. However, safe and effective methods for delivering Cas9 protein, gRNA and donor DNA need to be...
Background: Despite the immunogenicity and safety profile of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines, the importance of vaccine-induced antigen-specific T cell responses is unclear across clinical tria...
Learning Objectives 1. Identify 3 obstacles that inhibit the immune cell response to cancer. 2. List 3 aspects of T cells antitumor function that can be improved with costimulatory signals....
The analysis of circulating biomarkers in a patient’s blood holds significant potential for early disease detection and disease monitoring. Circulating DNA is the most commonly studied...
With over 265,000 new cases per year and over 50,000 deaths, breast and ovarian cancers represent a significant health burden in the USA. Prior work has demonstrated that CD4 helper T c...
A subset of women with ovarian cancer will present with an apparently isolated adnexal mass. Many of these women will have early stage ovarian cancer with a relatively good prognosis. Unfortu...
Metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) refractory to secondary hormonal treatments such as enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate are the most lethal of prostate cancers. In thi...
PacBio Sequencing simultaneously provides long sequence reads, high consensus accuracy, minimal sequence bias, and methylation detection. I will highlight new advances and updates on applying...
