Symposium
DNA REPAIR INHIBITION AND RADIOTHERAPY: MOVING TOWARDS
CLINIC
14:15 - 15:30 | LONDRA
For many years the radiosensitising effects of DNA repair inhibitors have been presented at ESTRO.
But only recently have these agents progressed to clinical testing in combination with radiotherapy and
systemic anti-cancer agents.
In this symposium three internationally leading researchers will present groundbreaking work evaluating
the most advanced class of DNA repair antagonists: PARP inhibitors.
Jan Schellens will report on studies combining PARP inhibitors with chemotherapy while Marcel Verheij
will describe the challenges associated with combining PARP inhibitors and radiation. Finally David
Raben will present a novel strategy combining PARP inhibition with radiation and the EGFR targeting
agent cetuximab.
Chair: A. Chalmers (UK)
Co-chair: M. Buglione (Italy)
