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)

14:15 > Challenges in combining radiation and chemo-radiation with PARP

inhibitors
