Past Conference Information
About Conference
On Tremendous success of our previous Cancer Conferences, The 4th World Congress on Cancer Research & Therapy will take place in the gorgeous city of Rome, Italy in August 13-15, 2018 and the theme of the conference is “Novel Discoveries in Cancer Research & Treatment”. World Cancer Congress(WCC)-2018 is designed to be a relaxed and friendly meeting where delegates and invited speakers have a chance to interact on both a scientific and social basis. We encourage the speakers to stay for the duration of the conference to ensure this interaction.
The development and progression of cancer involves complex interplay between the tumour itself and numerous other cell types and physiological processes. Thus, to study the mechanisms of malignancy in a way that is meaningful requires sophisticated in vivo models. This meeting will focus on the latest developments in the generation of animal models of cancer, and will put particular emphasis on how diverse aspects of the human disease may be faithfully recapitulated in the laboratory. We will discuss how these approaches have enabled us to assemble a whole-body view of cancer initiation and the processes that lead to the dissemination and spread of metastases.
Here are four reasons (Networking and developing new partnerships, Continuing education and skill development, Learning and sharing best practices and Advancement of the profession) why it is important for you to attend our World Cancer Conference.
A special invitation is extended to international colleagues to attend and contribute to the conference. Mark your calendars now and for more details please contact us at cancer@europeanconferences.org

Lung Cancer ‘Dream Team’ to Merge Targeted Therapy, Immunotherapy
More than 35 of the top lung cancer researchers in the United States, dubbed the lung cancer “Dream Team,” are coming together to work on one of the most difficult-to-treat lung cancers – those that have a mutation in a gene called KRAS.
Overcoming Treatment Resistance in Advanced Prostate Cancer
Hormone therapy has long been the center of care for prostate cancer and helps many men diagnosed with the disease live longer. Such treatments reduce or block the production of androgens, the male sex hormones that help prostate cells grow and function, but which also fuel cancer cell growth.
Gene Discovery Offers Hope for Treating ER-positive Breast Cancer
Estrogen is an important female hormone that signals the breasts to form during puberty. It's a necessity for normal mammary gland development. Yet, in some cases, the hormone also helps abnormal breast cells to grow, giving rise to the most common subtype of breast cancer, called estrogen receptor-positive (ER-positive) disease.
Certain Parts of U.S. Rife With Opportunity to Reduce Colorectal Cancer Burden
Colorectal cancer incidence and death rates in the United States have declined significantly in recent decades. But not every part of the country has benefitted equally.
Aspirin and Cancer Prevention: What the Research Really Shows
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) last week released draft recommendations around the use of aspirin to help prevent disease, including both cardiovascular disease (heart attacks and strokes) and colorectal cancer. The inclusion of colorectal cancer as part of these guidelines is a first.
