SUMMARY
The Masters in Therapeutic Oncology Summit- Genitourinary (GU) Edition (MaTOS-GU) is a very innovative event that offers new approaches to the challenges in learning and updating current treatments in GU tumors. The summit is mainly a gathering of key opinion leaders (KOLS) in the area of GU oncology that meet for 2 full days to review the latest information and developments in GU oncology sharing their research among themselves and discussing challenging situations in the real world when the knowledge is applied to daily practice.
Topics go from early molecular diagnosis and testing to epigenomics and the challenge to find a role for minimal residual disease (MRD) and its application in patients that have completed therapy from surgery to systemic therapy. The idea is also discussing the role of multidisciplinary approach to early stage GU cancers and also find a multidisciplinary role in advanced cancers where there are still opportunities to help patients with current interventions from radiotherapy and other local interventions to palliative care.
