Creating a favourable framework for tissue-agnostic research – ESMO
ESMO shared on LinkedIn:
“Advances in Precision Oncology are reshaping Cancer Care, moving towards a biology-based approach rather than the traditional organ-based one. As highlighted by Fabrice Andre, ESMO President-Elect, this approach has often delayed Patient Access to innovative treatments.
ESMO is actively working to create a favourable framework for tissue-agnostic research. The newly released ESMO Tumour-Agnostic Classifier and Screener (ETAC-S) aims to standardise the assessment of molecularly guided therapies, facilitating a common understanding among all stakeholders in the clinical research community.
In this context, ESMO has also updated its recommendations for next-generation sequencing (NGS), expanding testing criteria to include a broader range of tumour types, including hashtag RareCancers. ESMO is committed to supporting this change through resources designed specifically for medical oncologists.
