Urologic Oncology Research Symposium: "Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: Impact of Macro and Microenvironment on Efficacy“ (2020)

Available on Friday, July 10

Rapid growth in the field of immune checkpoint inhibition has transformed treatment paradigms for genitourinary cancers, and the use of immunotherapy is under active investigation in almost all genitourinary malignancies and disease states. This webcast will provide opportunities for new knowledge about the tumor immune microenvironment of genitourinary tumors as well as host factors that may impact immune checkpoint (IC) response, and explore novel targets as well as non-IC immunotherapy modalities.
