Significant advances in cancer therapeutics have created new opportunities for the development of combinatorial therapies that optimize the therapeutic benefit to patients without an attendant increase in toxicity. Presentations will include illustrations of successful pre-clinical and clinical strategies for the development of novel therapeutic combinations as well as a discussion of the challenges in bringing some of these advances to clinical application.
