Important new data from EORTC trials to be presented at ESMO 2022

EORTC will present significant new results, updates, and future EORTC trials in melanoma, soft tissue sarcoma, head and neck, testicular and lung cancer at the ESMO 2022 conference which will take place on September 9 in Paris. Once again, immunotherapy plays a leading role, as do patients’ quality of life studies. Eight abstracts were accepted, with four oral presentations, a proffered paper, and three poster displays.
