At this KSMO Annual Meeting, the “Asia-Pacific Research Networking Platform for Young Oncologists: It’s Time to Collaborate,” will be organized as a special session. This event will feature six insightful presentations from talented young oncologists representing Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Japan, and Australia. We will explore a range of topics on multinational studies in the Asia-Pacific region, including the challenges and opportunities in Asia-Pacific oncology; experiences in cross-border clinical research; overcoming clinical barriers such as ethical, cultural, and regulatory considerations; and how to leverage technology to overcome these limitations. We look forward to your participation and valuable contributions to foster collaboration and innovation in oncology research across the Asia-Pacific region.


이번 KSMO Annual Meeting에서 “Asia-Pacific Research Networking Platform for Young Oncologists: It’s Time to Collaborate”라는 특별 세션이 마련됩니다. 이 행사에서는 한국, 싱가포르, 태국, 일본, 호주를 대표하는 재능 있는 젊은 종양학자들의 여섯 가지 통찰력 있는 발표가 있을 예정입니다. 아시아-태평양 지역에서 다국적 연구를 위한 다양한 주제를 탐구할 것이며, 여기에는 아시아-태평양 종양학의 도전과 기회, 국경을 넘는 임상 연구의 경험, 윤리적, 문화적, 규제적 고려사항과 같은 임상적 장벽 극복, 그리고 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 기술을 활용 방안 등이 논의될 것입니다. 아시아-태평양 지역의 종양학 연구에서 KSMO가 이니셔티브를 가지고 협력과 혁신을 도모하는 기회가 될 것으로 생각됩니다. 

Scientific Symposium 1 will cover the present and future of breast cancer treatment. The first lecture will address the unique characteristics of breast cancer in pre-menopausal women and the treatment options based on these characteristics. The second lecture will feature a direct account from the developer on the journey of developing the targeted drug, Capivasertib. Finally, the third lecture will delve deeply into strategies for overcoming drug resistance in breast cancer.


이번 KSMO 2024에서 진행되는 Scientific Symposium 1 세션은 유방암 치료의 현재와 미래에 대한 내용을 담고 있다. 첫 번째 강연에서는 폐경 전 여성의 유방암의 고유한 특징과 이를 바탕으로 한 치료 옵션을 다룰 예정이다. 두 번째 강연에서는 타겟 항암제인 Capivasertib의 개발 여정을 개발자로부터 직접 들을 수 있다. 마지막으로, 세 번째 강연에서는 유방암에서의 약물 내성 극복 전략을 심도 있게 논의할 예정이다.

While targeting immune checkpoint molecules like PD-1/PD-L1 and CTLA-4 has significantly advanced cancer treatment, a substantial number of patients do not respond to these immune checkpoint inhibitors. This session will explore emerging immune checkpoint targets, including those expressed on T cells and B cells, as well as macrophage-focused strategies based on recent research. Emphasis will also be placed on identifying biomarkers to select patients who may benefit the most from these innovative therapies. Attendees will gain insights into the complex biology, latest research, and clinical status of these novel immune checkpoint targets, as well as their potential to enhance the efficacy of existing treatments.


PD-1/PD-L1와 CTLA-4와 같은 면역관문 분자를 표적으로 하는 치료법은 암 치료에 큰 진전을 가져왔지만, 여전히 많은 환자들이 이러한 면역관문 억제제에 반응하지 않는다. 이 세션에서는 최근 연구를 바탕으로 T 세포와 B 세포에서 발현되는 새로운 면역관문 표적과 대식세포 중심의 전략을 탐구하고, 이러한 혁신적인 치료에 반응하는 환자를 효과적으로 선별하기 위한 새로운 바이오마커에 대한 내용도 다룰 예정이다. 참가자들은 이러한 새로운 면역관문 표적의 생물학적 기전과 최신 연구 및 임상 상황, 그리고 기존 치료의 효과를 높일 수 있는 가능성에 대해 통찰해 볼 수 있을 것이다.

In this session titled "Oncology drug development: Translating biomarkers into breakthroughs," Professor Seung Bum Park from Seoul National University will introduce tumor treatment strategies that modulate the tumor microenvironment using the HMGB1 marker. Additionally, Professor Paul Workman from the Institute of Cancer Research, UK, will discuss the high potential of NXP800, a drug developed to activate GCN2 as a new therapeutic target, which has received FDA Fast Track and Orphan Drug designations for ovarian and bile duct cancers. Professor Seong-Wook Lee from Dankook University will also present his work on developing innovative RNA-based therapies targeting the telomerase reverse transcriptase enzyme for challenging cancers such as brain and liver cancer. These presentations are expected to greatly enhance understanding in the field of targeted oncology therapies by focusing on drug development targeting new markers.
