Cancer Advances: News from
the 2007 ASCO Annual Meeting

A Word from the President

Dear Friends,

Cancer research and clinical
care are critical components
of the mission of the American
Society of Clinical Oncology.
More than ever, results of
research studies that take
place in the laboratory are
being applied to patients.
The 2007 ASCO Annual Meeting
theme, Translating Research
Into Practice, reflects the
bridge between research and
patient care.

This year's Cancer Advances
focuses on new treatment
strategies for leukemia and
cancers of the breast, lung,
colon, prostate, liver, head
and neck, and thyroid, as well
as developments regarding
cancer survivorship, childhood
cancer, and complementary and
alternative medicine.

Sincerely,

Gabriel Hortobagyi, MD, FACP
ASCO President
