2017 ESMO CONGRESS 8– 12 September 2017 | Madrid, Spain Supported by Eli Lilly and Company has not influenced the content of this publication
Letter from Prof Jean Yves-Blay Dear Colleagues It is my pleasure to present this WSN slide set which has been designed to highlight and summarise key findings in sarcoma from the major congresses in 2017. This slide set specifically focuses on the ESMO 2017 Congress. The area of clinical research in oncology is a challenging and ever changing environment. Within this environment we all value access to scientific data and research that helps to educate and inspire further advancements in our roles as scientists, clinicians and educators. I hope you find this review of the latest developments in sarcoma of benefit to you in your practice. I would like to thank our WSN members Drs Piotr Rutkowski and Claudia Valverde for their roles as Editors – for prioritising abstracts and reviewing slide content. The slide set you see before you would not be possible without their commitment and hard work. And finally, we are also very grateful to Lilly Oncology for their financial, administrial and logistical support in the realisation of this complex yet rewarding activity. Yours sincerely, Jean Yves-Blay WSN Chairman of the Board
