Description

Due to the current situation with COVID-19 we have decided that the event will be held online.
Please, find out the latest information about this online course on www.e-ESO.net.

The “ESO-ESMO-RCE Clinical Update on Rare Adult Solid Cancers” is an educational effort held on an annual basis and conceived to strengthen the education of medical professionals willing to devote their career to rare cancers.
Despite being rare as single entities, rare adult solid cancers account for as many as 15% of all new cancer cases, thus being the main group within rare cancers in general. The definition of rare cancers by the RARECARE project and the list of the 10 “families” of rare adult solid cancers gave rise to shape the sessions of this course:

• Head & neck cancers
• Sarcomas
• Rare thoracic tumors
• Neuroendocrine tumors
• Central nervous system neoplasms
• Rare female genital cancers
• Endocrine gland tumors
• Digestive rare cancers
• Rare urological and male genital tumors
• Rare skin cancers & non-cutaneous melanoma

Since ‘networking’ and ‘multidisciplinarity’ are the two main keywords to improve the quality of care of rare cancers, ESO has decided to develop the programme of this course in collaboration with other the European initiatives in this field and to give its contribution to tackle the rare cancer issue. The 5th ESO-ESMO-RCE Clinical Update on Rare Adult Solid Cancers is conceived in the context of, and supported by, EURACAN, the European Reference Network on rare adult solid cancers. The Faculty has been largely selected from EURACAN, also with the aim of letting this educational effort closely interact with its networking activities.

Optimal management of rare adult solid cancers poses specific diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The sessions of the course have been designed to address the needs of clinical oncologists wanting an update on recent advancements on these tumours.

The global health crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic has forced us to turn the in-person course into a virtual event. It will be a good opportunity to receive updates on the available evidence in this field and promote future networking and collaborations.

We have done our best to design an online course enabling participants to attend according to their own schedule. There will be a mixture of pre-recorded sessions and live sessions for Q & A and clinical case discussions with faculty members and moderators.

On behalf of the co-Chairs

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Provide an update on the latest developments in the area of rare adult solid rare cancers, with a background perspective on state-of-the-art and evidence based practice.

INFORMATION
The course will be carried out in two different steps:

Step 1

Pre-recorded sessions will be made available from 1st December 2020 and will remain on the e-eso website. You will be able to see all the sessions in your own time, and send questions that will be selected for discussion during Step 2 of the course;

Step 2
Live sessions with an introductory round table on rare cancers in general, clinical case presentations and Q&A discussions with moderators and speakers will be held on 16 and 17 January 2021.
During the Q&A sessions, speakers will answer and discuss a number of selected questions received in advance via email (see below for instructions) and/or during the live streaming via chat.

Q&A SESSIONS
Participants are encouraged to send questions in advance, as long as they listen to the recorded sessions. The moderators will select questions to be answered during the live streaming. Questions should be sent to raretumours@eso.net, no later than 4 January 2021. Please indicate the session title and speaker your question refers to.

All the contents will be recorded and accessible via the e-ESO website after the event (registration to access the contents will remain open).
