- ASCO 2026: Circulating biomarkers, biological avatars, innovative imaging, remote monitoring… The Institut Curie at the center of the conference announcements
From May 29 to June 2, 2026 in Chicago (USA), the world cancer community will gather, as it does every year, for the unmissable congress of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). With numerous communications, doctors and researchers from Institut Curie will be present to share promising advances aimed at accelerating cancer research through innovative personalized and adaptive medicine approaches.
The challenge of oncology today is no longer only to customize treatment to the diagnosis, but to continuously adapt the therapeutic strategy to the dynamics and the tumor evolution. This year at the ASCO congress, the teams of Institut Curie demonstrate all the promises of this adaptive medicine which, tomorrow, will considerably improve the care of patients, in all its dimensions. These promising prospects reinforce our commitment and our will to transform clinical research into concrete sources of hope for patients.
