EFPIA, EUREGHA & Cancer Patients Europe are organising an event that will focus on developing a roadmap at country level to address the growing burder of cancer in Europe.
The event aims to bring together various stakeholders such as policymakers, regional health authorities, patient advocates, and healthcare providers. Through an exchange on the opportunities for health systems and the tangible benefits for patients, as well as an exploration of the challenges in translating research into practical solutions, the event will spotlight successful EU initiatives and regional approaches to uptake precision oncology.

The METHYLOMIC project, ‘targeting hope for personalised medicine in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project aims to personalise treatment allocation and enhance the effectiveness of medications for chronic immune-mediated diseases such as Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis. BIRD, the Belgian inflammatory bowel disease research and development group, is a partner in the project and is involved in the OmiCrohn trial, a prospective randomised clinical trial for individualised therapy in Crohn’s disease patients. With BIRD’s active role in this trial, the project is set to deliver predictive, biomarker-based therapies that bring renewed hope for Crohn’s disease patients across Europe.
