Renal Cell Carcinoma: From Pathophysiology to Novel Therapeutic Approaches
Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the upcoming webinar “Renal Cell Carcinoma: From Pathophysiology to Novel Therapeutic Approaches”, which will be held on Tuesday, February 7, 2023, at 2:00-3:15 pm CET.
Renal cell carcinoma is a complex disease comprised of a variety of histological subtypes. This webinar focuses on recent advances on clinicopathological, physiological, and molecular approaches to the diagnosis, classification, and novel multidisciplinary treatment of renal cell carcinoma.
The recently published fifth edition of the WHO classification for renal cell carcinoma contains significant revisions. In this webinar, two pathologists will present overviews of the latest advances in the pathology of renal cell carcinomas with papillary features and oncocytic and chromophobe renal tumors, including emerging/provisional entities and those relevant molecular aspects. A Urologist will present recent medical therapy for advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The speakers will each speak for approximately 15 minutes, and then we will open it up to questions from the audience and discussion. Please join us live for this webinar and contribute to the discussion.

João Lobo, MD, PhD, is a Pathology Resident at the Portuguese Oncology Institute of Porto (IPO Porto). He received his MD (2013) and doctorate degree (with European PhD Title, 2021) from the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences of University of Porto (ICBAS-UP), where he is also a Lecturer in Pathology. He is a Junior Researcher at the Cancer Biology and Epigenetics Group of IPO Porto. João has co-authored 93 original articles in peer reviewed journals (h-index=20). In 2021, João completed a fellowship in Uropathology dedicated to kidney tumors at the University Hospital Zurich (Switzerland), and co-authored several publications on papillary renal cell carcinoma. His research interests include biomarkers (in tissue and liquid biopsies) for patients with urological malignancies.
Dr. Koji Iinuma is the lecturer at the Department of Urology, Gifu University, Gifu, Japan. He became the urologist in 2011 and received his M.D. degree from Gifu University in 2022. He has published various papers on urologic oncology and has recently published several papers on ICI-based combination therapies for advanced and metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). His research interests include multi-modality therapies for mRCC, including pharmacological and surgical treatments, and the investigation of biomarkers that may predict prognosis and response to the combination therapies.
