The second Study Group Meeting on basic and clinical cancer research was organized to consider the origin and the regulation of genomic changes in neoplasia. At a previous UICC Workshop in 1979, the evidence presented of non-random chromosome aberrations in neoplastic cells was both impressive and relatively novel. Now, 5 years later, the barrage of evidence of translocations, deletions, duplications, amplifications, aneuploidy,

Cancer-suppressing systems have been considered by pathologists and oncologists alike over the last 3 decades, and for several years immune surveillance was in the lime-light. Cancer-suppressing genes, however, have only recently been pinpointed in the aftermath of the bustle of activity set off by
It is the purpose of these Study Group Meetings, which are organized by the UICC Tumor Biology Program, to establish a basis for possible clinical applications founded on molecular concepts. For this purpose a few clinicians, pathologists and epidemiologists are regularly invited to the meetings, wh
