Late-Breaking Abstract Information and Eligibility

Late-breaking abstract submission is solely for abstracts with late-breaking data and not for abstracts submitted “late.” The late-breaking abstract deadline is not intended to be an extension of the general submission deadline. Late-breaking abstracts highlight novel and practice-changing studies, and only apply to data that would have not otherwise have been presented as an abstract at SITC 2020.

Examples of acceptable late-breaking abstracts include the following (in each case, results were not available or significant by the regular abstract submission deadline):

- Results of a practice-changing prospective Phase III clinical trial
- Phase II study showing anti-tumor activity in a novel context
- An early clinical trial with novel proof-of-principle data
- Demonstration of novel cancer biology with therapeutic implications

No big halls crammed with neurosurgeons in a pandemic. Scientific meetings are diminished this year. SITC poster session actually makes sense. If SNO were in person, then the big hall makes a ton of sense. Wont happen this year.

Anyone know if she has a talk? Posters are for PhD students. To me it's comical that people are suggesting they'll use a poster as the reference point for the first discussion of the results of a major phase 3 trial in brain cancer.
