Friday 17 October marks the beginning of the ESMO Congress 2025. Researchers from the MRC Clinical Trials Unit at UCL and our partners will showcase the latest work from our prostate cancer clinical trials.

The ESMO Congress brings together oncologists, researchers, clinicians, and professionals from around the world to discuss the latest advancements in cancer research and treatment. This year’s event will take place from Friday 17 – Tuesday 21 October in Berlin, Germany, and virtually. 

Details of the presentations and posters featuring the STAMPEDE, RAMPART, and ICON8B trials and the STOPCAP meta-analysis are summarised in the tables below. All times are local to Berlin.
