The Liquid Biopsy Movement: From Access to Action

October 22, 2026 | Novotel Madrid Campo de las Naciones, Madrid, Spain
Building on the conversation we brought to you earlier this year at ASCO, our Global Precision Medicine Forum ESMO edition will move the discussion beyond expanding access to liquid biopsy and focus on translating that access into action.

Join the pioneers driving this transformation as they share real-world insights from routine practice, demonstrate how decentralized testing is shaping patient care, and reveal how the same model is enabling the next generation of precision oncology biomarkers.

WHY ATTEND

Why attend?

Through three distinct chapters, we will provide you with an insider’s view on:
The Proof
MSK-ACCESS® powered with SOPHiA DDM™ in routine practice at scale: a look at how, through the eyes of adopting sites, decentralization of liquid biopsy is transforming routine care.
The Blueprint Extended
Decentralizing the next generation of hard-to-test biomarkers: a look at applying the same model to build and validate assays for emerging, complex biomarkers.
The Ecosystem
Partnerships that turn validation into access: a look at the scientific and technological investment the precision medicine ecosystem needs to bring new validated assays to the hands of patients.
This event will bring together:

• Pharma and Biotech industry leaders
• Oncology KOLs from leading cancer institutions
• Diagnostic partners

We will end the event with a dedicated networking reception, where you will get the opportunity to exchange perspectives and build relationships with the people propelling precision medicine forward.
