Clinical trial meeting

Pre-BMUC focus group meeting

In Memoriam: Dr François-Xavier Otte

For more than 20 years, Dr. Otte devoted his career to radiation oncology at the Jules Bordet Institute. Over the years, he developed a recognized expertise in the multidisciplinary treatment of prostate cancer and made a major contribution in several practice changing clinical trials.

Dr. Otte was greatly appreciated by his patients for his humanity and dedication, and by his colleagues for his kindness and availability. He was also a valued board member of BMUC for many years.

His passing is a great loss to his colleagues at the Jules Bordet Institute, to the wider Belgian radiation oncology community and BMUC in particular. We will remember him as a dedicated physician, a highly valued colleague, and above all, a compassionate person.

On behalf of BMUC, we extend our sincere condolences to his family, friends, colleagues and all those who had the privilege of knowing and working with him.

FRIDAY 15 March

Like last year, a pre-meeting on clinical trials (focus group meeting) is organised for colleagues interested in developing/collaborating in academic trials. The meeting will take place from 14:00 till 14:55.

Don’t miss the opportunity to present and discuss your clinical trial/study or idea (investigator initiated – this can be prospective, retrospective or translational) ) or to hear which current/future trials are open for collaboration during this meeting.

Location: Holiday Inn Hotel Brussels Airport
