9TH INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL REVIEW ON GASTROINTESTINAL CANCER
Dear Colleagues,
It gives us immense pleasure to welcome you to the 9th International Annual Review on Gastrointestinal Cancer Update, scheduled on 8th & 9th August 2026 in Mumbai. Since its inception in 2019, this annual academic gathering has evolved into a highly anticipated platform for clinicians, surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, gastroenterologists, researchers, and healthcare professionals dedicated to advancing the field of gastrointestinal oncology.
The landscape of GI cancer management continues to change rapidly with the emergence of novel therapies, precision medicine, immunotherapy, and multidisciplinary treatment strategies, leading to significantly improved patient outcomes. In view of these advancements, this meeting is designed to provide a comprehensive review of the most important scientific data, landmark trials, practice-changing updates, and global conference highlights from the past year.
Conducted annually in Mumbai, the conference brings together renowned national and international experts to discuss current standards of care and future directions across various GI malignancies including esophageal, gastric, hepatobiliary, pancreatic, colorectal, and rare gastrointestinal cancers.
Through meaningful scientific exchange and collaborative discussions, this conference aims to enhance clinical practice, encourage evidence-based decision-making, and ultimately improve patient care outcomes across the region and beyond.
