Gianluca Vago, director of the department of Oncology and hemato-oncology of the State University of Milan and president of the Cnao Foundation, talks about “active prevention”, during the national conference promoted by the Lombardy Region at Pirellone on the new frontiers of oncology research. “There are prevention techniques that allow you to monitor the genomic alterations underlying the development of tumors, using a simple blood test,” adds Vago.
