In both cases, Proteomedix will be present, bringing its flagship product, Proclarix, to the attention of the urologist community. A lecture on the updates of the diagnostic-prognostic path of patients with prostate cancer is included in the official scientific program of the URoP Congress, speaker Dr. Matteo Ferro from the European Institute of Oncology in Milan.
