23-24 February 2027 | International Convention Centre (ICC), Sydney

Next February, leading clinical trialists, researchers, healthcare professionals, and consumers will gather in Sydney for the PaCCSC & CST Research Forum 2027. In 2027, the Forum theme explores the scientific foundations that enhance the quality of care of people with cancer and other life-limiting illnesses.

Clinical trials are critical for evaluating the efficacy and safety of the therapies we use in cancer symptom management and in palliative care. It is also essential that we evaluate how we work as multi-disciplinary teams, and how we communicate with patients and families.

Interpreting the evidence and incorporating the science into the treatment of patients can be complex and challenging. The forum will explore how we can design and deliver the right trials for the right people at the right time, with a focus on equity, inclusion of underserved populations, and emerging opportunities in genomics, precision medicine, and symptom-focused supportive care.

The PaCCSC & CST Research Forum 2027 has been given ‘Consumers Included’ status by Cancer Voices, ensuring that the perspectives of patients, survivors, carers, and other members of the public affected by cancer are part of the planning and program of the forum.
