Late-breaking abstracts

Late-breaking abstract submission is closed.

A late-breaking abstract is an abstract that contains new information that is not yet known or fully available by the original annual abstract submission deadline, 1 November, 08:30 CET. The research must be novel, innovative, contemporary, and of high scientific significance. Abstracts should describe either large clinical investigations or high-impact translational research.

Like other abstracts, the information and data must not be published elsewhere prior to the meeting.

Note, that the late-breaking abstract deadline is not an extension of the submission deadline.

Additional implications (on top of/overruling the standard submission rules and regulations):

  • You can only submit the abstract once to the EAU24 submission – double-submitted abstracts will not be reviewed
  • Very limited places are available for late-breaking abstracts in the programme, therefore the selection will be done very critically
  • Late-breaking abstracts will be reviewed anonymously by a selection of members of the Scientific Congress Committee (SCC)

Selected late-breaking abstracts might be considered for publication in European Urology.
