Autologous Stem Cell Seeded Tissue Engineered Trachea (TETRA)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
CLINICAL PROBLEM AND UNMET NEEDThere are 11,827 patients with severe structural airway disease in Europe. Even with the current standard of care, when hospitalised this group of patients has a 22% risk of dying. Patients are currently subjected to repeated surgical interventions (stent insertion) which have a high failure rate. Other therapeutic strategies under development include synthetic trac ...

Airway Disease PRedicting Outcomes through Patient Specific Computational Modelling (AirPROM)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,
The airways diseases asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease affect over 400 million people world-wide and cause considerable morbidity and mortality. Airways disease costs the European Union in excess of €56 billion per annum. Current therapies are inadequate and we do not have sufficient tools to predict disease progression or response to current or future therapies. Our consortium, Air ...

Markers for emphysema versus airway disease in COPD (EvA)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,
COPD is characterized by emphysema (destruction of the lung alveoli) and airway disease (inflammation and thickening of the bronchial wall) both of which lead to airway obstruction. These two features co-exist in most patients but some patients present with only emphysema (E) or only airway disease (A). The aim of the project is to identify markers specific to E and A of COPD. Our hypothesis is th ...
