European Prevention of Alzheimer’s Dementia Consortium (EPAD)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,

Background:The secondary prevention of Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) is achievable if we can identify individuals at risk of disease progression defined by biomarker evidence of AD pathology and no or only minimal clinical symptoms and engage them in a standing adaptive clinical trial, of the highest quality, testing multiple interventions. To achieve this, EPAD will also provide the analytical infras ...

Glioblastoma Inhibition: Targeting Tumour-derived Extracellular-Vesicle Driven Cell-Recruitment (GLITTER)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2019,

"Glioblastomas (GBMs) are malignant brain tumours and among the most aggressive human cancers. GBMs patients have an extremely poor survival rate due to a complete absence of adequate therapies capable of efficiently targeting GBM cells inside the brain. Recently, we demonstrated that GBM cells release pro-tumoural extracellular vesicles (EVs) into the bloodstream, which emerged as important inter ...

Combining epidemiology and radiobiology to assess cancer risks in the breast, lung, thyroid and digestive tract after exposures to ionizing radiation with total doses in the order of 100 mSv or below (EpiRadBio)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,

Recent epidemiological studies suggest that cancer risk after exposures with doses comparable to the dose limits for occupationally exposed workers may be larger than assumed by ICRP in the derivation of these limits. The value of cancer risk from such exposures and its dependence on tissue, radiation type and individual factors is largely unknown. The innovative approach proposed here combines ep ...
