 TERMINÉ 
Ewing Sarcomas (ES) are fatal, rare bone cancers particularly affecting young people. About 60% of patients achieve long term survival with current treatment but there has been no improvement in this proportion for 25 years. Treatment is unsuccessful because chemotherapy fails to prevent the development of, or to effectively treat established, metastases. In addition, of the 600 new cases of ES o ...

Sarcomas are rare malignant tumors, with an overall incidence of 6/105/year. Bone and soft tissue connective tissue tumours encompass more than 50 different rare histotypes and more than 150 different molecular subtypes. The incidence of individual rare sarcomas subtypes is often less than 0.5/105/year. Given sarcoma rarity as a group, but even more as individual entities, few prospective clinical ...

Cloud based Simulation platform for Manufacturing and Engineering (CloudSME)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,

Simulation can significantly improve the competitive position of manufacturing and engineering companies by reducing their costs and resulting in more efficient development, production, procurement, logistics or financial processes. However, the take-up of simulation software by SMEs has until now been low due to high barriers of entry that include hardware prices, licensing costs and technical ex ...

Regenerating Bone defects using New biomedical Engineering approaches (REBORNE)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2015,

Bone is among the most frequently transplanted tissue with about 1 million procedures annually in Europe. The worldwide market of bone replacement materials is currently estimated at 5 billion € with a 10% annual growth. Despite their considerable disadvantages, including the risk of disease transfer and immunologic rejection, limited supply of bone, costs and complications, allografts and autogra ...

ADIPOSE DERIVED STROMAL CELLS FOR OSTEOARTHRITIS (ADIPOA)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease for which no efficient therapy is available. The ADIPOA consortium has previously shown that intraarticular injections of stromal cells prevents OA in two different models, but the mechanisms of this chondroprotective effect remains unknown, and the activation of cartilage derived endogenous stem cells is suspected. The participants have experien ...

Bone motion Capture from video sequences (BOCAP)

Date du début: 31 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 janv. 2014,

The analysis of human movements, gathering quantitative information about the musculoskeletal system during the execution of a motor task, plays a fundamental role for the understanding of the system physiopathology. Current methods for capturing accurate 3D human motion require the attachment of devices like markers, fixtures or sensors, that may influence the execution of natural movements, requ ...

The musculoskeletal apparatus is probably the organ system where the need for the integrative approach advocated by the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) initiative is most pronounced. The neuromotor control involves the entire body, whereas the processes involved in muscle twitching, bones and muscle adaptation, musculoskeletal aging, and in most musculoskeletal diseases take place at the molecul ...

Osteorthritis (OA) is a disabling disease, affecting the joints of 40% or more of the population over 60, resulting in a socioeconomic burden of €7b. per year in Germany alone. Joint surgery attempts to address the various disease stages, to either minimize the risk of early degeneration of the native joint, or to replace a fully degenerated joint, with well over 1,000,000 surgeries performed annu ...

Osteoporotic Virtual Physiological Human (VPHOP)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2012,

Nearly four million osteoporotic bone fractures cost the European health system more than 30 billion Euro per year. This figure could double by 2050. After the first fracture, the chances of having another one increase by 86%. We need to prevent osteoporotic fractures. The first step is an accurate prediction of the patient-specific risk of fracture that considers not only the skeletal determin ...
