Molecularly guided trials with specific treatment strategies in patients with advanced newly molecular defined subtypes of colorectal cancer (MoTriColor) (MoTriColor)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2015, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2019,

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasingly being recognized as a heterogeneous disease with distinct molecular subtypes. These subtypes have different biological processes at the basis of their disease and consequently their prognosis and responses to therapy are also different.We have previously developed molecular diagnostic assays using a single platform on routine FFPE tumour biopsies. These assa ...

Coordinated Development of Inhibitors and Biomarkers for Resistance to Antiangiogenics in Cancer - AngioResist (AngioResist)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,

Many anti-angiogenic drugs are clinically used in several types of cancer to block angiogenesis, impair tumor growth, progression and dissemination. Nevertheless, clinical trials report emergence of resistance to treatment and a failure in long-lasting effects of these therapies. To date, resistant patients do not currently have any established, proven alternative therapeutic possibility and the m ...

Use of adoptive T cell transfer in combination with oncolytic adenoviruses for cancer treatment (Cancer therapies)

Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 31 août 2015,

Metastatic cancer remains an incurable disease in the majority of cases and thus development of novel treatment strategies is required. Adoptive T cell therapy is a promising therapy for patients with a wide range of cancers. This therapy involves ex vivo activation and expansion of T cells followed by infusion into patients. Peripheral blood CD4+ and CD8+ T cells can be redirected against tumor-a ...

Role of human papillomavirus infection and other co-factors in the aetiology of head and neck cancer in India and Europe (HPV-AHEAD)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2011, Date de fin: 31 août 2015,

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is responsible for approximately 25% of head and neck cancer (HNC) worldwide and appears to be associated with a better response to treatment and improved prognosis. Evidence suggests that HPV-induced HNC has steadily increased in the USA and some European countries in the last decades. However, whether this is a worldwide phenomenon and specific risk factors are associa ...
