- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) will support the development of a "Spatial Profiling-Based Immune Hub Perturbation Platform" to improve immunotherapy for colorectal cancer. The $710,361 award to J. David Gladstone Institutes will fund research to create a novel experimental framework to systematically test and prioritize candidate genes and therapies based on their ability to induce effective anti-tumor immune hubs -...
- The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $170,641 Project Grant under the Cancer Research Manpower (CFDA 93.398) program to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Inc. (DFCI) in Boston, Massachusetts. The purpose of this 2-year award, which runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027, is to advance the understanding of tumor-immune spatial interactions in mismatch-repair stratified colorectal cancers. The research aims to identify immunologically distinct subsets of mismatch-repair proficient...
- This $640,583 federal Project Grant was awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory to conduct research aimed at enhancing the efficacy of immunotherapy against metastatic colorectal cancer. The primary goal is to activate the PPARD-CPT1A axis in CD8+ T cells to boost their anti-tumor immunity and improve treatment outcomes for patients with microsatellite stable metastatic colorectal cancer, who typically respond poorly...
- This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower program) provides $154,642 to the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research in New York to conduct research on identifying conserved cancer-specific immunopeptide targets in metastatic colorectal cancer. The project aims to systematically elucidate the evolving immunopeptidome (peptides presented by HLA class I molecules) from patient-derived colorectal cancer organoids to reveal targetable...
- This federal Project Grant award of $205,700 from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) supports research at the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research in New York aimed at understanding and overcoming rapid resistance to targeted therapies in colorectal cancer. The key objectives are to evaluate how intrinsic tumor features modulate the development of resistance to targeted therapies, and to test a novel combination approach to...
- This Project Grant award of $124,134 from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower) supports research to investigate the mechanisms of pathogenesis and treatment response in immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced colitis. The research aims to define the role of specific T cell subsets recruited from circulation in promoting inflammation and mediating therapeutic response in this condition, which can occur in up to 40% of cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint...
- This $292,028 Project Grant awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower) supports research to investigate the mechanisms by which oncogene amplification leads to genome instability and the development of therapy-resistant cancer clones. The research will be conducted by the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research in New York and is scheduled to run from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2030. Using single-cell genomic sequencing techniques, the project aims...
- This federal Project Grant award of $312,892 was provided by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Research Manpower (CFDA 93.398) program. The grant supports research at Duke University to study the role of type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) in regulating the melanoma tumor microenvironment. The goal is to understand how ILC3s impact the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy for advanced melanoma patients, as the majority do not respond to ICI treatment....
- This $147,486 Project Grant was awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower) to Baylor College of Medicine on December 1, 2025, with a completion date of April 20, 2027. The grant supports a novel immune tolerization strategy called RECON to investigate the trade-offs between oncogene pathogenicity and immunogenicity. The key objective is to uncouple an oncogene's pathogenic potential from its immunogenic properties, enabling the dissection of genetic and...
- This $204,027 federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) is supporting the Weill Medical College of Cornell University in expanding single-cell and spatial technologies to link clonal genotypes with phenotypes during cancer evolution. The grant aims to develop advanced single-cell methods that can capture multiple data modalities, including genotypes, transcriptomes, methylomes, and protein expression, to better understand how somatic...
