The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $2,190,123 Project Grant under the Cancer Centers Support Grants (CFDA 93.397) program to The Johns Hopkins University to support a Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) in Prostate Cancer. The grant aims to translate new insights about the role of adaptive changes in the hormonal axis, DNA-repair, and the immune system in prostate cancer into new hypotheses tested in clinical trials, with the overall objective of reducing prostate cancer mortality through focused translational research. The Johns Hopkins University will serve as the lead institution on this 5-year grant, with the University of Maryland, Baltimore receiving a $668,513 sub-award to contribute specialized expertise and capabilities. The research will leverage the extensive scientific and clinical resources of these academic medical centers to advance understanding of prostate cancer biology and develop more effective treatment strategies. By combining innovative basic science, translational research, and clinical trials, this SPORE program aims to make significant advancements in the fight against prostate cancer.
