The University of California, Davis was awarded a $615,399 Project Grant by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to develop a transformable nanoparticle (TNP) platform capable of transforming into nanofibrillar networks that can effectively deliver immunomodulatory peptides, small molecules, and proteins to the tumor microenvironment. This 5-year research project aims to optimize the TNP/TCTS therapeutic platform for on-demand modulation of the tumor...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $619,294 Project Grant under CFDA 93.394 "Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research" to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to develop slow-release CPMV (Cowpea Mosaic Virus)-polymer blend formulations for intratumoral immunotherapy delivery. The project aims to formulate CPMV-laden slow-release devices, establish and tune the release rates, confirm the structural integrity and biological activity of the released CPMV, and...
The University of Colorado-Denver was awarded a $375,134 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to investigate a novel approach for reducing off-target accumulation of chemotherapeutic nanomedicines. The key objectives are to characterize the innate immune response that can tighten epithelial barriers and limit nanoparticle deposition in healthy tissues, and to leverage this response to enhance delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to tumors...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $222,998 Project Grant under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) for the period of March 10, 2025 to February 28, 2027. The grant supports research to engineer endogenous immune cells, including T cells, NK cells, and macrophages, to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) using a novel virus-like particle (VLP) vector. The goal is to enable these engineered immune cells to mediate...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research program (CFDA 93.394) provides $427,095 to Northeastern University to develop a novel microfluidic droplet-based platform (MDP) technology. The MDP will generate and analyze a 3D biomimetic multicellular immunogenic tumor model to: Establish multiple levels of hypoxia within the same tumor-chip for parallel processing. Investigate spatiotemporal interaction between the...
