The grant supports the development of an encapsulated cell-based oncolytic virus therapy for the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), the most lethal primary brain tumor. The research aims to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of engineered...
- This Project Grant award of $687,279 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research to uncover the effects of standard-of-care therapy on immune and neoplastic cell population dynamics in pre-clinical mouse models of glioblastoma (GBM) and analysis of human GBM samples. The goal is to identify tumor microenvironment areas of therapeutic...
- This federal Project Grant award, valued at $641,936 and funded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research), aims to develop novel strategies to program tumor-associated neutrophils as antitumor effector cells for the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), the most aggressive type of brain cancer. The project will leverage synthetic biology, machine learning, and next-generation sequencing to interrogate tumor-associated neutrophils and develop methods to reprogram...
- This federal Project Grant award of $131,360 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, is funding research at the University of New Haven to characterize the long non-coding RNA GIHCG and assess its potential as a therapeutic target for glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. The 4-year project aims to use CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to...
- This Project Grant award, titled "Unlocking the Immunobiology of Conventional Dendritic Cells to Augment T Cell Activation in Glioblastoma", is funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The award provides $628,373 to The General Hospital Corporation, doing business as Massachusetts General Hospital, to conduct research focused on...
- This Project Grant award of $652,751 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research to engineer antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) designed to enhance the therapeutic window for treating glioblastoma (GBM) and other central nervous system cancers. The research, conducted by the Mayo Clinic, aims to leverage key findings from prior preclinical studies...
- This federal Project Grant award of $429,000 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, aims to explore the mechanism of Notch inhibition resistance in glioblastoma (GBM) cancer stem-like cells. The goal is to develop novel therapies for this deadly brain cancer. The research project, led by the Regents of the University of Michigan, will identify GBM...
- The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $305,031 Project Grant to Round Table Research, Inc. under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) to advance extracellular vesicle (EV) therapy for the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive form of brain cancer. The funded project, conducted in collaboration with researchers at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, seeks to develop engineered tumoricidal EVs derived from induced neural stem cells (iNSCs) as a promising...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) grant program, will fund research to target cell-scaffolding proteins that contribute to radioresistance in glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. The $448,250 award to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, operating as Upstate Medical Center, will support a 2-year...
- This $399,669 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) aims to establish the feasibility of commercializing a personalized and multi-targeted adoptive T cell therapy (ATCT) for glioblastoma (GBM), the most common and deadly primary brain tumor. The key products or services to be delivered under this grant include: Evaluating the ability of the applicant's Prussian blue nanoparticle-based photothermal therapy (PBNP-PTT) platform to...
This $138,189 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, supports research to develop a glioblastoma stem cell (GSC) vaccine for the prevention and control of the aggressive and incurable brain cancer glioblastoma (GBM). The research, conducted by North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, aims to assess the vaccine's ability to induce immunogenic cell death, provide homologous and heterologous protection against GBM, and evaluate its therapeutic efficacy against established GBM tumors. This innovative approach represents the first attempt to use live-irradiated GSCs as a vaccine for GBM, with the potential to address the urgent need for effective GBM treatments.
