Novel targeted PEG nanoparticles for cancer treatment and monitoring [ 2016 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Karen Alt (Principal investigator) ,  Dr Brett Paterson

Brief description We will develop novel targeted cancer therapies based on next generation nanoparticles. These particles will deliver highly potent drugs to tumours with less adverse effects to healthy organs. The ability to image the therapeutic can be used to detect diseases at early, potentially curable stages, identify patients likely to respond to certain treatments, and predict response to therapy. Our project has the potential to increase the survival of patients suffering from the most deadly cancer.
