Long-term, prospective study evaluating clinical and molecular biomarkers of epileptogenesis in a genetic model of epilepsy – tuberous sclerosis complex (EPISTOP)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2018,

Despite a great progress in the management of epilepsy, still one third of patients is refractory to available medications.

European Training and Research in Peritoneal Dialysis (EUTRIPD)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) and haemodialysis (HD) are life-saving renal replacement therapies for more than 200,000 patients with chronic kidney disease in Europe, and this number increases annually. Although PD and HD have similar mortality rates, PD offers major advantages in terms of quality of life, costs, home-based treatment opportunities and early patient survival. Moreover, PD, rather than H ...

HIGH THROUGHPUT DRUG DISCOVERY STUDIES FOR MENINGIOMA THERAPEUTICS (HTDDSFMT)

Start date: Aug 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2015,

Meningiomas arise from arachnoid cells and account for approximately 30% of all primary intracranial tumors. Most meningiomas (80-90%) are categorized as benign tumors (WHO grade I), with the remaining 10-20% being atypical (WHO grade II) or malignant (WHO grade III). Gross total resection offers the best chance of cure. Unfortunately, for meningiomas that are difficult to access, complete resect ...
