Disseminating tumor cells as novel biomarkers: Dissecting the metastatic cascade in cancer patients (DISSECT)
Start date: Aug 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2016,
"Breast, prostate, lung and colorectal cancer as solid tumours derived from epithelial tissues are responsible for 90% of all new cancers in Europe. Present tumour staging is mainly based on local tumour extension, metastatic lymph node involvement and evidence of overt distant metastasis obtained by imaging technologies. However, these staging procedures are not sensitive enough to detect early t ...

Genomic instability and genomic alterations in pre-cancerous lesions and/or cancer (GENINCA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,
"GENINCA will address two tumor entities, for which we have good access to pre-malignant lesions and in which genomic instability is a common feature: colorectal and liver cancer. Colorectal cancer amounts to 13.2% of all incident cases of cancer, the second most common form of cancer, surpassed only by lung cancer (13.3%). Liver cancer accounts for about 2% of total cancers, however, the most com ...
