NANOTECHNOLOGICAL TOOLKITS FOR MULTI-MODAL DISEASE DIAGNOSTICS AND TREATMENT MONITORING (NAMDIATREAM)
Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
NAMDIATREAM will develop a cutting edge nanotechnology-based toolkit for multi-modal detection of biomarkers of most common cancer types and cancer metastases, permitting identification of cells indicative of early disease onset in a high-specificity and throughput format in clinical, laboratory and point-of-care devices. The project is built on the innovative concepts of super-sensitive and highl ...

The Synthesis and Evaluation of Organometallic Dinuclear Ruthenium Complexes as Anti-Cancer Drugs (DINURU)
Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
"Current platinum-based anti-cancer drugs, such as cisplatin, are well established in the successful treatment of various forms of cancer, however, the use of these drugs is significantly limited by associated side effects and drug resistance. Ruthenium-based alternatives, some of which are in clinical testing, have shown considerable promise, exhibiting low general toxicity alongside selectivity ...

Sugar-linked Ruthenium-anticancer Complexes (SuRuCo)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2010,
Cancer is a major cause of death in Europe, being second to heart disease and responsible more than 1.7 million (6.7 worldwide) lives every year. It is expected that these numbers will rise dramatically such that by 2020 more than 16 million new cases will be registered, with the number of deaths more than 10.3 million people per year worldwide (in Europe the number of deaths is estimated to rise ...
