Long-term effects of early nutrition on later health (EARLYNUTRITION)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Nutrition during early development has an important impact on later health, particularly through greater obesity risk, as demonstrated by FP6 EARNEST. EarlyNutrition explores the current key hypotheses on likely causes and pathways to prevention of early life origins of obesity (specifically adiposity) and associated disorders. We bring extraordinary expertise and study populations of 470,000 indi ...

Development of very promising humanized therapeutic mAbs efficiently neutralizing a novel immunosuppressive pathway involved in a wide range of cancers (TumAdoR)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Studies have demonstrated the importance of CD73 in the spread of cancer. Overexpressed in numerous cancer types, this enzyme leads to the production of high amounts of extracellular Adenosine, creating an immunosuppressive microenvironment, and contributing to tumor proliferation and dissemination. Neutralizing its activity represents a highly potent and innovative therapy.Following on the recent ...

Impact of Prenatal Stress on BRAIN AGEing (BRAINAGE)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

Healthy brain ageing is a major determinant of quality life-long health, allowing integration into society at all ages. Human epidemiological and animal studies indicate that in addition to life style and genetic factors, environmental influences in prenatal life have a major impact on brain ageing and age-associated brain disorders. We hypothesize that: (1) prenatal stress programs early brain ag ...

WINTHERapeutics: development of a systems biology method to predict efficacy of cancer drugs to optimize individualized therapeutic decision and improve clinical outcome for cancer patients (WINTHER)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Relevance: WINTHER project focuses on the development and validation, in 24 months, of industry supported new tools and computational methods, to predict efficacy of drugs in cancer patientsCurrent medical needs: Selection of cancer targeted therapies based on molecular abnormalities (mutations /amplifications/ translocations) benefit today only to 10-40% of patients. For the remaining majority, ...

CO2 Site Closure Assessment Research (CO2CARE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

CO2CARE aims to support the large scale demonstration of CCS technology by addressing the research requirements of CO2 storage site abandonment. It will deliver technologies and procedures for abandonment and post-closure safety, satisfying the regulatory requirements for transfer of responsibility. The project will focus on three key areas: well abandonment and long-term integrity; reservoir mana ...
