European Network for the Study of Adrenal Tumours - Structuring clinical research on adrenal cancers in adults (ENS@T-CANCER)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

Among patients with adrenal masses Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) and malignant pheochromocytomas (MPH) are found with a low incidence but very unfavorable prognosis. Due to this poor clinical outcome, concomitant hormone dysregulation and limited treatment options the two cancer entities severely impact on affected patients. However, the rarity of the tumors also impedes clinical studies which ar ...

The European Network for Translational Research in Atrial Fibrillation (EUTRAF)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

"The initiation and perpetuation of atrial fibrillation (AF) can be regarded as a complication of a progressive transformation of the structure and functional properties of the atria. This transformation is the result of complex and multiple changes at the molecular, cellular and organ levels which interact to form the basis for proarrhythmic mechanisms in AF. Numerous individual and environmental ...

ScalPL : A Scalable Programming Language (ScalPL)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Targeting the tumour microenvironment to improve pancreatic cancer prognosis (EPC-TM-Net)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2014,

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal human cancers with a five-year survival rate of less than 5%. Late presentation and a high level of resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs are among the major reasons for this dismal prognosis. The presence of the highest degree of desmoplasia among all solid tumours and the fact that chronic inflammatory pancreatic disease is associated with an increased ...
