Grant Activity:
Nanomedicine strategies for early detection and treatment of brain metastases
Purpose:
Most brain tumours arise by spreading from cancer elsewhere in the body. This lethal complication has a devastating impact and new treatments are urgently needed. We will develop multifunctional nanomedicines that home to cancer deposits after injection, creating local reservoirs of high-dose chemo- and radiation therapy. They incorporate a tracer, so that deposits can be visualised with a PET scan before treatment, and only patients whose disease is likely to respond will be prescribed therapy.
