Grant Program:

Grant Activity:
Application of gene-silencing nanodrugs to inhibit medulloblastoma growth
Purpose:

Brain cancer kills mre children in Australia than any other disease. The poor prognosis is due to chemoresistance and relapse. The Investigator expects to use state of the art tumour targeting nanoparticles to deliver gene silencing drugs to selectively inhibit a gene which is unregulated in brain cancer cells and promotes chemoresistance. The aim of the project is to create a new therapeutic strategy with the potential to increase survival and quality of life for children diagnosed with brain cancer.
