Identification of DNA methylation profiles for targeted therapy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia and other cancers
TS-075244 — Problem
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the most common acute leukemia in adults, is a clinically and molecularly heterogeneous disease. Sequencing of large patient cohorts has uncovered a complex mutational landscape in AML but still fails to completely explain the biological and clinical heterogene…

Mps1/TTK Inhibitors for Cancer Therapy
TS-075231 — Problem
Despite recent progress in cancer therapy, acquired resistance to existing cancer drugs reduces therapeutic efficacy. There is a strong need for a therapy with a novel mode of action to overcome drug resistance, and to improve therapeutic efficacy whether used alone or in combination therap…

Lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR)-targeted mAb and ADC for LSR+ tumors treatment
TS-075185 — Problem
The lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) is a promising target for cancer therapy. LSR is overexpressed in many tumor tissues with metastatic signatures such as breast, gastric, and endometrial cancer. LSR expression levels may serve as prognostic indicators and help stratify pat…

Single extracellular vesicular RNA signature as biomarkers for glioblastoma detection
TS-075177 — Problem
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant form of gliomas and the most lethal primary brain tumors in adults. Current biomarkers or clinical features from tissue biopsy samples cannot distinguish glioma true progression from pseudoprogression and might not be suited to monitoring …

Humanized somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) mAb and ADCs to target SSTR2+ tumors
TS-075165 — Problem
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are often metastatic at diagnosis, thus limiting surgical options. Chemotherapies offer limited efficacy and high toxicity. Meningiomas, though usually benign, are the most common intracranial tumors. Both NETs and meningiomas overexpress SSTR2, making it a prom…

A novel mouse model of spontaneous chronic lymphocytic leukemia
TS-055268 — The laboratory of Dr. Rosa Lapalombella in collaboration with Dr. James Blachly at The Ohio State University has developed a mouse model of spontaneous Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.
The Need
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) accounts for one quarter of new cases of leukemia. CLL is the most prevalent adult leukemia in Western countries and is characterized by a mature B-cell phenotype. Given the burden of this disease, a large pipeline of drugs for treatment are in progress…

Six Degrees-of-Freedom Quality Assurance Phantom for Radiation Therapy Linear Accelerators
TS-037968 — The medical physics group in the Department of Radiation Oncology has devised a 6DoF phantom that is the first of its kind to fully integrate multiple routine QA tests specifically for a six degrees-of-freedom linac table.
6DoF treatment tables allow for 2 additional degrees (pitch and roll) compared to traditional 4DoF (vertical, lateral, longitudinal, and yaw) when correcting for patient setup during image-guidance prior to treatment delivery. These tables allow for more accurate patient treatments and could poten…
