  1. 11. Precision medicine and targeted therapy : Turning the tables on cancer

    Författare :Anja Mortensen; Marika Nestor; Gregory Adams; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :p53 cancers; PM2; radiosensitization; radio-immunotherapy; MDM2 X inhibition; combination therapy; targeted radionuclide therapy; CD44v6; Biomedical Radiation Science; Biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : An extended understanding of the molecular characteristics of cancer has led to a revolution within the field of precision medicine. This thesis explores the utilization of two targets for precision medicine, namely, CD44v6 and murine double-minute 2 and X (MDM2/X). LÄS MER

  3. 12. Radioimmunodiagnosis of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinomas : Preclinical Studies

    Författare :Karl Sandström; Matti Anniko; Marika Nestor; Hans Lundqvist; Göran Laurell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Head and neck squamos cell carcinoma; radioimmunotargeting; radioimmunodiagnosis; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Despite improvements in treatment, the prognosis for patients with advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) has only improved to a minor degree. To raise the success rate and minimize morbidity further developments in diagnostics are highly desired. Radioimmunodiagnosis could offer a more specific and sensitive diagnostic method. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Towards Personalized Cancer Therapy : New Diagnostic Biomarkers and Radiosensitization Strategies

    Författare :Diana Spiegelberg; Marika Nestor; Bo Stenerlöw; Johan Lennartson; Theodosia Maina-Nock; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tumor targeting; radionuclide targeting; HSP90 inhibition; AT13387; radiosensitization; molecular imaging; combination treatment; EGFR; CD44v6; Biomedical Radiation Science; Biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the evaluation of biomarkers for radio-immunodiagnostics and radio-immunotherapy and on radiosensitization strategies after HSP90 inhibition, as a step towards more personalized cancer medicine. There is a need to develop new tracers that target cancer-specific biomarkers to improve diagnostic imaging, as well as to combine treatment strategies to potentiate synergistic effects. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Targeting Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors with Drug Conjugates Based on Affibody Molecules

    Författare :Jie Zhang; Torbjörn Gräslund; Per-Åke Nygren; Marika Nestor; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Affibody molecule; HER2; HER3; affibody-drug conjugate; half-life; payload; Affibody-molekyl; HER2; HER3; affibody-läkemedelskonjugat; halveringstid; nyttolast; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a major public health challenge and the second leading cause of death in the world, with millions of new cases being diagnosed each year. Traditional cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy are many times effective, but may also cause damage to healthy cells, leading to side effects. LÄS MER
