Improving The Use Of Chemotherapy By Targeting The Inflammatory Response

Summary
Patient differences in clearance of anti-cancer drugs have a major impact on the success of chemotherapy. Benefit is lost if the drug is cleared too rapidly, while slow elimination causes toxicity. We will use well characterised mouse models that mirror the human situation to study the causes and effects of reduced drug metabolism in cancer. The data will guide future human studies that will result in improved diagnostic and therapeutic interventions to improve the tolerance of chemotherapy.
