Funded Activity Summary

A current shortfall in clinical medicine is tests which discriminate different forms and severity of cancers. The project will aim to identify useful strategies based on blood factors of angiogenesis, a fundamental process in tumour growth and dissemination. Development of such tests may permit better delineation of prognosis, act as a surrogate marker of treatment efficacy and aid in developing and optimizing new treatments, key areas of need in prostate cancer.
