Cancer targeted therapies
The molecular mechanisms of cancer development and progression are at the base of targeted therapies. With approaches that include functional genomics, cellular biology and drug development we are prioritizing key target proteins. In collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (Prof. Vincenzo Canzonieri), we are focusing on the functional characterization of novel therapeutic opportunity for ovarian and colon cancer patients. Through the use of cancer organoids derived from the patients, microfluidic technology for ex vivo body-on-chip technology and animal models, the group aims to define novel and repurposed drugs for a patient-tailored therapeutic approach.
Active ProjectsPIN1 targeted therapy in high grade serous ovarian cancer patients
The research project aims to identify new treatments for high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients. This is the most frequent type of ovarian cancer, which, although patients initially respond to therapy, in about 70 percent of cases it relapses within 3 years. In the last five years, we demonstrated that the peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) NIMA-interacting 1 (PIN1) is a new potential target in HGSOC therapy. Chemical and genetic inhibition of PIN1 reduce the tumor burden of human and mouse models of ovarian cancer.
Novel Therapeutics Targets in colon cancer
Through the analysis of data published by international consortia dedicated to the molecular definition of tumors (e.g. TCGA), putative oncogenes in colorectal cancer were selected. Using a biomolecular approach, three-dimensional cultures of organoids derived directly from patients and in vivo in murine animal models, we aim to find new drugs for the treatment of cancer patients at an advanced stage.
Bionanomaterials for cancer therapies
Many preclinical or clinical grade drugs have problems of solubility and toxicity. Nanotechnologies can be used to improve the characteristics of the drug. Through the use of biocompatible materials (eg liposomes, albumin), we are developing new nanopharmaceutical materials to use in a personalized approach for cancer patients.We are looking to define novel BNM for direct therapy or as carrier of drug. Inorganic and organic nanoparticles are deeply studied to define the cross-border interaction with living systems up to biomolecular level. The ultimate goal is to kill specifically cancer cells reducing body toxicity.
Self-therapeutic nanomaterials
We are developing state-of-the-art smart nanomaterials having their self-therapeutic properties. We believe that, as nanotechnology revolutionized the computer and electronics field in the past, it can change the nanomedicine field likewise. We are developing several inorganic and organic materials and characterizing them with different tools before using as medicine. A part of the project is also designed to synthesized patient-specific nanomaterials and developing electrochemical, microfluidics, and optical-based transduction methods as wearable sensing devices for personalized therapy.
Drug delivery
The research group is producing drug delivery systems (e.g. liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, nanocrystals) to deliver both new and clinically used drugs for cancer therapy. Innovative techniques such as microfluidics and supercritical CO2 process are utilized.
