Research Unit in Gynecological Cancer, sarcomas and other tumors in women. - GISAM

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2023-582

 
Description of research activity:

Currently, the group's main research activity is focused on the study of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).We essentially focused on the study of the generation of drug resistance through cell models, murine models and patient samples.

Scientific-technical goals:
  • Study of AXL-GAS6 as a mechanism of resistance to PARP inhibitors in COSAG and CMTN through replicative stress and immunomodulation
  • Analysis of the role of the p53-Aurora kinase pathway as potential predictive biomarkers and therapeutic targets in COSAG and CMTN
  • Analysis of AXL and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition as a mechanism of resistance to PARP inhibitors in high-grade ovarian cancer
  • Study of the role of trabectedin in reversal to resistance to platinum and PARP inhibitors
 
Research lines:
  • Study of the generation of drug resistance in high-grade serous ovarian cancer and triple negative breast.The group focuses on studying the generation of mechanisms of resistance to different drugs used in clinical practice for ovarian cancer, specifically high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).
