2011 Lung Cancer Research Foundation Annual Grant Program
Jorge Gomez-Guitterez, PhD
University of Louisville
Research Project:
Enhancement of E2Ftr-mediated tumor suppression by oncolytic adenovirus
Summary:
The grant extends LCRF funding for gene based therapy models using viral transfer for lung cancer. It is hoped this highly specific directed therapy could achieve effective elimination of lung cancer cells with potentially less side effects compared to traditional methods. This grant will study the additive benefit of an additional viral vector to earlier work.
