Project Acronym: TRACEPIGEN
Project title: Tracking systemic therapy resistance of lung and colorectal cancer through targeted NGS analysis of genetic and epigenetic variants in liquid biopsies
Principal Investigator: Miljana Tanić, PhD, Senior Research Associate, Institute for Oncology and Radiology of Serbia
The TRACEPIGEN project addresses a major clinical issue in cancer treatment – the emergence of resistance to systemic drug therapy.The TRACEPIGEN project focuses on the analysis of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) to study the evolution of genetic and epigenetic landscape in response to systemic therapy to identify biomarkers for dynamic monitoring during cancer progression.
TRACEPIGEN brings together a group of enthusiastic young researchers with complementary skills to work on an ambitious project incorporating cutting-edge methodology with an exciting clinically relevant research question.
