OncoProTools

Scope and objectives

OncoProTools wants to force breakthroughs in cancer diagnosis and therapy by: (1) exploring innovative venues for protease targeting in CAR T cell therapy. (2) discovering novel vectors that bind to other TME proteases: cathepsins S, B, L and granzyme B; and (3) personalize applications of protease targeting: deliver innovative diagnostics through deeper understanding of TME biology.

OncoProTools will deliver a training program that truly captures the MSCA values to 10 Doctoral Candidates. They will benefit from an international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral network and will be provided with all capabilities to become leaders of tomorrow's R&I in patient-centered oncotherapy and diagnostics.
