Research Focus

By far the majority of cancer deaths are caused by disseminated solid tumors exhibiting therapy resistance. Consequently, our translational and multidisciplinary cooperation projects focus on the development of novel therapeutic strategies in highly therapy-refractory cancers including lung cancer, mesothelioma, brain tumors and melanoma.

Thereby we aim on the:

  1. identification of genetic and molecular factors driving solid tumor aggressiveness and therapy resistance thus representing potential targets for therapeutic interventions;
  2. development of novel anticancer agents and drug combinations allowing to avoid therapy failure and resistance development.
