Understanding how a new drug can selectively fight childhood cancer cells
Testing a new type of targeted treatment that applies to multiple types of childhood cancers.
We have been funding expert research since 2016, aiming to ensure that every child and young person has a safe and effective treatment for their cancer, and that they can live long and happy lives post-treatment.
Testing a new type of targeted treatment that applies to multiple types of childhood cancers.
Studying how neuroblastoma cells and immune cells interact over time to see how the cancer adapts to treatment.
Looking at how brain tumours hijack immune cells, forcing them to support cancer growth instead of fighting it.
Testing medicines that can correct the genetic messages that help cancer cells grow out of control.
Developing a new dye to make kidney cancer surgery safer and more effective.
Investigating a new theory for how kidney cancer grows and spreads.
Improving genetic testing for children with kidney cancers like Wilms tumour and finding a way to improve diagnosis and relapse monitoring.
Investigating a protein found on leukaemia stem cells, the cells which cause relapse, and whether it could be a good drug target.
Looking at whether a pre-existing drug could be an effective and safe treatment due to its ability to target cancer cells directly.
