FNL Small Molecule Studies
These studies were acquired from Robert Kinders at Ft. Detrick on the recommendation of Ralph Parchment as a starting point for collecting data at the very beginning of the project and are a good representation of a clinical trials data model.
P30 Grant Holders - Genomic Data
In 2016 the NCI awarded 8 1-year supplements to support research in canine immunotherapy via collaborations between NCI-designated cancer centers and veterinary medical colleges
Goals included:
•Sequence (whole exome and RNAseq) of at least 25 canine tumors and their normal controls in one or more of the following tumors: B-cell lymphoma, glioma, osteosarcoma, melanoma, bladder cancer and mammary cancer
•Determine mutational load
•Characterize potential neoantigens that can bind canine MHC complexes
•Characterize T lymphocyte numbers and subsets and other relevant aspects of the tumor microenvironment in canine tumors
