Immune-Image: Specific Imaging of Immune Cell Dynamics Using Novel Tracer Strategies

Project description

Imaging technology for assessment of patient immune status

Immunotherapy can effectively treat a number of serious conditions such as cancer and inflammatory diseases but a personalised approach is key. Blood and tissue markers coupled with non-invasive imaging could aid in assessing immune status in vivo, but this option has barely been explored. To this end, the EU-funded project will develop new immunotracers for imaging specific immune cell subsets, and then validate them in relevant disease models. The goal is to transfer them to manufacturing and then conduct smart clinical trials. This international multi-disciplinary consortium will work on optimising molecular imaging techniques for assessing patient immune status via immunotracers and developing personalised immunotherapeutic drugs.
