Highlights
Coordination of the Lung Cancer CRP (2013-15).
The Group is PI in the Integrated Research Projects of Cancer and Interventional Bronchology_ SEPAR, coordinating the management of clinical informa- tion from the participating cohorts and the collec- tion and processing of biological samples.
Cooperation agreements with Cancer RETIC_ ISCIII and the company AMADIX for innovation in oncolo- gy diagnostic tools.
Epigenetic analyses are feasible in EBUS-NA cell blocks and may identify methylation patterns asso- ciated with worse prognosis. Methylation of p16 and APC genes in NSCLC patients was associated with advanced staging and lower 6-month survival. Con- tinuity of the project in the Lung Cancer CRP 2016- 2018.
COPD CRP, the group has maintained the research on respiratory microbiology and the relationship with the disease. Functional changes during exac- erbation have been described by shotgun sequenc- ing. These changes are associated to Carbohydrate metabolism and Cancer and Cell growth and Death, with potentially significance in the natural history of COPD patients suffering frequent exacerbations, when COPD risk factor for lung cancer.
Group PI in the multicentric and coordinated IP PI15 / 00167 project “Respiratory Microbiome in COPD”, to start in 2016, and workpackage in the CRP_COPD.
PI of the NEUNOS14 project. The 1st phase is com- pleted. The incidence of nosocomial pneumonia and characterization of patients affected has been described before implementing preventive action. The 2nd phase has been initiated.
Cooperation agreement with the Agencia de Salud Pública de Cataluña that certifies the group as a ref- erence center for typing Legionella in Catalonia.
Patent P201531409 and cooperation agreeement with GAS Natural Fenosa company for extensión thereorf.
The group has took part in the preparation of Pul- monary Hypertension CRP, to run from 2016, as a research line, assuming responsibilities in the work packages to be developed.
