Worldwide, more than 550,000 new cases of head and neck cancer (HNC) occur each year, resulting in approximately 300,000 deaths annually. It is the 6th most common cancer in both Europe and South America. A major reason for the high mortality rate for this cancer is the late stage of diagnosis for many patients. Accurate assessment of the prognosis of HNC cases also allows for appropriate…
INCiTO-INOTE will continue to support the scientific program previously created by the INCiTO, exploring bench-to-bedside-to-bench concepts, in order to face the challenges that are still limiting cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The Institute will explore its large experience in genetics, epigenetics “comics”, bioinformatics and biomarkers to focus in areas where it can be wor…
Gastric Adenocarcinomas (AdGs) present high mortality rates worldwide. Whereas the pathological aspects of the disease are well defined, the current knowledge status of its genesis and evolution remain to be translated to a better diagnosis or to a more effective management: the most contemporary treatment modalities available were not yet able to modify the natural history of the disease…

The overall aim of HEADSpAcE is to address the overall problem of (i) late stage at diagnosis, and (ii) the high disease morbidity and mortality associated with head and neck cancer (HNC), with the overall goal to understand and improve early detection and clinical outcome. The overall challenges are to identify (i) reasons for delayed diagnosis in diverse populations, (ii) the role of hu…

Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is characterized by the inherited predisposition to cancer, high risk of developing tumors at an early age and multiple primary tumors. LFS is an autosomal dominant disease and germline TP53 mutations were recognized as the main molecular mechanism responsible for the syndrome. In Brazil, LFS is present in 0.3% of the South and Southeastern population due to the…
