Background

Current vaccine platforms have mixed success at preventing infection of new emerging infectious diseases and present several limitations. To overcome those limitations researchers at St Georges University of London have developed a protein-only based vaccine that is delivered via a respiratory route and generates robust mucosal immunity.

The development of a vaccine platform that creates an immune response in the lungs and the upper respiratory tract is...]]></description><pubDate>Tue, 26 Apr 2022 08:26:55 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17820</guid></item><item><title>Quasi-Diffusion Imaging, a Novel and Improved Quantitative MRI Method</title><caseId>T2018-0124</caseId><link>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17819</link><description>MRI method that allows faster data acquisition with lower noise and higher accuracy, with application in stroke, brain tumours and dementia



Background

MRI technology has revolutionised healthcare and is currently the leading method for clinical and research studies of the brain and other biological systems. Worldwide, there are more than 50,000 MRI scanners machines installed performing around 95 million scans per year. With the growing awareness about the benefit of early diagnosis, the rising demand for non-invasive procedures and the increase of the geriatric population there is a need ...</description><pubDate>Wed, 20 Apr 2022 08:37:42 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17819</guid></item><item><title>Tissue Iron Quantification in the Heart and Liver</title><caseId>T2017-0100</caseId><link>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17518</link><description><![CDATA[&shy;Proposal to build a centralised framework for automated T2* mapping in the heart and liver using cloud computing techniques.

&nbsp;

Background

Reliable tissue iron quantification is essential for preventing death and for managing chelation therapy in patients with thalassemia, sickle cell disease, plastic anaemia, myelodysplasia, and other transfusion-dependant anaemias. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance T2* has made a great impact on patient survival but there is a great need for improved access to this life-saving technique, especially in the developing world. To this end, analysis s...]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 18 Nov 2021 06:00:57 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17518</guid></item><item><title>Therapeutic Targets and Pain Stratification for Patients with Osteoarthritis</title><caseId>T2016-0063</caseId><link>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17517</link><description><![CDATA[&shy;Identification of a number of differentially-expressed genes in bone marrow lesions for stratification of patient pain.



Background

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease characterised by the deterioration of cartilage in joints resulting in bones rubbing together creating pain and impaired movement. According to the World Health Organisation OA is one of the ten most disabling diseases in developed countries and they estimate that 9.6% of men and 18.0% of women aged over 60 years have symptomatic OA (WHO, 2019).

Pain is the symptom driving individuals to seek medical attention, as ...]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Nov 2021 08:45:04 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17517</guid></item><item><title>Pregabalin for Hand Osteoarthritis Pain Management</title><caseId>T2015-0054</caseId><link>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17516</link><description><![CDATA[Treatment of osteoarthritis with Pregabalin in proof-of-concept clinical study has been shown to reduce pain and improve joint function.



Background

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease associated with the breakdown of joint cartilage and the underlying bone. Recent estimates from Arthritis Research UK suggest that around a third of people aged 45 years and over and up to around a half of people aged 75 years and over may be affected in the United Kingdom. The impact of OA costs the UK economy an estimated&nbsp;&pound;3.2 billion&nbsp;in lost production (UK NICE figures).

Background

Leukemia is a cancer of the white blood cells. Types of leukemia include acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and hairy cell leukaemia. In 2015, leukemia was reported as being present in over two million people worldwide and responsible for over 350,000 deaths. It is the most common type of cancer in children, with three quarters of leukemia ca...]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Nov 2021 08:20:28 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17515</guid></item><item><title>Allergen Delivery Inhibitors</title><caseId>T2009-0002</caseId><link>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17514</link><description>A developable candidate drug that displays in vivo efficacy in animal models with a good duration of action when delivered to the airways.



Background

Asthma remains a condition with significant unmet needs. Exacerbations of the disease result in intense breathlessness, frequently requiring hospitalisation, and are potentially fatal. There will be 400 million sufferers by 2025. House dust mites (HDMs) are globally prevalent and potently allergenic. As the most common indoor cause of allergy, they are of major clinical significance because they are pervasive and persistent triggers of asthma...</description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Nov 2021 07:51:58 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17514</guid></item><item><title>Tissue-type Mapping of Brain Tumours with MRI</title><caseId>T2013-0008</caseId><link>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17495</link><description><![CDATA[&shy;This invention provides a novel method of analysing MRI data of a tumour in order to determine the tumour type.



Background

Glial tumours are the most common primary brain tumour and exhibit a heterogeneous infiltrative growth pattern. Although biopsies are still key to assessing tumour type and grade, they do not provide a full 3D picture of the tumour characteristics. Conventional MRI provides 3D images with an indication of the tumour core and overall extent, but is not optimal for determining the tumour grade nor distinguishing the true extent of tumour infiltration into surroundin...]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Nov 2021 04:16:08 GMT</pubDate><author>enterprise@sgul.ac.uk</author><guid>http://stgeorges.testtechnologypublisher.com/technology/17495</guid></item></channel></rss>
