IgnitePLASMA A minimally Invasive surgical platform aGainst paNcreatIc and biliary Tract cancErs using cold atmospheric PLASMA
Coordinator: UNIVERSITY OF CYPRUS (CY)
Cancer is one of the major causes of death in Europe. Pancreatic (PC) and biliary tract (BTC) cancer are rare gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas with an increasing incidence particularly among the elderly and women in an ageing European population, and a poor prognosis poses major clinical challenges and public health burden. Cold atmospheric pressure plasma (CAP) has shown potential regressing various cancer types in the laboratory setting. Owing to their properties, CAP is a unique source of high concentrations of reactive radicals, electrons, ions, UV etc. that may induce various effects in …
About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)
Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.
EU contribution: €2.8M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 4 years from 2024-04-01 to 2028-03-31.
