Norwegian University Of Science And Technolology

Neuro-oncology

Clinical research includes treatment-focused studies in recurrent grade 3 and grade 4 glioma, with attention to therapeutic activity and tolerability in aggressive central nervous system tumours. The sponsor also supports work using PSMA theranostics in this setting.

  • Recurrent high-grade glioma
  • 177Lu-PSMA and 68Ga/177Lu-PSMA approaches
  • Safety and efficacy in brain tumour treatment

These activities reflect interest in advanced radioligand-based strategies for difficult-to-treat malignant brain disease.

Thoracic oncology

The sponsor funds studies in small-cell lung cancer, including both limited disease and extensive stage settings. Research centres on combining immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and thoracic radiotherapy to improve survival outcomes.

  • Limited disease small-cell lung cancer
  • Extensive stage small-cell lung cancer
  • Atezolizumab, durvalumab, and thoracic radiotherapy

Research in this area emphasizes treatment intensification and multimodal care for high-risk lung cancer.

Neurological pain disorders

Clinical work includes intervention studies in refractory chronic cluster headache, with a focus on targeting the sphenopalatine ganglion using botulinum toxin and image-guided delivery techniques. The research addresses persistent headache symptoms that are difficult to manage with standard therapy.

  • Chronic cluster headache
  • Sphenopalatine ganglion targeting
  • Botulinum toxin treatment strategies

This area links pain neurology with procedural and device-assisted treatment development.

Endocrinology and autoimmune diabetes

Research activity also extends to Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA), with interest in beta cell function, metabolic control, and HLA-DR3DQ2 status after GAD-alum treatment. The sponsor’s work examines immune-mediated diabetes progression and long-term disease status.

  • LADA
  • Beta cell function and metabolic control
  • HLA-associated autoimmune diabetes

These studies focus on the interface between immunology, glycaemic regulation, and adult-onset autoimmune diabetes.

Alzheimer’s disease

The sponsor is involved in research on the early symptomatic phase of Alzheimer’s disease, supporting clinical investigation in neurodegenerative disease and early-stage cognitive decline.

  • Early symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease
  • Neurodegeneration
  • Cognitive impairment

This field adds a neurodegenerative dimension to the sponsor’s broader clinical portfolio.
