Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria Pisana

Oncology

Research activity includes breast cancer and malignant pleural effusion, with interest in tumour control, surgical oncology, and locoregional treatment strategies for pleural involvement.

  • Breast cancer
  • Malignant pleural effusion
  • Pleural carcinosis

Clinical work in this area also reflects attention to markers of tumour proliferation and treatment response in solid tumours.

Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disease

The sponsor is involved in studies on systemic lupus erythematosus and Graves’ disease with Graves’ orbitopathy, focusing on immune-mediated disease control and long-term symptom management.

  • Systemic lupus erythematosus
  • Graves’ disease
  • Graves’ orbitopathy

Therapeutic interest extends to glucocorticoid management and the balance between disease suppression and treatment withdrawal.

Transplantation and Graft-versus-Host Disease

Clinical research covers patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, with attention to graft-versus-host disease prevention and post-transplant immune complications.

  • Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation
  • Graft-versus-host disease
  • Immune prophylaxis

Work in this field includes supportive approaches aimed at reducing transplant-related inflammatory morbidity.

Rare Genetic and Neuromuscular Disorders

The sponsor also studies laminopathies, including LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy, with interest in muscle function, disease progression, and biological markers linked to inherited disorders.

  • Laminopathies
  • LMNA-related congenital muscular dystrophy
  • Neuromuscular disease

This area reflects a focus on both adult and paediatric patients affected by rare muscle disease.
