Transplantation and Immunology

Kidney transplantation, renal graft failure, and solid organ transplantation are central areas of interest, with studies addressing HLA sensitization, immunosuppressive therapy, and Epstein-Barr virus replication in transplant recipients. The sponsor also funds work in hyperimmunized patients and transplant-associated viral control.

  • Kidney transplantation
  • HLA sensitization
  • Epstein-Barr virus
  • Solid organ transplantation
  • Immunosuppressive therapy

These activities reflect a strong focus on post-transplant immune management and infection-related complications in transplant medicine.

Infectious Diseases and Antimicrobial Treatment

The portfolio includes tuberculosis, strongyloidiasis, acute bacterial prostatitis, and febrile neutropenia, with additional interest in infectious disease control in vulnerable populations. Research also covers antibiotic discontinuation strategies and treatment approaches for difficult-to-manage infections.

  • Tuberculosis
  • Strongyloidiasis
  • Acute bacterial prostatitis
  • Febrile neutropenia
  • Infectious diseases

The sponsor is also involved in infection-focused studies in immunocompromised and paediatric settings.

Neurology, Stroke, and Migraine

Clinical research extends to acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion and migraine, including biomarker-oriented work in headache disorders. These studies connect neurovascular care with symptom control and treatment response assessment.

  • Acute ischemic stroke
  • Large vessel occlusion
  • Migraine
  • Neurovascular intervention
  • Biomarkers

There is also interest in linking clinical outcomes with measurable biological changes in neurological disease.

Oncology and Hepatobiliary Surgery

The sponsor funds studies in relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma, solid tumours, and liver tumors, alongside research in minimally invasive liver surgery. Additional work addresses anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and cancer-related infectious risk in paediatric patients.

  • Neuroblastoma
  • Solid tumours
  • Liver tumors
  • Minimally invasive liver surgery
  • Anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions

These topics show a broad engagement with oncologic disease management and procedure-guided tumour detection.

Metabolic, Renal, and Maternal Health

Research interests also include type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, diabetic retinopathy, and advanced chronic liver disease. The sponsor is active in preeclampsia prevention and in conditions related to adrenal insufficiency and pediatric endocrine care.

  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Chronic kidney disease
  • Diabetic retinopathy
  • Preeclampsia
  • Adrenal insufficiency

These studies span metabolic disease, renal complications, and pregnancy-related risk management.
