Aim of the joint call Transnational research on Rare Cancers The challenges related to research and treatment in rare cancers, are intimately tightened to the low incidence of any single clinical-pathological entity currently listed among these cancers. Aim 1: Design and conduct of translational research studies exploiting/combining resources from current clinical trials, bio-repositories and epidemiology-type resources. Aim 2: Development and exploitation of translational research platforms (e.g., patient derived xenograft models/organoids/tissue collections) to study drug responses/resistance and toxicity, and perform drug screens or repurpose approved anticancer drugs. AIM 3: Implementation of precision biomarkers for better stratification of the clinical cohorts.
