XXI FERO Grant – Dr. Berta Casar Martínez

21st FERO Grant

Dra. Berta Casar Martínez

Researcher at the Institute of Biomedicine and Biotechnology of Cantabria
PROJECT
Development of a therapeutic response marker for metastatic melanoma
GRANT AMOUNT
€80,000

Her project aims to establish a new predictive biomarker for response to melanoma treatment. It involves developing a new diagnostic kit capable of predicting the emergence of resistance to conventional melanoma treatments. The clinical use of this biomarker will allow for better stratification and personalized treatment of melanoma patients. Through the development of this new biomarker, it will be possible to identify tumors that are susceptible to treatment. Consequently, patients will be able to benefit from more effective treatment tailored to their tumor and avoid unnecessary adverse effects.
