About
At DASPO we conduct high-quality quantitative research on survival analysis and related topics in the field of personalised oncology. We are active in the development of new methodologies for inference on the effectiveness of multimodal treatments in fighting cancer. Our group is also interested in the correct application and adaptation of existing statistical techniques to an oncology setting.
The research group is active since June 2015, when the first KiKa-funded project on the efficacy of chemotherapy regimens on survival outcome in patients affected by osteosarcoma started.
Projects
Projects
DASPO is currently running several research projects. Of particular interest are therapy modifications like delays and dose reductions induced by acute toxicity.
Supported by KWF, DASPO developed a dynamic prognostic model for predicting survival and local recurrence under different treatment protocols in patients soft-tissue sarcoma, given individual and tumour characteristics. This model is currently embedded in the PERSARC (PERsonalised SARComa Care) app, which has now become an integral part of the daily practices of numerous physicians as a support tool in shared decision-making. Given its established validity, collaborations are currently underway on several projects across Europe, using PERSARC as a mathematical tool to enhance knowledge in eSTS.
