This metabolic response is accompanied by immune system impairment, increasing the risk of post-operative complications. In this research line the group is working in a multidisplinary project within the ERAS® program at the Vall d’Hebron Hospital for the: Identification of inflammatory markers predicting improved recovery after surgery within an ERAS® protocol. MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTICS AND PREDICTION OF TREATMENT RESPONSE IN OVARIAN CANCER Ovarian cancer remains the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies due to its late diagnosis and high recurrence rates following treatment. There is a need to improve the early detection of the disease and identify predictive markers of treatment response. These diagnostic and predictive markers are being identified in proximal body fluids and patient-tissue samples. In this research line, the group has 3 ongoing projects: Proteomic biomarkers for an improved diagnosis in uterine aspirates and pap-smears. Proteomic biomarkers for the prediction of treatment response. SalivOmiX: A salivary miRNA-based test for ovarian cancer early diagnosis.

Eva Colás (Translational associated researcher) Dr. Melek Denizli (Technician) Research focus NEW MARKERS FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND PROGRESSION OF INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASIA OF THE LOWER GENITAL TRACT Persistent infections with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes are necessary, but not sufficient, cause of preinvasive and invasive lesions of the cervix and the lower genital tract. Although cancer screening prevention is based on HPV screening and pap-smear tests, it is essential to identify new molecular markers that can predict the transformation of HPV-associated lesions. In this research line our group is assessing: Identification of molecular markers associated to an increased risk of development, persistence and progression of preinvasive lesions of the lower genital tract.
