The goals of this grant are to reduce the morbidity and mortality from cancer in San Diego County. Role: Director of the Biostatistics Shared Resource HHSN272201400051C (Carson) 09/30/14-09/29/19 0.43 calendar mos NIAID $ 1,146,909 Title: Adjuvant Discovery for Vaccines against West Nile Virus and Influenza The early stage discovery and initial characterization of novel adjuvant candidates for vaccines Role: Co-Investigator 1R01DE026644 (Gutkind) 01/01/17-12/31/21 0.6 calendar mos. NIDCR $285,092 Title: Targeting Signaling Vulnerabilities for Oral Cancer Prevention The long-term goal of our team effort is to define mechanism-based biomarkers predicting a response to metformin and suitable therapeutic options to overcome drug resistance. Ultimately, our planned studies will provide the foundation for patient selection (enrichment) for the design and implementation of future OSCC precision prevention trials. Role: Co-Investigator R01DE027325 (Varner) 09/15/17-08/31/22 0.6 Calendar mos. NIDCR $301,950 Title: Targeting the Innate Immune Response in HNSCC We propose to test the overall hypothesis that therapeutic strategies that block macrophage-mediated immune suppression will synergize with T cell targeted therapeutics to improve outcomes in HNSCC disease.

NIA $345,048 Title: Treating with Gamma-Secretase modulators to prevent neurodegeneration in mouse models of Down Syndrome and Alzheimer disease We aim to prevent Alzheimer disease (AD) in adults with DS (trisomy 21), referred to as AD in DS (AD-DS) by enhancing processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) to reduce the levels of the C-terminal 99 residue fragment (C99) and Aβ42.

Breath of Hope Foundation Grant 2017 (Bui) 05/01/17-02/28/21 0.3 Calendar mos Moores Cancer Center Pilot Projects $50,000 Title: Engineering lung cancer cells into immune stimulatory dendritic cells In order to improve responses to anti-PD-1 in non-small cell lung cancer, we hypothesize that administration of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines would increase the proliferation of responding T-cells while also providing more precursor T- cells to respond to anti-PD-1. To generate optimal DC vaccines, we will induce lung cancer cells to transdifferentiate into DCs while also transducing the cells with stimulatory proteins such as IL-17D. Role: Co-Investigator V Foundation (Contact PI: Varner) 11/01/17-10/31/20 0.24 Calendar mos. V Foundation $200,000 Title: Novel Strategies to Break Cancer Immune Tolerance This project will develop novel therapeutic approaches for HNSCC that are based on the inherent interplay of this cancer with the tumor immune microenvironment, using agents that are already in clinical development.
