Secreted PD-L1 variants mediate resistance to PD-L1 blockade therapy in non-small cell lung cancer More

To identify molecular targets and compounds for cancer therapy

We discover and develop the novel molecular-targeted drugs by using Cancer Cell Informatics.

Telomeres, cell immortality and cancer stemness as therapeutic targets

We promote genome science-driven research for targeted therapy and personalized medicine

We focus the research between clinical samples and imaging the molecular target
