Simone Hettmer M.D.

Researcher Photo

Funded: 07-01-2008 through 06-30-2011
Funding Type: St. Baldrick's Fellow
Institution Location: Boston, MA
Institution: Dana-Farber Cancer Institute affiliated with Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School

Dr. Hettmer is looking to better understand the development of rhabdomyosarcoma (a cancer of the muscle or soft tissue), its aggressive behavior and poor response to current therapies, by analyzing the differences between genetically altered muscle-associated cells and their normal counterparts. Her findings aim to clarify the cancer's early development and progression, and facilitate in the development of new, more effective treatments. Dr. Hettmer is funded by P.A.L.S. Bermuda with funds raised through the St. Baldrick's Foundation.

Sogol Mostoufi-Moab M.D.

Researcher Photo

Funded: 07-01-2008 through 06-30-2011
Funding Type: St. Baldrick's Fellow
Institution Location: Philadelphia, PA
Institution: The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia affiliated with University of Pennsylvania

Dr. Mostoufi-Moab is investigating how intensive chemotherapy and radiation therapy affect normal bones in young children. Bone development is affected by puberty, nutrition and mechanical loading. Chemotherapy and radiation for leukemia can affect bone development and strengthening, resulting in osteoporosis and bone fractures as early as young adulthood. The goal of this study is to determine bone structure and strength in 50 survivors of childhood leukemia 4-6 years after bone marrow transplantation. The results will guide future intervention studies to help develop appropriate therapies to reduce and/or treat bone disorders in survivors of childhood leukemia after bone marrow transplantation.

Eric Raabe M.D., Ph.D.

Researcher Photo

Funded: 07-01-2008 through 06-30-2011
Funding Type: St. Baldrick's Fellow
Institution Location: Baltimore, MD
Institution: Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine affiliated with Johns Hopkins Children's Center

Pediatric brain tumors form when the signals controlling normal brain development fail, and these remain one of the most difficult types of cancers to cure. Dr. Raabe is studying the process of how a neural stem cell turns into a normal brain cell, and investigating how to reprogram the out-of-control tumor cells into mature cells, to help to prevent and eradicate pediatric brain tumors.

Issai Vanan M.D., M.P.H.

Researcher Photo

Funded: 07-01-2008 through 06-30-2011
Funding Type: St. Baldrick's Fellow
Institution Location: New Hyde Park, NY
Institution: Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children's Medical Center affiliated with The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research

High grade gliomas, an aggressive type of brain tumor, have a survival rate of 1 to 3 years and are typically treated with radiation, surgery and chemotherapy. Dr. Vanan hypothesizes that the ionizing radiation (IR) used to treat the cancer activates a MRK protein that increases the invasiveness of the tumor cells, causing a high probability of relapse. By studying and understanding the causes of IR stimulated invasion and the recurrence of high grade brain tumors, he hopes to identify new drug targets to better treat and cure these aggressive tumors.
