Abstract:

The search for the cure for cancer is currently a multi-billion dollar industry and the search for the elusive “magic bullet”, i.e. the perfect cancer drug that would interact therapeutically with cancerous tissues while having a minimal effect on healthy cells, is the topic of many research studies in the world today. A large number of novel drugs or drug complexes and conjugates are being synthesized and subjected to rigorous evaluation in the race to find the perfect cure. ECDG (Ethylene diCysteine DeoxyGlucose) seems to have promising cancer targeting ability. Even though this compound has

The impact of the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer presents an interesting case study in public health policy and resource allocation.

It is estimated that approximately 13-67% of people will have thyroid nodules during their life of which approximately 5% will be malignant.

Abstract:

Prodigiosins and tambjamines are natural compounds from bacterial and marine sources belonging to a family containing a common 4-methoxy-2,2'-bipyrrole core. These compounds have received a lot of interest due to their promising biological activities. Studies have suggested DNA as a potential therapeutic target for the natural prodigiosin and tambjamine due to their ability to facilitate oxidative DNA cleavage in the presence of Cu2+. Based on this we sought to study the metal binding activity of new prodigiosin and tambjamine analogues. A new prodigiosin analogue was synthesized and complexed

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the exact minimisation of treatment delivery time for Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) for the treatment of cancer using Multileaf Collimators (MLC). Although patients are required to remain stationary during the delivery of IMRT, inevitably some patient movement will occur, particularly if treatment times are longer than necessary. Therefore minimising the treatment delivery time of IMRT may result in less patient movement, less inaccuracy in the dosage received and a potentially improved outcome for the patient.

Proton therapy is a relatively new treatment modality for cancer, having recently been incorporated into hospitals in the last two decades.
