RUN DIPG recently granted @uni_newcastle $63,191 to support research at the #DunLab.

This is where your incredible donations and support go to - deliveries of new equipment to the team in their moving towards a cure.

Pictured is the install of the Ultra-Low Temperature Storage Unit at the lab which will support the work of the team of researchers.

After a few false starts, the legends that are the @_the2montys_, there are new dates! They are auctioning off a wedding at @enzohuntervalley, with more than $80,000 worth of vendors chipping in to create one incredible package.

The auction is now scheduled for January 30 at 4:00 pm at Enzo, with the wedding to be held on Friday, June 24 this year. Anyone who has tried to book a wedding this year will know that Friday spots are rare, and these guys have pulled together an absolutely cracking package, including venue, celebrants, florists, jewellers and more! The best part is that everything in the package is donated, and money raised from the auction will go directly to RUN DIPG research projects, as we move towards finding a cure.

In one of our most meaningful research announcemen

In one of our most meaningful research announcements we have had the pleasure of making, we are proud to highlight the publication of the scientific journal article, "Preclinical and clinical evaluation of German-sourced ONC201 for the treatment of H3K27M-mutant diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma" in Neuro-Oncology Advances.

https://academic.oup.com/noa/article/3/1/vdab169/6432113

A collaboration between the #DunLab at the University of Newcastle, Hunter Medical Research Institute and the Chemistry Department at UNSW, the report collates the clinical journey of 28 children and their families who sourced anti-DIPG drug ‘ONC201’ from Germany. One of the main findings was that the German version of ONC201 showed the same preclinical and clinical efficacy as the compound used in clinical trials in the USA.

Whilst the findings provide hope and reassurance to #DIPG and #DMG families that may take this path, we acknowledge the families and the children for whom German-sourced ONC201 provided short-lived or no benefit.

With the excellent brainstem accessibility of ONC201 highlighted in this study, coupled with the emerging mechanisms of action revealed by DunLab, we can’t wait to see if #DIPGResearch can finally bring us a combination drug strategy that delivers long-term DIPG/DMG survivorship.

Our own Matt Dun will be joining a webinar tomorro

Our own Matt Dun will be joining a webinar tomorrow at 11 am AEDT, in partnership with the DIPG Collaborative, to discuss “Biologically designed combination treatment strategies for kids with diffuse midline glioma.”

We’d love for you to join us if you have time!
