El objetivo es dise\u00f1ar nuevos f\u00e1rmacos dirigidos a mol\u00e9culas y genes espec\u00edficos que causan enfermedades infantiles. Los f\u00e1rmacos dirigidos han demostrado ser m\u00e1s eficaces que la radioterapia o la quimioterapia para tratar ciertos tipos de c\u00e1ncer y presentan menos efectos secundarios debilitantes, como n\u00e1useas, p\u00e9rdida de peso y fatiga.<\/p>\n<p>En la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Stanford, el Dr. Michael Cleary, director de la Divisi\u00f3n de Biolog\u00eda del C\u00e1ncer Pedi\u00e1trico, lleva a cabo una investigaci\u00f3n pionera que podr\u00eda conducir al desarrollo de terapias dirigidas para leucemias, linfomas y otros c\u00e1nceres infantiles. Sin embargo, para Cleary y otros cient\u00edficos, conseguir apoyo financiero para la investigaci\u00f3n b\u00e1sica en oncolog\u00eda pedi\u00e1trica es un desaf\u00edo constante.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRelativamente pocos ni\u00f1os reciben un diagn\u00f3stico de c\u00e1ncer\u201d, afirma Cleary, profesor de Biolog\u00eda del C\u00e1ncer Pedi\u00e1trico y profesor de patolog\u00eda de la C\u00e1tedra Lindhard Family. \u201cNo tiene sentido financiero que una gran empresa farmac\u00e9utica haga una gran inversi\u00f3n para un n\u00famero reducido de casos. Por lo tanto, corresponde a las instituciones acad\u00e9micas realizar investigaci\u00f3n b\u00e1sica que genere nuevas terapias para ni\u00f1os\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Para las miles de familias cuyas vidas han sido trastocadas por el c\u00e1ncer, cada d\u00f3lar destinado a la investigaci\u00f3n b\u00e1sica es un d\u00f3lar bien invertido. Basta con preguntarles a Simone y Tench Coxe, de Palo Alto. En 2003, los Cox llevaron a su hijo de 6 a\u00f1os, tambi\u00e9n llamado Tench, al Hospital Infantil Lucile Packard por un fuerte dolor de est\u00f3mago y un ganglio linf\u00e1tico inflamado en el cuello.<\/p>\n<p>Las pruebas revelaron que Tench padec\u00eda linfoma de Burkitt, un c\u00e1ncer del sistema linf\u00e1tico. Con un tratamiento temprano, los ni\u00f1os con Burkitt tienen una tasa de supervivencia del 85 %. A los pocos d\u00edas de su diagn\u00f3stico, se someti\u00f3 a la primera de cuatro rondas de quimioterapia intensiva en Packard.<\/p>\n<p>El r\u00e9gimen de cuatro meses fue dif\u00edcil para la familia Coxe. &quot;Durante 25 o 30 noches, nos turn\u00e1bamos para dormir en el hospital&quot;, recuerda Simone. &quot;Es una situaci\u00f3n dif\u00edcil para las familias que est\u00e1n all\u00ed, pero el personal es incre\u00edble. Realmente marcan la diferencia&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>La quimioterapia tuvo \u00e9xito y hoy, Tench est\u00e1 libre de c\u00e1ncer. Est\u00e1 en s\u00e9ptimo grado y disfruta del baloncesto, el f\u00fatbol y leer sobre la historia de la antigua Grecia y Roma.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTuvimos la suerte de estar cerca de un hospital de clase mundial\u201d, dice su padre. \u201cPero ser de clase mundial no se consigue de la noche a la ma\u00f1ana. Simone y yo sol\u00edamos dar por sentada la salud. Entonces nos dimos cuenta, \u00a1caramba!, de que esto le pod\u00eda pasar a cualquiera, en cualquier momento. Fue entonces cuando decidimos que realmente quer\u00edamos apoyar la investigaci\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer pedi\u00e1trico\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Desde 2004, la familia Coxe ha apoyado el trabajo de Cleary y la Divisi\u00f3n de Biolog\u00eda del C\u00e1ncer Pedi\u00e1trico. &quot;Gracias a sus donaciones, hemos podido contratar a m\u00e1s becarios postdoctorales en nuestro laboratorio para realizar experimentos innovadores que de otro modo ser\u00edan dif\u00edciles de financiar&quot;, afirma Cleary.<\/p>\n<p>La generosidad de los Cox ya ha dado lugar a un resultado importante. Un investigador postdoctoral del laboratorio de Cleary descubri\u00f3 recientemente que hasta el 10 % de todos los c\u00e1nceres de sangre pedi\u00e1tricos dependen de una enzima asociada con la enfermedad de Alzheimer y la diabetes, que afectan a millones de personas en todo el mundo. Es el tipo de descubrimiento que probablemente despertar\u00e1 el inter\u00e9s de la industria farmac\u00e9utica, afirma Cleary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMe reun\u00ed con los Cox y estoy bastante impresionado con su comprensi\u00f3n de la necesidad de apoyar la investigaci\u00f3n acad\u00e9mica b\u00e1sica como fuente de nuevas terapias pedi\u00e1tricas\u201d, a\u00f1ade.<\/p>\n<p>En 2010, Tench y Simone aumentaron su apoyo anterior con un importante compromiso para ayudar a financiar el proyecto de expansi\u00f3n de Packard Children&#039;s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLa medicina mejora cuando la gente invierte en ella\u201d, dice Simone. \u201cNos beneficiamos de todos esos a\u00f1os de investigaci\u00f3n sobre el linfoma. De cara al futuro, queremos que el Hospital Infantil Packard sea el mejor en todo, no solo en la atenci\u00f3n oncol\u00f3gica. Sirve bien a la comunidad, y nosotros formamos parte de ella\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La terapia dirigida se ha convertido en un santo grial en la medicina pedi\u00e1trica.
