Summary

The research project focuses on analyzing the spatial organization of cells within various solid tumors, utilizing advanced technologies enabling in-depth multi-parametric analysis of tumor and immune cells. The primary objective is to understand the spatial distribution of cellular subpopulations within each type of tumor, while secondary objectives include correlating these data with clinical aspects and identifying potential therapeutic targets. The study involves 1000 patients with primary or metastatic tumors and spans a duration of 5 years, from 2024 to 2028. No experimental treatments are planned; rather, only spatial imaging analyses with multiple markers will be conducted. Data analysis involves descriptive statistical methods and hypothesis testing to generate hypotheses for subsequent studies. The analyses will be performed using SPSS® version 21.0 software for Windows®.

Conditions

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Spatial analysis of paraffin samples from solid tumors	The intervention involves the collection of tumour samples included in paraffin present in the pathological anatomy archive or requested to external archives for samples older than 2003 and the subsequent multiparametric spatial analysis of the main populations of the microenvironment tumor.
