The FCT-UT Austin project THER-PBCT aims to prove that Proton Boron Capture Therapy (PBCT) can lead to an increased biological response of ductal pancreatic cells accumulating boronated micelles, within a PBCT strategy with a theranostic nature. If successful, this strategy would contribute to a more personalized radiotherapy of pancreatic cancer patients with better ability to predict the therapeutic outcome.
