Specializations

Haematologic Malignancies

Clinical research in acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and multiple myeloma, with additional involvement in Hodgkin lymphoma and other aggressive B-cell neoplasms.

  • Leukemia
  • Lymphoma
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes
  • Multiple myeloma

The therapeutic profile also includes pediatric hematology, relapsed and refractory disease, and treatment strategies aimed at improving disease control in high-risk blood cancers.

Thoracic and Upper Aerodigestive Cancers

Active involvement in non-small cell lung cancer, small-cell lung cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, head and neck cancer, esophageal-region malignancies, and mesothelioma, alongside studies in advanced solid tumors with actionable molecular features such as KRAS G12C, EGFR, and PD-L1 expression.

  • Non-small cell lung cancer
  • Small-cell lung cancer
  • Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
  • Mesothelioma

Research interests extend to immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and combined modality treatment in locally advanced and metastatic thoracic and head-and-neck oncology.

Gastrointestinal and Hepatobiliary Oncology

Clinical trial activity covers colorectal cancer, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, biliary adenocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, primary sclerosing cholangitis, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and neuroendocrine tumors, including advanced and metastatic disease settings.

  • Colorectal cancer
  • Pancreatic cancer
  • Biliary tract cancer
  • Gastrointestinal stromal tumor

The therapeutic emphasis includes checkpoint inhibition, chemotherapy, and treatment innovation for hepatobiliary and lower gastrointestinal malignancies.

Melanoma and Other Solid Tumors

Research spans cutaneous malignant melanoma, stage III melanoma, stage IIB/C melanoma, breast cancer, endometrial carcinoma, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, urothelial carcinoma, and renal cancer, with attention to both resectable and advanced disease.

  • Melanoma
  • Breast cancer
  • Endometrial carcinoma
  • Urothelial carcinoma

Additional interests include adjuvant therapy, perioperative treatment, and biomarker-defined approaches in advanced solid tumors.

Neurology, Immune-Mediated, and Inflammatory Disorders

Clinical involvement also includes multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, migraine, pulmonary sarcoidosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, psoriasis, and immune thrombocytopenia, together with selected cardiovascular and metabolic conditions.

  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Migraine
  • Autoimmune disease
  • Inflammatory lung disease

The therapeutic scope includes immunomodulation, anti-inflammatory treatment, and management of chronic immune-driven disorders.
