Specializations
Oncologic Surgery and Solid Tumors
Philipp Stiegler is involved in clinical research across a broad range of solid tumors, with a strong focus on surgical oncology and perioperative cancer care in the Department of Surgery in Graz. His trial portfolio includes malignancies of the lung, breast, head and neck, urothelial tract, liver, ovary, and prostate, reflecting interest in both localized and advanced disease settings.
- Non-small cell lung cancer
- Breast cancer
- Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
- Urothelial carcinoma
- Hepatocellular carcinoma
His oncology activity also extends to melanoma, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, and endometrial cancer, with therapeutic interest in both neoadjuvant and adjuvant cancer strategies.
Hematology and Cellular Malignancies
His research landscape includes multiple hematologic malignancies, particularly diseases requiring long-term disease control or transplant-related support. The trial portfolio spans acute leukemias, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, myelofibrosis, and multiple myeloma.
- Acute myeloid leukemia
- Acute lymphoblastic leukemia
- Chronic lymphocytic leukemia
- Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
- Myelofibrosis
He is also engaged in studies involving lymphoma subtypes, myelodysplastic syndromes, and neuroblastoma, indicating interest in both adult and pediatric oncology.
Transplantation, Kidney Disease, and Renal Protection
A major therapeutic area in his research is kidney transplantation and renal disease, including graft preservation, delayed graft function, and immunosuppression optimization. His trial activity also covers chronic kidney disease, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, immunoglobulin A nephropathy, and proteinuric kidney disorders.
- Kidney transplantation
- Delayed graft function
- Chronic kidney disease
- Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
- IgA nephropathy
He is additionally involved in research on post-transplant immunosuppression and renal complications linked to major surgery, highlighting a clinical interest in protecting kidney function across perioperative and transplant settings.
Cardiovascular and Metabolic Medicine
Philipp Stiegler’s trial involvement includes extensive work in cardiovascular disease and cardiometabolic disorders, with emphasis on prevention, risk reduction, and organ protection. Areas of interest include atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, heart failure, myocardial infarction, stroke, and pulmonary hypertension.
- Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
- Heart failure
- Acute myocardial infarction
- Ischemic stroke
- Pulmonary hypertension
His portfolio also includes obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia, and transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, showing engagement with metabolic and structural cardiovascular disease.
Autoimmune, Inflammatory, and Respiratory Disorders
His research interests extend to chronic immune-mediated and inflammatory diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, vasculitis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and hidradenitis suppurativa. This also includes disorders affecting skin, gut, and connective tissue.
- Systemic lupus erythematosus
- Systemic sclerosis
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Hidradenitis suppurativa
- Vasculitis
Additional respiratory and allergic interests include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis, eosinophilic esophagitis, and interstitial lung disease, reflecting a broad therapeutic engagement with chronic inflammatory conditions.
