Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
My research focuses on studying triple-negative breast cancer biology and identifying targeted treatment strategies. I am interested in designing breast cancer clinical trials with strong translational endpoints so that we can identify a subset of patients who benefit the most from the targeted treatment. Other interests include, prevention strategies for hormone receptor-negative breast cancer and survivorship issues.
Clinical Trials
- Recruiting A Randomized, Phase 2, Neoadjuvant Study of Weekly Paclitaxel With LCL161 in Patients With Triple Negative Breast Cancer
- Not Recruiting A Study of Trastuzumab Emtansine, Paclitaxel, and Pertuzumab in Patients With HER2-Positive, Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer
- Recruiting The Study Evaluating Efficacy And Tolerability Of Veliparib in Combination With Temozolomide or In Combination With Carboplatin and Paclitaxel Versus Placebo in Subjects With BRCA1 and BRCA2 Mutation and Metastatic Breast Cancer
- Recruiting A Study of Pertuzumab in Combination With Herceptin (Trastuzumab) And Vinorelbine in First Line in Patients With Metastatic or Locally Advanced HER2-Positive Breast Cancer
- Recruiting A Pharmacokinetic and Randomized Trial of Neoadjuvant Treatment With Anastrozole Plus AZDO530 in Postmenopausal Patients With Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer
