Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
My research focuses on breast cancer treatment and survivorship. My primary research interest is the development of novel strategies for the treatment of early stage triple-negative breast cancer. Other areas of interest include prevention of cardiac damage associated with breast cancer treatment and cardiotoxicity of anti-cancer agents.
Clinical Trials
- Phase II Gemcitabine + Carboplatin + PARP Inhibitor BSI-201 (Iniparib) in Neoadjuvant Tx Breast CA Recruiting
- Phase II Veliparib or Placebo +/- Temozolomide or (Carboplatin & Paclitaxel) in Metastatic Breast CA Recruiting
- Chemotherapy With or Without Trastuzumab After Surgery in Treating Women With Invasive Breast Cancer Recruiting
- Management of Insomnia in Breast Cancer Patients Recruiting
- Pilot Study to Determine Radioiodide Accumulation and Dosimetry in Breast Cancers Using 124I PET/CT Recruiting
