Speaking on new targeted agents for lymphoid malignancies
As a physician-scientist with a background in molecular biology and oncologic drug development, Prof. Danilov focuses his research on experimental therapeutics in lymphoid malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). More specifically, his lab investigates drug resistance in lymphomas as well as novel targets in the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Building on his pre-clinical discoveries, he has launched multiple early-phase clinical trials with novel agents.
