Description
Breast cancer is becoming a greater threat to women's health, but there are new treatments emerging that will help women with the battle, including tumor vaccines and therapies which enhance immune response to cancer. This program focuses on the newest treatments emerging from research and for which patients they will be most appropriate. Ellie Guardino, M.D., PhD., is an Instructor in the Department of Medical Oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Guardino earned her MD/PhD in Microbiology and Immunology from Georgetown University. Following her residency in Internal Medicine at Harvard, she completed a fellowship in the Department of Medicine, Division of Oncology, at Stanford. Dr. Guardino is developing immune therapies and vaccines for breast cancer including dendritic cell approaches and recombinant gene therapy vaccines for early breast cancers that are a high risk and for advanced breast cancer. She is actively involved in community education on breast cancer and hopes to keep women up to date on the latest diagnostic tests for detection and advances on the treatment of breast cancer. |
