I received my education at the University of Pavia, where I obtained the M.D. degree cum Laude (1981) and the specialization in Internal Medicine (1986). In 1993, I received the specialization in Hematology at the University of Parma. From December 1999 to June 2011, I was a member of the active staff in Onco-Hematology at the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale Tumori in Milano, where I also served (2005 to 2011) as Director of the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Manipulation Unit. From 2006 to 2016, I served as Associate Professor of Medical Oncology at the University of Milano. In 2011, I moved to the Âé¶¹´«Ã½AVÔÚÏß¿´ Clinical and Research Center, where I currently am Section Chief of Lymphoid Malignancies and Cancer Therapeutics. In January 2017, I was appointed as Associate Professor of Hematology at Âé¶¹´«Ã½AVÔÚÏß¿´ University.
Translational Research
My activity is focused explicitly on translational research aimed at: (i) early phase preclinical and clinical development of molecularly targeted agents or monoclonal antibodies (naked, drug-conjugated, bispecific) for the treatment of relapsed/refractory lymphoma; (ii) pharmacological targeting of tumor microenvironment in lymphoma; (iii) optimizing the clinical management of lymphoma patients using the liquid biopsy and circulating tumor DNA.
Clinical Research
I am the principal investigator or co-investigator of phase 1 and 2 clinical trials aimed at the development of novel anti-cancer immunotherapy in relapsed/refractory Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. As of Oct 30, 2019, scientific publications include 245 peer-reviewed articles in journals covered by the JCR®. H-index (Google Scholar) is equal to 42
