Overview of Dr. Gabrilove

Janice L. Gabrilove, M.D., is a world-renowned expert on the role of hematopoietic growth factors in normal and malignant hematopoiesis; and the role of these cytokines in ameliorating disease and treatment-related myelosuppression. She previously served on the faculty at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where she rose to the rank of Associate Professor of Medicine. In 1998, she was recruited to The Mount Sinai School of Medicine as The James F. Holland Professor of Medicine, and Chief of the Division of Medical Oncology. She presently serves as the Associate Director, Education & Training for the Tisch Cancer Institute, an NCI-Designated Cancer Center at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. She also serves as the Director of the Clinical Research Education Program out of the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences and oversees the Certificate, Masters of Science (MSCR) and PhD in Clinical Research.

Dr. Gabrilove is the recipient of a composition of matter and use patent for the discovery of human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), and was the first to demonstrate that it could alleviate certain harmful effects of chemotherapy on blood-cell production. G-CSF, now produced commercially by Amgen, Inc. under the trade-name Neupogen & Neulasta, is used worldwide as a supplement to chemotherapy. Dr. Gabrilove was the first to report on the ability of G-CSF to mobilize progenitors into the peripheral blood, an observation which has revolutionized the way in which bone-marrow transplantation is performed with the development of peripheral blood stem-cell transplants. Dr. Gabrilove has been awarded two additional patents for novel therapeutics fostering leukemic cell maturation, currently approved by the FDA, for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL).

Dr. Gabrilove is the recipient of numerous awards and presently holds 4 patents related to her work. She is a member of the American Society of Clinical Investigation
