Biography
Dr. Moore is director of the Bras Family Drug Development Program at Ontario Cancer Institute/Princess Margaret Hospital. This program was selected by the NIH as one of seven north American sites to perform new drug development of novel anti-cancer agents. This has lead to a major expansion of both the laboratory and clinical components of the drug development program.
Areas of focus for new drug development are signal transduction inhibitors, modulation of gene expression and angiogenesis.

To evaluate the performance of active surveillance as a management strategy in broad populations and to inform the development of surveillance schedules by individual patient data regarding timing and type of relapse.
Overall survival and clinical characteristics of pancreatic cancer in BRCA mutation carriers
PubMed.gov
2014-09-01
The BRCA1/2 proteins are involved in regulation of cellular proliferation by DNA damage repair via homologous recombination. Therefore, BRCA1/2 mutation carriers with pancreatic cancer may have distinct biologic outcomes.
A phase I dose escalation trial of tremelimumab (CP-675,206) in combination with gemcitabine in chemotherapy-naive patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer
PubMed.gov
2014-09-01
Tremelimumab (CP-675,206) is a fully human monoclonal antibody binding to cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA4) on T cells that stimulates the immune system by blocking the CTLA4-negative regulatory signal. Combination with standard chemotherapy may strengthen antitumor therapy. This is a phase Ib, multisite, open-label, nonrandomized dose escalation trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of tremelimumab combined with gemcitabine in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
