July 31, 2018
Biographies:
Andrew J. Armstrong MD MSc, Full Professor of Medicine at Duke University, Durham, NC. He is a clinical and translational researcher focused on drug development and biomarker studies in prostate and kidney cancer. This research includes prognostic and predictive biomarkers, circulating tumor cell biology, and how cancer spreads (metastasis). He oversees multiple clinical trials of new therapies for patients ranging from new hormonal and chemotherapies to new immunotherapies and molecularly targeted agents. Additionally, Dr. Armstrong is an Associate Professor of Medicine, Associate Professor in Pharmacology and Cancer Biology and Associate Professor in Surgery
