James L. Gulley is an American cancer researcher and the Director of the Medical Oncology Service at National Cancer Institute.[1]

Early life and education

He graduated from Loma Linda University, California[2] and his M.D./Ph.D. Medical Scientist Training Program, at National Institutes of Health (NIH) and his dissertation on tumor immunology.[3] Later, Gulley did his residency in internal medicine at Emory University in 1998, followed by a medical oncology fellowship at the NCI.[4]

Research and career

Gulley did his research in immunotherapy for prostate cancer. His studies involved the use of cancer vaccine[5] and immune checkpoint inhibitors or other strategies to enhance vaccine-mediated killing.[6] Since 1999, he ran clinical trials at the NCI,[7] serving as Principal Investigator or an Associate Investigator on approximately 40 trials. He is also running studies on cancer patients.[8] [9] [10]

Publications

He published over 250 research papers & book chapters across leading journals.[11] [12] Some of his notable publications are listed below:

FDA approval

At the 2010 ASCO meeting Gulley and his group reported on the use of Ipilimumab with a vector-based vaccine for treating advanced prostate cancer. This phase I trial using PSA-TRICOM with Ipilimumab (Ipi) showed promise for Overall Survival (OS).[21] Ipi is used in melanoma vaccine clinical trials.[22] It was approved by the FDA in March 2011.[23] [24] [25] [26]
