Clinical Trials

Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency Natural History Study Not Recruiting
More
The purpose of this study is to describe the range and incidence of symptoms, treatments, and complications related to pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD). Eligible patients are those of all ages with known PKD or with a hemolytic anemia and a family member with PKD. The study will collect retrospective medical history, routine clinical care data, and quality of life measures at baseline and annually for patients with PKD.

Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial. For more information, please contact Heather Hilmoe, CRA, 650-725-1662.

Research Interests
My research is focused on attaining a better understanding of the initiation, maintenance, and progression of tumors, and their response to current therapies toward improving future treatment strategies. In this effort, I employ tools from functional genomics, computational biology, molecular genetics, and mouse models.

Clinically, I specialize in the care of patients with lymphomas, working on translating our findings in prospective cancer clinical trials.
