Research is a driving force in our patient care. Dr. Brian Druker (left), Knight Cancer Institute CEO, and Dr. Gordon Mills are internationally recognized cancer scientists. Mills, who also holds a Ph.D., is director of precision oncology.

Your care team at the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute will include world leaders in treating blood disorders and blood cancers. Our CEO, Dr. Brian Druker, played a central role in developing  Gleevec, a lifesaving medication for chronic myeloid leukemia. We are also helping lead Beat AML, a national effort to find new treatments for acute myeloid leukemia.

We offer you:

  • Doctors who are also part of OHSU’s Center for Hematologic Malignancies, with detailed expertise in even rare blood diseases.
  • Team-based care, with specialists meeting often to discuss each patient and develop the most effective treatment options.
  • Deep specialization, helping us precisely match treatments to your specific blood cancer or disorder.
  • An emphasis on research that translates laboratory findings into patient care.
  • Access to clinical trials, giving our patients the chance to try promising new therapies.
