Research is a driving force in our patient care. Dr. Brian Druker (left) 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. Physician and scientist 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.
