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:

  • Overall survival analysis of a phase II randomized controlled trial of a Poxviral-based PSA-targeted immunotherapy in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer[13]
  • Androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer[14]
  • Randomized phase II trial of docetaxel plus thalidomide in androgen-independent prostate cancer[15]
  • Combining a recombinant cancer vaccine with standard definitive radiotherapy in patients with localized prostate cancer[16]
  • Phase I study of sequential vaccinations with fowlpox-CEA (6D)-TRICOM alone and sequentially with vaccinia-CEA (6D)-TRICOM[17]
  • A randomized phase II study of concurrent docetaxel plus vaccine versus vaccine alone in metastatic androgen-independent prostate cancer.[18]
  • Immunologic and prognostic factors associated with overall survival employing a poxviral-based PSA vaccine in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer[19]
  • Ipilimumab and a poxviral vaccine targeting prostate-specific antigen in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: a phase 1 dose-escalation trial[20]

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]

Awards

  • He received Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineering “For randomized, controlled studies using novel, recombinant vaccines to reduce the progression of prostate and other cancers and increase survival.” [27][28]
  • He received Federal Laboratory Consortium Excellence in Federal Technology Transfer Award, a national award for “Development of first immunotherapy to treat chordoma, a rare bone cancer.”[29]
