Dr Robert Chiesa
Overview
Dr Robert Chiesa graduated in Medicine at the University of Milan, Italy and then he trained in paediatric haemato-oncology and stem cell transplant in Monza, where he worked on several research projects related to new drugs in relapsed ALL.
After his specialisation in Paediatrics, he worked 2 years at the San Raffaele Institute in Milan, where he published in the field of stem cell transplant in thalassaemia and stem cell gene therapy in primary immunodeficiencies.
In 2009 he moved to the Bone Marrow Transplant Department at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, where he works as consultant in Bone Marrow Transplant and CAR-T cell therapy. He has led on several clinical studies in malignant (B-ALL, T-ALL, AML) and non-malignant (chronic granulomatous disease, infantile osteopetrosis, X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy) diseases, as well as pharmacokinetics studies on Busulfan and Treosulfan. He runs the radio-immunotherapy (RIT) service with Yttrium-90 at GOSH, as part of the RIT phase 2 study. He leads on the stem cell transplant program in inborn errors of metabolism, and he has co-led the stem cell gene therapy trial in C-ALD.
He is the clinical transplant lead on the allogeneic CAR-T cell therapy program in T-ALL and AML. He is the BMT Specialty Lead.
