Clifford A. Hudis, MD

I am a medical oncologist with research interests in all areas of care related to breast cancer. My clinical practice is devoted solely to the treatment of patients with breast cancer; and my research is focused on prevention of the disease, prevention of recurrence after surgery, and treatment of recurrences.

Working with a broad team of experts at Memorial Sloan-Kettering and throughout the world, I am involved in clinical and translational studies that aim to develop better hormone therapies, improved chemotherapy drugs, more-effective and less-toxic methods of drug delivery, and newer highly specific agents. This work is conducted both at Memorial Sloan-Kettering, through the Breast Cancer Disease Management Team and the Breast Cancer Medicine Service, and also through my role as the Breast Committee Co-Chair of the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (a national clinical research group sponsored by the National Cancer Institute). In addition, I am fortunate to serve on the editorial boards of several leading cancer journals and in several capacities with the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO).
