About Madeleine Duvic, MD
Madeleine Duvic, M.D., I went to Duke to become a clinician scientist interested in T-cell immunology and in translational research. My goal is to understand the pathogenesis of T-cell mediated skin diseases in order to develop novel targeted therapy. I have collaborated with pharmacology to develop protocols and then conduct clinical trials that lead to the registration of new FDA approved agents for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma that include bexarotene (first rexinoid), denileukin diftitox (first targeted fusion toxin), and vorinostat (first histone deacetylase inhibitor). In addition to directing an NIH funded molecular biology lab and a clinical trials research team, I personally have cared for over 2,000 MD Anderson cutaneous T-cell lymphoma patients. I belong to the UT graduate school immunology program. As a past recipient of a K24 award in cutaneous oncology, I continue to actively mentor research fellows, residents, PhDs, and medical students.
