Pashtoon Kasi, Medical Director of GI Medical Oncology at City of Hope Orange County, shared on LinkedIn:

“I love our collaborations with surgeons. Colorectal cancer is so multi-disciplinary.

Our new CHAMP trial: investigator initiated.

CCR5 Targeting Leronlimab in Combination with Hepatic Arterial Infusion pump with Floxuridine and Systemic for the treatment of liver Metastases affecting Patients with colorectal cancer.

We’re exploring whether this combination can enhance efficacy while mitigating toxicity.

And this collaboration is especially meaningful: Mustafa Raoof and I went to the same medical school at the Aga Khan University, in the same class, and even the same group!

Now, years later, we have clinic together and we do trials/research together at City of Hope.”
