The OHSU Knight Cancer Institute (KCI) is a pioneer in personalized cancer treatment and research, led by Dr. Brian Druker, whose development of Gleevec transformed Chronic Myeloid Leukemia from a fatal disease to a manageable one and proved that targeted therapies can work. The institute focuses on precision oncology, the early detection, prevention, and treatment of cancer, and creating a welcoming and supportive environment for its caregivers, researchers, and support personnel. Knight affiliates subscribe to three guiding principles: we are bold, we are supportive, and we work as a connected team in our fight to end cancer as we know it. We'd love for you to join us! The Knight Cancer Trial Network (CTN) Program at OHSU provides support in quality assurance and quality control programs, regulatory support, membership registration, education, and training specific to trials opened under NCI's National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN) and Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN).
