Nicholas Christian DeVito

I am an Assistant Professor of Medical Oncology who primarily treats patients with colon cancer and gastroesophageal cancers, where I also conduct early phase immunotherapeutic trials. My laboratory and translational research are focused on tumor immune evasion and immunotherapy, particularly in the setting of metastasis. This work has led to a specific interest in tumor-mediated development of dendritic cell tolerance and suppressive myeloid populations. The ultimate goal of these studies is to create biomarker-directed immunotherapies for advanced gastrointestinal cancers.
