“Dr. Hussain heads the genito-urinary oncology
program. He has developed and led a number of clinical
trials in this area. One focus has been in recurrent and
locally advanced hormone sensitive high risk prostate
cancer where his group is evaluating multi-modal
treatment approaches. He has also been evaluating novel
agents and combination therapies, including bone
directed treatments, in advanced prostate cancer. Dr.
Hussain has an active research laboratory. His
laboratory is studying xenograft and transgenic mouse
models of prostate cancer to identify molecular
responses to hormone ablation and chemotherapy, with the
goal to translate this work into optimally designed
therapeutic clinical trials. Several clinical trials in
prostate cancer at the UMGCC have stemmed from such
studies. The other major focus of his laboratory is to
study molecular pathways regulating calcium homeostasis,
including adaptive mechanisms in response to calcium
dysregulation in prostate cancer.” (Arif Hussein, MD)
