SUMMARY

The research interests of Bradford (Brad) S. Hoppe, M.D., focus on improving therapeutic ratio in the management of lymphoma and solid cancers by reducing the risk of toxicities from radiation, while simultaneously trying to improve cure and overall survival with proton therapy. His research contributions have helped shape the national management guidelines for prostate cancer, lymphoma, and head and neck cancer.

Focus areas

  • Using particle therapy to improve overall survival among patients with lung cancer
  • Improving the therapeutic ratio in the management of Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
  • Understanding radiation-induced heart disease and mechanisms for minimizing injury and therapeutic options
  • Improving the quality of life in patients with prostate cancer through the use of radiotherapy

Significance to patient care

Dr. Hoppe's research efforts aim to maximize the therapeutic effect from radiotherapy, while identifying ways to minimize the harmful effects of treatment.
