Dr Ahmed's initial studies demonstrated that antigen-specific cytotoxic T cells could eradicate established brain tumors in medulloblastoma and Glioblastoma models. Subsequent studies have demonstrated that the tumor-specific T cells, unlike conventional therapies, can effectively target the stem cell compartment in the tumor eradicating experimental tumors in animal models. Aligning with his primary interest is studying the role of T cells in creating a tumor niche and studying T cell migration to distant tumor sites in the brain. Dr. Ahmed therefore has experience in developing and translating cell and gene therapy studies to the clinic. Currently, Dr. Ahmed is the principal investigator on 3 clinical trials targeting Glioblastoma and Osteosarcoma by administering tumor-specific T cells to. All studies are FDA, IRB, RAC and IBC approved.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Research Consortia Gulf Coast Consortia Immunology Cluster  Training Grants The Cancer Therapeutics Training Program (CTTP)  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Associate Professor Pediatrics, Hematology-Oncology Cell & Gene Baylor College of Medicine
