<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Brendon Stiles, MD, is Professor and Chief, Thoracic Surgery and Surgical Oncology, Department of Cardiothoracic &amp; Vascular Surgery at Montefiore-Einstein.&nbsp; Dr. Stiles is also the Associate Director for Surgical Services in the Montefiore-Einstein Cancer Center. Dr. Stiles&rsquo; clinical focus is on the treatment of lung and esophageal cancer and on neoadjuvant immunotherapy. Taking a patient-first philosophy, Dr. Stiles provides world-class personalized care, using minimally invasive, organ-sparing techniques and targeting surgical therapy to the specific needs of the patient and his or her individual tumor.</p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Dr. Stiles is also heavily involved with translational and basic research.&nbsp; Translationally, Dr. Stiles is interested in neoadjuvant immunotherapy and in predicting and augmenting response to immunotherapy.&nbsp; &nbsp;In the laboratory, he has been funded by the AATS, TSF, the Lung Cancer Research Foundation, the DOD CDMRP Lung Cancer Research Program, and the Mark Foundation.&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Dr. Stiles' laboratory currently investigates the protein ART1, an extracellular mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase.&nbsp; Recently, Dr. Stiles and his team discovered that ART1 may play an important role in one mechanism of resistance in lung cancers. ART1 mono-ADP-ribosylates the P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) on immune cells, which ultimately causes NAD-induced cell death (NICD) in T cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. They found ART1 to be highly expressed in multiple human non-small cell lung cancer cell lines and in the majority of human lung adenocarcinomas they sampled.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>ART1 expression allows cancers to blunt the immune response against them. Indeed, they found that inhibiting ART1 with a therapeutic monoclonal antibody in mouse models of lung cancer caused a dramatic reduction of tumor burden and an enrichment of immune cells in the tumor.</p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Current efforts are underway to better understand regulation of ART1 expression, to identify more targets of extracellular mono-ADP-ribosylation, and to refine pre-clincal models to test their therapeutic antibody targeting ART1.</span></p>
