Overview

I specialize in leukemia, myeloid neoplasm, adult bone marrow transplantation, and cellular therapies. I have been inspired by many patients and their loved ones going through the challenging journey to cure underlying leukemia and myeloid neoplasms and feel very privileged to serve them. I am dedicated to clinical research that aims to expand access to bone marrow transplantation and cellular therapies. I am passionate about improving the outcomes of adult bone marrow transplant patients by preventing the relapse of leukemia. In order to do this, we are developing a comprehensive machine learning algorithm to predict relapse after transplantation. I strive to make a meaningful difference in the treatment of patients with hematologic malignancies.

I entered medical school for the sole purpose of learning more about human diseases, so that I could focus my laboratory efforts on improving the human condition. However, I was surprised to find myself drawn to clinical care. I care for people afflicted by acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. In this role, I have had the privilege of treating people facing life-threatening illnesses. I strive to gain the trust of each of my patients, so that I can help them make difficult treatment decisions. I engage in clinical research, evaluating novel agents that directly target the cancer cell to improve the degree of success in treating this illness. My patients benefit from my understanding of the newest available treatments, and also have access to promising investigational agents, when appropriate. In my faculty position at Duke University, I enjoy educating current oncologists as well as the next generation of physicians. Dr. Erba is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
