Dr. Ivana Gojo is a Hematologist/Oncologist in Baltimore. Her clinical focus is on diagnosis and management of patients with acute leukemias (AML, ALL) and other myeloid malignancies (MDS, MPNs, CML), with emphasis on the development of novel therapeutic approaches for these diseases. She is nationally and internationally recognized expert in clinical translation of novel therapeutics for acute leukemias and principal investigator on multiple multi-center investigator-initiated studies. Dr. Gojo joined the Johns Hopkins faculty in 2012 as the Co-Director of Leukemia Drug Development Program. She has served on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Investigational Drug Steering Committee since 2014. Dr. Gojo received a Service Star Award from Johns Hopkins Medicine Service Excellence in 2018 for her exemplary care of leukemia patients. Dr. Gojo contributed to the clinical translational and drug development effort of multiple novel agents targeting pathogenic pathways in patients with acute leukemia. Her research efforts are now concentrated on the development and integration of novel immunotherapies into therapeutic armamentarium for patients with acute leukemia. She mentors basic and clinical research fellows and junior faculty on the development and design of novel clinical trials and mechanistic laboratory studies associated with these trials. She served as a leukemia team leader on the National Institute of Health (NIH)/NCI N01 grant (Phase II consortium) (2009-2011), and is co-principal investigator (PI) on the Experimental Therapeutics (ET)-Clinical Trial Network (CTN) UM1 grant supporting early clinical trials.

As a physician scientist in the hematological malignancies and stem cell transplantation division with Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at the Johns Hopkins, my focus is on the various aspects of cellular therapy in the treatment of hematological malignancies. My primary research focus is to develop strategies to prevent relapse of hematological malignancies following allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Additionally, I serve as the director of the adult CAR T program for hematological malignancies as we grow our CAR T program to help patients with advanced hematological malignancies. My academic interest in this space lies in studying the aspects of toxicity of CAR T cell therapy with an aim to improve long term outcomes in these patients. Among hematological malignancies, myeloproliferative disorders are my area of interest and I work to study newer drugs in early phase of development and also its treatment using allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Patient appointments: 410-955-8893. Dr. Jain is highly rated in 16 conditions, according to our data. Her top areas of expertise are Myelofibrosis, Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN), Splenomegaly, Bone Marrow Transplant, and Splenectomy.
