New Leaders, the Good Doctors G & R

Post by Ryan » Sat Mar 02, 2019 6:54 pm

Thought this would be a good bookmark for this board, for any new browsers seeking to learn more about our new leadership team at the helm for Phase III initiation and regulatory filings. Seems the perfect fits and I don't think anyone can refute that we are in a better place now than in late September with these new leaders.

Here are the good doctors credentials:

Dr. Gutierrez has more than 20 years of experience in clinical development and a deep knowledge of data collection/monitoring, signal detection, risk management and benefit-risk quantification and assessment, with expertise in both pre- and post-registration settings, including multiple product approvals. Most recently, he was the President of Innovation and Co-founder of Clindatum, LLC, a consulting firm focused on the clinical development of small molecules, biologics and devices. Prior to that, Dr. Gutierrez was Senior Director, Drug Safety and Pharmacovigilance at Pharmacyclics and a member of the hematology-oncology development team. Dr. Gutierrez has also been part of the oncology development teams at Exelixis, Inc., Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, and Celgene Corporation.

Dr. Rizo has more than 10 years of experience in hematology-oncology clinical development, leading teams through the entire drug development process from Phase 1 through Phase 3 clinical trials and regulatory submissions. Most recently, she was Executive Director, Strategy and Clinical Lead at Celgene Corporation, working across the myeloid portfolio. While there, she led submission activities and participated in strategic and business development initiatives. Prior to that, Dr. Rizo was a Senior Director, Compound Development Team Leader at Janssen Research and Development, LLC (Janssen) for all Phase 1 myeloid assets, and Global Clinical Leader for all late-stage myeloid assets, including imetelstat from 2014-2018. In these roles, she had oversight and leadership responsibilities for overall clinical development strategy, study designs, execution and data interpretation for all related programs. In addition, Dr. Rizo was a core member of Janssen’s Hematology Strategy Team, and in this role, participated and led diligence projects in hematology. Previously, Dr. Rizo was Global Clinical Leader for the ibrutinib mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) program and was responsible for all MCL studies led by Janssen. During her initial tenure with Janssen, Dr. Rizo worked on a variety of Velcade clinical trials in lymphoma and multiple myeloma
