Bio: Dr. Siddiqui is an Assistant Professor in Genitourinary Medical Oncology at the University of Texas MD Anderson. He is a clinical and translational investigator with a focus on:1) biomarker-rich trials of novel immunotherapy strategies in prostate cancer, with a special emphasis on T cell engagers; and 2) improving outcomes in immune-mediated toxicities through identification of mechanistic biomarkers for early detection and rational intervention. He serves as a principal investigator on multiple clinical trials of T cell engagers in prostate cancer, including leading multicenter sponsored trials and investigator-initiated studies. He is a member of the MD Anderson IOTOX Leaders’ Group, meeting a critical need as immunotherapy combinations with higher rates of toxicities are growing rapidly. He has a special interest in immune-mediated myocarditis and myositis, which carry a high mortality rate. His recent work identified a novel population of IL-1-expressing macrophages in human heart tissue from patients with immune-mediated myocarditis that represents a potential therapeutic target for which a rational clinical trial is under development. The long-term goals of this work is to maximize efficacy and minimize toxicities of these immunotherapy strategies in patients.

While our team was having its weekly Best of Oncology conference planning meeting during lunch today, we received a surprise visit from Dr. Leming's wife, Tracy, along with a massive bag of cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory.

When asked what the surprise desserts were for, Tracy replied, "It's Philip Leming Day in Cincinnati!"

We then discovered a framed proclamation on Dr. Leming's office wall of many certificates, which the mayor declared September 29, 2022, was indeed "Philip D. Leming, M.D. Day." However, our team will continue celebrating our beloved Medical Director on this day every year.

"I want people to be able to feel that we listened, that we genuinely care, and that we will use all resources that exist on the planet Earth to improve their prognosis, their care, their life, or just give them hope that they are not without the potential of a better day tomorrow." - Dr. Philip Leming

Thank you for everything you do, Dr. Leming, and happy Philip D. Leming Day to all who celebrate 🎉
