Dear Friends,
This past year, we celebrated a momentous milestone in the history of the
Cancer Center.
We officially became the University of Wisconsin Paul P. Carbone Comprehensive
Cancer Center. Additionally, the Cancer Center’s central research tower was named
the Harold P. Rusch Translational Research Tower.
welcome
With unparalleled leadership, Paul P. Carbone and Harold P. Rusch made cancer
research and patient care at the University of Wisconsin their lifework. Collectively,
they established a hard-earned, worldwide reputation for innovative cancer
research and treatment at the University of Wisconsin. The work of the two
men set a foundation for the Cancer Center’s evolution into the 21st century—
integrating basic science and clinical research more quickly into new patient
care options.
In the pages that follow, you will read more about both Dr. Carbone and Dr. Rusch
and the legacies they have left.
Decades of work by distinguished Cancer Center faculty have laid the groundwork
for improvements in health care for the people of Wisconsin and beyond. At
the Cancer Center, the science of medicine and art of compassion are carefully
balanced. By creatively blending the unique expertise and resources of many
across the UW-Madison campus, the Cancer Center achieves a rich synergy of
research, patient care, community service and education.
In this report, you’ll meet some of our researchers, physicians and staff—people
whose work continues to create milestones within the Cancer Center’s history.
On behalf of our faculty and the individuals and families who benefit from their
work, I thank you for your support of the University of Wisconsin Paul P. Carbone
Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Sincerely,

Comprehensive Cancer Center
director, George Wilding, MD. “His
was a remarkable achievement;
he developed not one cancer
center, but two. People talk
about translational research now,
but Rusch was working toward
creating complementary research
and clinical programs back in the
1930s.”
“Something Attempted,
Something Done”
Throughout his long and
productive life, Harold P. Rusch
(’31 BA ’33 MD) seems to have
quietly and effectively embraced
that sentiment. He chose it as the
title of his autobiography and as a
philosophy of life.
The man, who seven decades
ago began a career dedicated to
understanding and conquering
cancer, left an indelible mark
on medical science at the
University of Wisconsin and the
nation. A basic scientist first,
his contributions to the study
and treatment of cancer were
balanced by an equal genius in
building and administering the
first research center in the nation
dedicated to studying the causes
and potential cures for cancer.
Ultimately, he established two
world-class cancer centers on the
UW-Madison campus.
“Harold Rusch was a visionary,
a man decades ahead of his
“We didn’t realize he was
important,” remembers his
daughter, Carolyn Rusch
Schlotthauer, of Florida, “he was
just ‘Daddy.’ He was a kind,
nurturing father and grandfather to
Kristina and William. We were all
so very lucky to have him.”
Rusch was a Wisconsin native
who grew up in Merrill, about
20 miles north of Wausau. In
his memoirs, he credits his
interest in medicine to a boyhood
appendectomy that launched a
short career as surgeon to his
mother’s vegetables. That early
experience, and the influence of
his uncle, a Milwaukee physician,
led him to college and medical
school at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison.
“He was a wonderful, gentle,
knowledgeable person,” says his
second wife and widow, Louise
Van Wart Rusch, “and an excellent
judge of people.”
While still a medical student,
Rusch demonstrated an innate
interest in knowing more about
why certain treatments worked. In
1934, a former professor invited
him to teach physiology and
establish a research laboratory.
The offer forever shifted Rusch’s
career away from practicing
medicine and toward medical
discovery.
Also in 1934, the medical school
received a bequest of nearly
half a million dollars to support
“fundamental studies regarding
the nature and cure of cancer.”
The gift, coupled a year later by
one from the estate of Michael
McArdle, launched the school’s
cancer program, and Harold
Rusch’s life work.
“Harold Rusch was a humble yet
forthright man who was not afraid
to speak his mind,” says UW
professor emeritus Henry Pitot,
MD, PhD, who succeeded Rusch
as McArdle director. “His goal
was to significantly advance our
knowledge and control of cancer
in human patients. To realize his
goal Rusch brought together in a
single interactive laboratory some
of the brightest young minds in
cancer research.
“While he always discussed with
and urged his colleagues to
develop their studies as applied to
human cancer, it wasn’t until the
UW Clinical Cancer Center (later
known as the UW Comprehensive
Cancer Center) was established
that he came closer to his life’s
dream.”
At age 30 and only four years out
of medical school, Rusch worked
with the state architect to design
the first McArdle Laboratory, a
wing of the Medical Sciences
Center, and, 25 years later,
he helped design the existing
McArdle Laboratory.
“McArdle was his biggest pride
and joy,” says his step-daughter,
Virginia Francis of Middleton,
Wisconsin. “He was a natural
teacher—he always found a way
to enrich any experience—always
wanted to share his knowledge,
but he lived and breathed
his work.”
Rusch is also credited with
creating an exceptional intellectual
environment at UW, one which
encouraged talented researchers
and facilitated interactions that
sparked new ways of studying
a problem. It was Rusch who
recognized the potential of young
McArdle researchers such as
Nobel Prize-winner Howard Temin,
PhD, whose enzyme research
helped to explain how retroviruses
cause cancer.
According to UW professor of
oncology and medical genetics
Harold Rusch continued his cancer research while directing
Wisconsin’s two leading cancer centers.
William F. Dove, PhD, one of six
Rusch faculty hires who later
became members of the National
Academy of Sciences, Rusch
“combined a gentle demeanor
with decisive action. This first
enabled him to build a rapport
as a mentor of many young
investigators, each driven by a
creative ego. The second allowed
him to connect with national
leaders, such as Congressman
Melvin Laird, to crystallize
legislation that promoted cancer
research funding.”
Throughout his life Rusch served
on panels and commissions
designed to set national and
international cancer policy. He
received numerous professional
awards and was active in many
cancer-related organizations,
including the American Cancer
Society.
hope
Rusch became the inaugural
director of the McArdle Laboratory
for Cancer Research in 1940. It
was the first basic science cancer
center in an academic institution
in the United States and from
the beginning it was committed
to understanding the causes of
cancer and to training exceptional
basic science researchers.
Rusch was a dedicated scientist.
In 1941 he identified the
wavelength of ultraviolet light that
produces skin cancer. Subsequent
studies demonstrated a link
between obesity and cancer,
and his belief that cancer was
caused by a series of biochemical
changes became the basis for
studies on the stages of tumor
formation.
known as the UW Comprehensive
Cancer Center (UWCCC). The
move from basic science research
to the treatment side of the cancer
fight was simply a continuation
of the same overarching vision.
A year later, the National Cancer
Institute recognized the UWCCC
as one of the nation’s first
university-based comprehensive
cancer centers.
Rusch hired his successor at the
UWCCC, Paul P. Carbone, MD
in 1976, and in 1979 retired from
UW-Madison. He continued to be
active in professional activities,
frequently coming into his office
when he and Louise weren’t
traveling throughout the world
visiting family and colleagues.
In 1988 Harold Rusch succumbed
to the disease that he spent a
lifetime trying to understand and
conquer.
In 1972 Rusch founded and
became the first director of UW
Clinical Cancer Center, later

“Paul Carbone is recognized
as a genius in his field. He
was truly a founding father of
cancer research and treatment.
At Wisconsin he laid a solid
foundation upon which we
continue to build today.”
–George Wilding, MD
When Paul Carbone arrived at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison
in 1976, he was already a wellrespected and award-winning
cancer researcher and physician.
He came to the UW Clinical
Cancer Center—which under
his leadership developed into
the internationally renowned UW
Comprehensive Cancer Center—
during a period of transition. The
UWCCC had been created just
three years earlier by Harold P.
Rusch, MD, founder of UW’s
McArdle Laboratory for Cancer
Research, and Rusch was looking
for a successor.
In Carbone, Rusch found an
enthusiastic, talented leader with
vision, dedication to research
and profound respect and
concern for people with cancer.
In his memoir, Rusch praised
Carbone’s “excellent credentials
and wide experience in both
general medicine and cancer
chemotherapy,” and his “deep
concern for the problems and
welfare of patients.” Rusch’s
thought was to establish an
exemplary clinical program
to complement the already
recognized basic oncology
research program at the McArdle
Lab, and Carbone was the
man he wanted to lead clinical
oncology research at the UW.
“He was very passionate about
his work and making lives better,”
according to his daughter,
physician Kathryn Carbone, MD
’83. “He talked constantly about
the quality of life and the need for
people to fight cancer—even at a
time when it was common to send
those with a diagnosis of cancer
home to die.” Not surprisingly, as
chairman of the Breast Cancer
Task Force, he created a vision
for research policy of adjuvant
chemotherapy for people with
early-stage breast cancer.
Says George Wilding, MD, director
of the UW Paul P. Carbone
Comprehensive Cancer Center,
“Paul Carbone is recognized as a
genius in his field. He was truly a
founding father of cancer research
and treatment. At Wisconsin he
laid a solid foundation upon which
we continue to build today.”
His colleagues recognized
Carbone’s dedication and medical
acumen. He received countless
national and international awards
throughout his lifetime, including
the prestigious Lasker Award for
Medicine, generally considered
America’s Nobel Prize, for
combination chemotherapy
for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma,
demonstrating that cancer often
can be a successfully treated
disease.
A New York native, Carbone came
to the UW after retiring from the
Commissioned Corps as Chief
of the Medical Branch at the
National Cancer Institute (NCI), the
culmination of an 18-year career
in the Public Health Service. While
at the NCI, Carbone started his
20-year service as chair of the
Eastern Cooperative Oncology
Group (ECOG), leading that
organization to become one of the
nation’s most respected clinical
research groups, with studies
conducted in more than 300
hospitals and medical schools.
He was a founding member
and president of the American
Society of Clinical Oncology
and president of the American
Association for Cancer Research.
As the editor-in-chief of major
oncology journals and author of
nearly 400 publications, Carbone
was influential in setting research
policy, both in the U.S. and
abroad.
In 1994, Steven T. Rosen, MD,
then editor of Contemporary
Oncology, described Carbone as
“... a giant in our field, a pioneer
in clinical investigation and a role
model to scores of academicians
involved in cancer research.”
Outside of his cancer world,
Carbone rode his bicycle, sailed,
had a garden and liked to travel.
But, says daughter Kathy, golf was
his passion. “He loved his golf,
even confessing one day that the
real reason he was late to dinner
was that he stopped for 9 holes of
golf after returning from a trip!”
Carbone and his wife Mary
had seven children—three are
physicians, one is an attorney and
three hold MBAs—and
16 grandchildren.
Paul Carbone was a beloved clinician, fondly remembered by both
his patients and colleagues.
When son Matthew Carbone
recalls his father, he says “He did
what he did because he loved to
do it, not for the recognition or
money. As I grew up I was, and
continue to be, so proud to meet
his patients and students and
learn of his achievements.”
“He is always in my head. I feel his
positive advice with me every time
I make a significant decision.”
Matt describes Carbone’s lasting
legacies as his students and his
children. “Professionally, he was
a great teacher who left behind
wonderful legacies at the UW
but also in Taiwan, Singapore,
Africa and China. Personally, he
was perhaps most proud of the
accomplishments of his children.”
hope
Carbone’s scientific legacy is
enormous. A member of the first
certifying committee for the
American Board of Internal
Medicine for Medical Oncology, he
helped write the first exam to set
the standards for medical
oncologists in the United States.
He was also the inspiration and
mentor for hundreds of cancer
specialists who today continue to
advance cancer discovery and
care, including oncology treatment
centers and training programs in
Uganda, Taiwan and Singapore.
Carbone was responsible for
instituting medical oncology
rotations through hospice care
programs, and was a devoted
supporter of the Don and Marilyn
Anderson Hospice Center in
Fitchburg, Wisconsin. Even after
he officially retired in 1997,
Carbone averaged 35 hours a
week back in the UW Hospital
and Clinics’ “K tower,” continuing
drug research, guiding young
researchers and caring for
patients.

–Matthew Carbone
When he died unexpectedly in
2002, Carbone was still deeply
involved in the subject that shaped
his life—he was in the Far East,
helping develop a comprehensive
cancer program at the National
University of Singapore...and
playing golf.
Kathy’s wish for her father is that

research
How has your career path led to
your current work?
I first studied chemistry, then
biochemistry, then genetics.
I came to McArdle in 1984
and did genetics research on
fruit flies until about six years
ago. Now, as faculty advisor at
the Small Molecule Screening
Facility (SMSF), I’m combining all
those interests—small molecule
screening is sometimes called
“chemical genetics.”
What are small molecules?
A small molecule is a chemical;
it can be either a synthetic or a
natural product. It is small only in
comparison with larger biological
molecules, such as proteins,
which tend to be hundreds of
times bigger.
Why are they important to
cancer research?
Small molecules are important
because some of them have the
ability to interact with, or bind
with, a biological molecule and
change its activity, to either inhibit
it or activate it. They become
tools for learning more about the
function of that molecule.
Also, if we can demonstrate that
a small molecule can affect a
particular protein, it may open the
door to developing a drug that
could work on that target protein.
Why was it important to
establish the Keck–UWCCC
Small Molecule Screening
Facility at the UW?
Small molecule screening is
a basic research tool with
very broad application. It’s
been going on for a long time
in industry, but it’s only fairly
recently that the thousands of
chemical compounds and the
technology—such as liquidhandling robots—have become
accessible to academic centers.
When the facility opened in 2003,
it was probably one of only six in
the country.
How does screening work?
We have a library of more than
60,000 chemical compounds,
in all different shapes, sizes and
colors. And for any particular
assay, or trial, we add them one at
a time and ask, does this have an
effect? It’s kind of the old needle
in the haystack; we’re looking for
one compound in 60,000 that has
an effect on an individual protein
or distinct cell line.
In addition to our chemical library,
there’s a lot of great chemistry on
campus. UW chemists bring us
novel compounds they’ve created
and ask us to determine if any of
them are effective against cancer
cells. So, we set up over a dozen
cancer cell lines—breast and
prostate and ovarian and lung, for
example. We can screen a couple
of hundred novel compounds,
indicating to the chemist if one
is more potent or one has some
specificity for a cancer type. That
helps them decide whether or not
to do more work with a specific
compound.
What is the Lead Discovery
Initiative?
In September, the Wisconsin
Alumni Research Foundation
(WARF) announced the Lead
Discovery Initiative, which can
provide funding for assays on
new compounds for chemists,
or for screening our collections
of compounds for biologists. A
committee reviews proposals from
around campus on a monthly
basis, and supports both types of
research.
Does the SMSF run assays
related to diseases besides
cancer?
Yes. As with any of the UWCCC
core facilities, the SMSF is
open to anyone on campus; it
is a terrific contribution that the
Cancer Center makes to the
entire research effort on campus.
We are starting to do more work
with viruses, and with infectious
disease and heart disease targets.

Milestone
Fl ow C ytometry Facil ity
In 1988 the UWCCC established
the Flow Cytometry Facility to
serve the many research needs
of its members. As the demand
for its services has increased,
both within the Cancer Center
and on campus, the facility has
expanded offerings to cover
many cancer and non-cancer
areas of biological research.
For more than 18 years, Kathy
Schell has worked in the Flow
Cytometry Facility.
How do campus researchers
use the Cancer Center’s Flow
Cytometry Facility?
The technology has applications
across all areas of biology. We
offer technical assistance and
cellular analysis to investigators
in more than 30 campus
departments. We have experience
with many applications and are
involved in developing many
others. Our users have access to
all of this experience.
What has inspired you the
most during the course of your
career?
My family, and a few great
teachers who were responsible for
my interest in science. However,
the research community here
is a never-ending source of
inspiration when they work with
us to develop new methods
and creative ways to use our
technology.
What would people be
surprised to learn about your
years at the Cancer Center?
I got this job by accident.
What are the challenges
for people involved in your
research?
The biggest challenge will be
securing funding to maintain
the cutting edge technology we
currently enjoy. There’s been a
recent explosion in technology
development, and a cytometer
purchased for $500,000 five years
ago will be out-of-date in the
next five years without significant
upgrades or replacements.
research
Name
What is flow cytometry?
Flow cytometry measures
multiple molecules in or on single
cells at a very rapid rate in a
liquid environment. A basic flow
cytometer contains a laser on
one side of a flow cell and a
light scatter detector on the
opposite side.
What sets the UWCCC Flow
Cytometry Facility apart from
similar facilities in the country?
Through the Cancer Center’s
support, we are able to maintain
state-of-the-art instrumentation
and have been successful in
obtaining National Institutes
of Health funding for major
instrument purchases. We are
educating our staff by sending
them to national and international
classes and meetings. As a
result, the facility has a broad
spectrum of equipment and the
knowledgeable staff to support
any requirements our research
community might have. We are
among a handful of core facilities
with this breadth of technology
and experience.
Where do you see flow
cytometry in the future?
Being able to examine a single
cell with its many molecular
components is the power of flow
cytometry; it will enable scientists
to make major strides in finding
cures and answers for incurable
diseases. Flow cytometry and
fluorescent image technology
will be essential in determining
why some cancers are more
aggressive than others; they
are likely to dissect the immune
response to world plagues like
AIDS, leading to an effective
vaccine.

CH E S S
University of Wisconsin
professor emeritus David
Gustafson launched
the development of the
Comprehensive Health

(CHESS), a computer-based
system of integrated services
designed to help individuals
cope with a health crisis or
medical concern.
education
What inspired your research
into using technology-based
health education and support in
helping cancer patients?
I have always been interested in
how people make health-related
decisions. The first work I did was
in mental health, using computers
as a tool to help people at risk for
suicide; then to help middle and
high school students be more
successful at school. I’ve always
felt that giving people accurate,
up-to-date information, tools they
can use to help make decisions,
and the support they need, is
critical to making good choices.
In 1990, this need for information
came crashing home when my
wife was diagnosed with breast
cancer. Here I was, working
in health decision-making my
entire career, and yet when that
diagnosis came, it was as if we
were both lost and unable to
think clearly. We had so many
questions—but didn’t even
know what questions to ask. We
wanted to know the best course
of treatment based on all the
scientific evidence out there, but
got different points of view from
different providers.
12
And beyond the scientific
information, we needed practical
information, like how and when to
tell our children about this. It was
a very, very difficult time. Once
my wife and I got through this
experience, several of us started
working on a computer system
specifically for women with breast
cancer and their families called
CHESS—the Comprehensive
Health Enhancement Support
System. It has now been used
by thousands of women, and just
last year it was translated into
Spanish.
about who will use and benefit
from such systems. For example,
our work has demonstrated that
all kinds of people—regardless of
income, education or experience
with computers—will use these
systems if given the opportunity.
We’ve also found that our
program can enhance the doctorpatient relationship. Oncologists
have consistently told us their
patients come in with more
relevant questions and have better
clinical visits when they have
access to high-quality information
and support.
Are there other CHESS
programs besides the breast
cancer module?
We have CHESS programs on
prostate and lung cancer, which
include an additional emphasis
on caregivers. We also have a
tobacco cessation module and are
developing a module for parents
with a child going through a bone
marrow transplant.
What is the future for using new
media technology to improve
outcomes in cancer care?
There are so many ways that it
can go. One of the biggest issues
is making technology usable
when people need it. Currently,
many people use CHESS from
laptops—so it is somewhat
portable. But we need to have it
even more mobile, using devices
such as Smart Phones which are
part of everyday life for so many
people now.
How has CHESS research
affected the way cancer
patients receive care?
Numerous clinical trials have
demonstrated that CHESS can
improve a variety of outcomes,
when coping with a cancer
diagnosis. These include quality
of life, emotional well being and
social support. This work has
inspired innovative internet-based
programs to help people facing
other health crises as well.
I think our work has also
challenged some early stereotypes
We need people to get the
information, support and coaching
they need—where ever they are,
instantaneously. So people waiting
for test results won’t need to sit
by the phone, they can get them
through a web-enabled phone as
soon as they are ready. We need
to make technology so easy to
use that it really is part of everyday
life—making a real difference
whenever and wherever people
need it.

projects. I’ve learned how to
derive satisfaction for patient
care through the hard work and
dedication of the clinic staff.
From a nurse perspective, I’ve
learned about courage, family
relations and how serous illness
can adversely affect a family or
pull a family together. I always
admire the hope and strength of
will our patients display. I believe
I have learned many life lessons
from our patients.
You have seen many cancer
patients over the years. Are
there any particular memories
that you wish to share?
I have been touched by many
patients and families. There have
been tears of joy and sadness
over the years. Once, I ran into
the mother of one of my former
patients and she introduced me
as the patient’s nurse as she
gave me a big hug. Recently, a
patient stopped me in our clinic
waiting room. She said she’d
been wanting to stop and tell me
that 10 years ago—when she
was first diagnosed and about to
undergo chemotherapy—she was
so distraught and I had taken her
into a room and listened to her
fears and concerns. She explained
that I had been so helpful to her
and she wanted me to know that.
It meant so much to me to know
that I had made a difference for
someone.

How has the way cancer care
is provided evolved throughout
your career?
There have been many changes
during my 30 years in cancer care.
For example, the change from
administering chemotherapy on
the inpatient units to an outpatient
setting has greatly increased.
Today, most treatment happens in
the clinic. The number of available
chemotherapeutic agents has
grown tremendously. We now
have more agents and more drug
combinations available to treat
a wide variety of cancers. In the
area of supportive care, we now
have better anti-emetic agents,
growth factors that support the
bone marrow, as well as increased
social work, health psychology,
nutrition and integrative medicine
support services.
developed here and then see that
drug or drug combination become
part of standard therapy.
What is your one wish as
cancer research and treatment
advances in the next few years?
There are really two areas that I
would like to see expanded. One
is to continue to educate society
about the risks of cancer and
how people can reduce their risks
by taking personal responsibility
for their health. Another is to
have better access to cancer
education, care and clinical trials
for underserved populations.
15
Do you have wonderful
retirement plans?
I am excited to be able to spend
more time with my family. My girls
live out of state and I would like to
be able to visit them more often.
My husband travels a lot and I am
looking forward to accompanying
him on some of these trips. With
my passion for cooking, I am
looking to take more advance
classes. And lastly, I would like to
explore my options for volunteer

Pharmace utical R e s earch C e nt e r
The Pharmaceutical Research
Center, under the direction of
Rebecca Marnocha, PharmD,
ensures the safe and ethical
provision of investigational
study drugs to research
subjects enrolled in Cancer
Center clinical trials.
education
Can you explain the role of
the Pharmaceutical Research
Center (PRC)?
The mission of the PRC is to
ensure investigational and study
drugs are safely and ethically
provided to people enrolled in
clinical drug trials within UW
Hospital and Clinics (UWHC)
and the Cancer Center. We also
educate and train health care
providers about investigational
drugs, clinical drug study design
integrity and human research
regulation; ensure drug research
protocols proceed optimally
through the UWHC medication
use system and in accordance
with all federal, state, institutional
and sponsor regulations; and
continually refine and expand our
services to meet the needs of the
research community.
To accomplish its goals, the PRC
offers study design assistance,
manages all aspects of drug
handling and accountability,
creates informational drug
monographs for health care
providers, engages in training and
quality assurance activities and
provides a 24-hour a day, 7-day
a week research pharmacist
on-call service.
16
While the PRC program serves
all clinical drug researchers at
UWHC, its association with the
Cancer Center is unique in its level
of commitment, formal relationship
and in the breadth and depth
of its services. PRC actively
participates in the Cancer Center’s
Experimental Therapeutics
research program, is involved
with numerous Cancer Center
committees, supports the Cancer
Center’s drug list database,
provides drug distribution services
for qualifying studies within the
Wisconsin Oncology Network
program and serves as a liaison
to the Cancer Center for research
infrastructure and UWHC issues.
What sets the PRC apart from
similar facilities in the United
States?
A quality pharmacy-based
research support program is an
integral factor to any institution’s
success in conducting clinical
drug research. The PRC program
at UWHC has been identified
as a model service by many
external agencies and has been
instrumental in creating UW’s
successful research infrastructure
environment. Compared to many
academic research centers, the
PRC program is among the largest
but its size is not what makes it
unique. Rather, it has been the
integration of the PRC program
within the UW clinical research
infrastructure, including
the Cancer Center and the level
of UWHC institutional support that
has made the difference.
Please tell us more about your
new role within UW School of
Medicine and Public Health.
The Director of Clinical Research
position was created to make
better connections between the
School of Medicine and Public
Health (SMPH), UWHC and UW
Medical Foundation (UWMF) and
to advance clinical research at
UW. I am excited about serving
in this new capacity and to be
a change agent for the global
infrastructure.
I will be responsible for fostering
positive working relationships,
optimizing operations, assuring
effective and efficient connections
and unifying strategic plans within
the clinical research infrastructure
of the SMPH, UWHC and UWMF.
I’ll be working to achieve a center
of excellence by providing a safe,
ethical, regulatory compliant,
resource sensitive, fiscally
responsible, efficient and effective
clinical research environment.
I will also be an infrastructure
consultant to the Health Sciences
Institutional Review Board, the
Office of Clinical Trials and the

William F. Dove, PhD, is the program leader of the Cancer Genetics program.
Milestone
C anc er G e n etics
William F. Dove, PhD, of the
McArdle Laboratory for Cancer
Research, leads the Cancer
Genetics program, which
involves research in 24 different
labs on the UW-Madison
campus.
The basic science of genetics
seeks the connections between
molecules that carry out a
process, and a phenotype, or the
expression of that process. Every
gene can be thought of in terms
of the molecule that it codes for.
When you have a mutated gene,
you therefore have a mutated
molecule and so a changed
phenotype—in this case the
cancer phenotype.
Can you give an example of this
type of research?
In my lab, our research starts
with mutations in certain key
functions called “gatekeepers.”
So we have both a mouse
family and a rat family that were
developed here at the university
which have mutations in the
How might such an
understanding lead to
treatments?
Sometimes we’ll see that we have
a more severe cancer when the
mutation inactivates the molecule.
This is called loss of function.
Then we say, well, perhaps if
we supply that function, we can
make it better. This gives us a very
concrete lead for a kind of therapy
that could be developed.
For instance, we’ve found there’s
an enzyme, a phospholipase,
that’s secreted within the colon,
but not from the tumor, from
neighboring healthy cells. When
it’s active, tumors grow more
slowly. So perhaps when this
product is diminished, replacing it
could prove therapeutic.
Why is colon cancer so
common?
The intestinal epithelium is the
most actively self-renewing tissue
in a mammal. Every week we
have a new intestine, in terms
of the cells that are present. A
very active turnover means a lot
of potential for error. There are a
number of protective mechanisms
to keep it from developing
growths, but these mechanisms
aren’t perfect. So colon cancer
is among the most common
cancers. But in terms of the
numbers of cell divisions that go
on, it’s quite remarkable that colon
cancer doesn’t develop every year
in every person.
What might such research mean
for early detection?
We are identifying molecules that
are associated with the tumors
and accumulate in various body
fluids, including blood serum.
These molecules give us a highly
sensitive way of screening for
tumor-bearing animals versus
normal animals.
research
Name
You’re the director of the
Cancer Genetics program.
What is genetics?
You may read about scientists
finding a gene for colon cancer,
or for breast cancer. What that
really means is they’ve found a
gene where a mutation makes a
big difference. But it doesn’t mean
that breast cancer involves only
that single gene. A cancer involves
many genes, perhaps thousands
of genes.
central gatekeeper for colon
cancer. When these animals
develop intestinal tumors, we
can study how other genes and
environmental factors interact with
the disease. What changes make
the cancer more severe, and what
changes make it better?
Right now there are not enough
trained gastroenterologists to
handle colonoscopies for the
whole population over 50. Since
people give blood samples when
they have a physical, if there were
a blood serum-based test, it might
become a less invasive form of
early detection.
19
Is there anything you want to
add about this program?
Research across the Cancer
Genetics program is drawn
together by the intersection
between classical genetics,
comprehensive molecular analysis
of genotype and phenotype, and
biostatistics. Finally, at the end of
the day, research findings must
be tested at the human level. The
Healthy Wisconsin initiatives of
our School of Medicine and Public
Health are very important in this.

Dr. Brad Kahl is the Director of the UW Lymphoma Service and Clinical Research Director for Hematologic Malignancies.
Milestone
Cli n ical R es earch
As a hematologist treating
many patients with lymphoma,
Brad Kahl, MD, finds his field
infinitely fulfilling. A clinical
researcher searching for new
and better cancer treatments,
he can look his patients in the
eye and tell them that he has a
very personal commitment to
improving their condition.
treatment
How did you decide to become
a hematologist-oncologist?
My father died of chronic
myelogenous leukemia (CML)
when I was 12. Obviously, that
had a big effect on me. I went
to medical school unsure of
what kind of doctor I wanted to
become. During the second year,
we covered hematology,
the study of blood disorders,
and it all clicked. After that,
there was never a doubt.
What sets the UW Paul P.
Carbone Comprehensive
Cancer Center apart in
providing cancer care?
Without a doubt, the cutting
edge research and treatments
combined with compassionate,
individualized care that we offer.
I have seen many patients seek
second opinions at other major
cancer centers and they almost
always come back, talking about
how lucky they feel to have the
Cancer Center in their backyard.
20
Are there any groundbreaking
initiatives on the horizon in
hematology?
Historically, multiple myeloma
was the worst possible blood
cancer diagnosis. However, in the
past five years there have been
several new treatments developed
for myeloma and several more
are in development. No single
treatment may qualify as a true
breakthrough, but when all of
the new options are considered
together, the progress in myeloma
is truly impressive.
Tell us more about your
clinical research.
I focus on developing new
treatments for patients with
lymphoma, which is cancer of
the lymphatic system. There
are approximately 40 different
kinds of lymphomas, so I find it
a very challenging area. Much
of my research has centered on
developing monoclonal antibody
therapy, which has far fewer side
effects than chemotherapy.
What challenges lie ahead for
individuals involved in your
research?
Our understanding of what makes
cancer cells tick is outpacing our
ability to apply that knowledge
to help cancer patients. There
are a multitude of reasons why.
The challenge is to take what
is learned in the laboratory and
rapidly apply this knowledge to
benefit our patients.
What will the future hold for
cancer research?
The future lies in translating
discoveries in molecular medicine
into personalized cancer care.
We are going to be able to test
tumor cells from two patients who
appear to have the same kind of
cancer and see that the cancers
are actually quite different at the
molecular level. Then we will be
able to select targeted agents
tailored to each individual. The
result will be better outcomes with
fewer side effects. It is going to be
exciting to see this unfold.
Is there anything else you would
like to share?
When my dad was diagnosed
with CML, there were no effective
treatments. A few years after his
death, some patients were cured
with bone marrow transplantation.
Now, virtually all patients with
CML can experience long-term
remission just by taking a pill a day
and bone marrow transplantation
is rarely needed. Now that’s
progress. There is reason to be
optimistic.

The Interdisciplinary Research Complex will be a powerful tool for advancing biomedical research on the UW campus.
Discovery
In t erdiscipl in ary re s e arch comp l e x
research
Medical and biological science
is continually evolving, and the
presence of the next generation of
biomedical research is dramatically
apparent on the west end of the
University of Wisconsin campus.
With an impressive footprint and
a total of 663,430 square feet
at completion, the emerging
Interdisciplinary Research
Complex (IRC) will be yet another
scientific milestone at the
university.
The facility will be a national
showplace, according to Paul M.
DeLuca, PhD, Vice Dean of the
UW School of Medicine and Public
Health and Associate Dean for
Research and Graduate Studies,
an innovative center designed to
remove barriers between basic
and clinical research.
“Our concept was totally visionary
at its inception more than a
decade ago,” says DeLuca, “now
others are applying the UW’s
original vision and creating their
own centers.”
The IRC’s essential purpose is
to inspire creative new ways for
scientists to pursue biological
research and to apply their ideas
directly to problems clinicians face
everyday. This model, frequently
described as translational
research, is a relatively new
approach to scientific discovery,
and one that wouldn’t have been
possible even 10 years earlier.
24
The design of the building is
meant to encourage integration
and flexibility across disciplines;
to facilitate a creative exchange
of ideas. Currently under
construction are a three-story
base housing key facilities such
as state-of-the-art animal facilities
and innovative imaging technology
and an eight-story laboratory
tower including two floors for
imaging/radiation sciences. This
first tower, scheduled to open
in early 2008, will be dedicated
to cancer research, regenerative
medicine, neurogenetics,
molecular medicine and
neurosciences. The completed
complex will eventually include
second and third research towers.
Siting the building was essential
to the vision. It is close to
the University of Wisconsin
Hospital and Clinics, the soonto-be-opened American Family
Children’s Hospital, the School of
Medicine and Public Health, the
Waisman Center, the UW School
of Pharmacy and the William S.
Middleton Memorial Veterans
Hospital.
A growing number of major
academic medical centers have
been embracing the translational
research model. One obvious
benefit of translational research,
according to the National Institutes
of Health, is that basic scientists
give clinicians new tools for patient
care, and clinical researchers
are uniquely able to observe the
progress and effects of disease,
which often stimulates ideas
for additional basic science
investigations.
Taking advantage of the
translational research approach
means institutions are focusing
more of their resources on
teams of faculty researchers
who are well trained in inter- and
multidisciplinary investigation;
scientists who can project the
success of laboratory discoveries
to patient care and who are
excited about designing their
explorations around finding very
real and human solutions.
Institutions are creating
environments, such as the IRC,
to provide investigators with
the tools, the infrastructure and
research support necessary to
advance multidisciplinary research.
These resources not only facilitate
moving research breakthroughs
to clinical care, they also help
recruit and retain promising
faculty. Ultimately, the discoveries
emerging from facilities such
as the IRC will forever change
the way medicine is practiced,
opening unimagined opportunities
to improve human health and
well being.

regional
services
category
Starting in 1989, the University
of Wisconsin Paul P. Carbone
Comprehensive Cancer Center
developed a regional network to
advance cancer care and research
throughout Wisconsin and
northern Illinois.
Through these partnerships cancer
patients have access to the most
sophisticated treatment, clinical
trials, patient education material
and second opinions.
UW Cancer Center, Aspirus
Wausau Hospital, Wausau
Undertook a joint venture with UW
Cancer Center Riverview Hospital
in Wisconsin Rapids to offer area
patients unique opportunities for
coordinated radiation therapy care.
Wisconsin
UW Cancer Center, Riverview
Hospital, Wisconsin Rapids
Became the first cancer treatment
site in north-central Wisconsin to offer
the TomoTherapy HI-ART System of
image-guided intensity modulated
radiation therapy (IMRT). Also added a
new medical oncologist/hematologist,
Ron J. Kirschling, MD, FACP, to its
medical team.
These alliances mean University
of Wisconsin physicians bring
treatment advances generally
only found at academic medical
centers to patients in eight
regional communities.
By working together local and
university health care professionals
have a tremendous impact on the
patients and families they serve.
We celebrate their many significant
events from 2005 – 2006.
Was a major sponsor of the annual
Be a Friend 4 Life event, raising
awareness about the benefits of early
breast cancer screening.

Affinity’s Appleton facility held its first
cancer survivor’s day picnic in May
for survivors from the communities
surrounding both UW Cancer CenterAffinity Health System sites.
Wausau
Wisconsin Rapids
Appleton
Oshkosh
Manitowoc
Introduced Intensity-Modulated Radiation
Therapy (IMRT), an advanced form of highprecision radiotherapy that uses computer
controlled X-rays to deliver precise
radiation doses.
UW Cancer Center, Johnson Creek
Ended a successful first year with multiple awards
recognizing its patient-centered design. The new
facility is a partnership among Fort HealthCare,
Watertown Area Health Services and UW Health.

Center supports greater innovative
research initiatives, compassionate
cancer care and education
for the public and health care
professionals.

Your contribution also enables
our researchers to explore new
ideas, purchase new technology
for effective cancer research,
and develop better methods
of diagnosing, treating and
preventing cancer.
Funding for the Cancer Center’s
research, outreach and treatment
programs is more important than
ever. There are many ways to
support the UW Carbone Cancer
Center (UWCCC):
UNRESTRICTED GIFTS are truly
valuable because they provide
the flexibility needed for research
to move quickly in unexpected
directions and to swiftly pursue
promising clinical applications.
Unrestricted gifts also provide
resources to cover the costs of
critical services not entirely funded
by other support.
DESIGNATED GIFTS benefit
specific programs of your choice.
Funds may be designated for
initiatives in specific areas of
cancer research, patient care and
educational needs.
CORPORATE MATCHING GIFTS
are an excellent way to increase
your giving potential to the Center.
For more information, please

contact your human resources
office or our development office,

MEMORIAL AND HONOR
GIFTS allow contributors to
recognize loved ones in a special
way. Memorial gifts are made
in memory of family members,
friends or colleagues who have
passed away. Honor gifts show
someone in your life a measure of
affection, admiration or gratitude.
When such gifts are made, a
special notification is sent to the
family or individual.
MAJOR GIFTS are a specific
way for individuals, organizations,
