Professional background

Shirley D'Sa, MD, FRCP, FRCPath, is a consultant haematologist and clinical lead for the UCLH Centre for Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia (WM) and Associated Disorders, and honorary associate professor at the UCL Cancer Institute. She is also haematological lead in the joint neurohaematology service at the National Hospital for Neurology, Queen Square, London.

Specialties

Research interests

Dr D’Sa has a background in laboratory research into the recovery of immune function following allogeneic stem cell transplantation in myeloma patients.

  • UK Chief Investigator on a number of clinical trials in the field of Waldenström’s macroglobulinaemia and cold agglutinin disease including Phase I, II and II trials of novel therapies.
  • Co-investigator in the UCL/UCLH Biobank for Studying Health and Disease: biobanking samples from patients with Waldenström’s and IgM-related conditions
  • Co-investigator on NCI Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of Lymphoid Malignancies and Related Disorders in collaboration with Dr Mary McMaster, Captain, US Public Health Service, Clinical Genetics Branch, Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute
  • Chief Investigator and Data Custodian, Rory Morrison Registry: approved national clinical registry for Waldenström’s and Related Conditions which has over 1,100 patients’ data entered to date from 18 UK centres.

Dr D’Sa has worked with patients and colleagues to set up an not-for-profit organisation called WMUK (www.wmuk.org.uk), which seeks to bring health professionals and patients closer together to challenge the barriers faced by patients with Waldenström’s Macroglobulinaemia, and is an investigator on several clinical trials.
