About Dr. Subbiah
Cancer remains a disease that disproportionately affects older people. Despite accounting for the greatest proportion of those with cancer, older patients represent a significantly lower proportion of patients included in clinical trials. The care of older adults with cancers calls for a substantial understanding of the intricacies of supportive care and geriatrics, oncology as well as phase I/II clinical trial design. Dr. Subbiah is uniquely qualified for this role, having acquired this essential knowledge through her training at MD Anderson first as a Fellow in the Department of Investigational Cancer Therapeutics (A Phase I Program), then in Medical Oncology in the Division of Cancer Medicine and most recently in Department of Palliative, Rehabilitation, and Integrative Medicine. Dr. Subbiah has a thorough understanding of phase I and II clinical trial design, novel therapeutics including immunotherapy and targeted therapies, fundamentals of medical oncology practice and symptom management. With this robust foundation, she cultivates a clinical practice and research focus on symptom management in all patients with particular emphasis on the older adults.
Present Title & Affiliation
Primary Appointment
Assistant Professor, Department of Palliative Care and Rehabilitation Medicine, Division of Cancer Medicine, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX
Clinical Interests
In line with her clinical role as a symptom management physician and oncologist in the Department of Palliative Care, Dr. Subbiah is equally committed academically to advancing the evidence base for comprehensive holistic care of persons with advanced cancers and their caregivers. Her research places a particular emphasis on improving clinical trial participation among all patients especially those aged 65 years and above and adolescent/young adults (AYA), two populations who remain underrepresented in clinical trials. This vision includes reassessment of inclusion criteria on clinical trials, development of the ideal patient performance assessment tools, and dissemination of best practices to incorporate Supportive Care and Palliative Care early in the disease course to optimize symptoms prior to consideration of and during clinical trial enrollment.
