Get to Know Dr. Charles Staley
Surgical oncologist Dr. Charles Staley specializes in the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies, including malignant mesothelioma cancer.
At the Winship Cancer Institute at Emory University, Staley also serves as director for the hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy program, which has played a key role in advancing peritoneal mesothelioma treatment for many patients with the cancer.
Staley often uses the procedure, also known as HIPEC, in combination with cytoreductive surgery for several abdominal cancers. This has led to survival rates of three to 10 years and beyond.
He is leader of the surgical oncology team and also serves as the chief quality officer. For many years he has tracked and improved patient services at Winship.
Staley has been with the Emory University School of Medicine since 1995, after completing his surgical oncology fellowship at the prestigious MD Anderson Cancer Center.
His research has focused on translational studies and gastrointestinal cancers. He has investigated gene therapy, radiofrequency ablation with intra-arterial chemotherapy and the use of nanotechnology.
