Dr. Gerardo Rosati is a distinguished Italian medical oncologist whose career reflects over three decades of sustained clinical practice, research leadership, and commitment to advancing evidence-based cancer care. Laureato con lode all’Università “Federico II” di Napoli e successivamente specializzato in Oncologia presso la Seconda Università di Napoli, ha sviluppato precocemente un interesse scientifico per i markers tumorali e per l’innovazione terapeutica nei tumori solidi. La sua formazione è stata arricchita da numerose borse di studio FIRC, ESO e Fondazione Lina Belli, che gli hanno consentito di partecipare a corsi avanzati internazionali su colon-retto, neuro-oncologia, recidive ginecologiche, terapia antalgica e strategie emergenti in oncologia medica. Dal 1998 opera stabilmente presso l’U.O. di Oncologia Medica dell’Azienda Ospedaliera “S. Carlo” di Potenza, dove ha assunto ruoli via via più qualificati fino alla responsabilità del coordinamento dell’attività di ricerca clinica. La sua attività come sperimentatore in oltre cento studi clinici di fase I–III e in numerosi progetti osservazionali riguarda chemioterapie innovative, farmaci biologici, anti-EGFR, anti-angiogenici, immunoterapia, tossicità correlate ai trattamenti e biomarcatori predittivi. Ha inoltre svolto un’intensa attività di revisione scientifica per riviste internazionali e per enti accademici e sanitari nazionali, contribuendo al miglioramento della qualità metodologica della ricerca oncologica. Membro attivo di AIOM, ESMO ed ESO College, promuove l’integrazione tra clinica, ricerca e formazione, con un impatto significativo sui percorsi assistenziali nei tumori gastrointestinali e in altre neoplasie solide. His academic influence is reflected in 2,813 citations, 123 documents, and an h-index of 27, underscoring his meaningful contributions to contemporary clinical oncology.
