About

Dr. S. Cammelli is a radiation oncologist whose research focuses on stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for challenging tumor sites, with a particular emphasis on symptom palliation and expanding treatment frontiers. Her major contributions include demonstrating the efficacy of SBRT in managing pain for locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma (LAPC), a disease with a notoriously poor prognosis. Her 2018 systematic review on this topic, which has garnered 64 citations, established SBRT as a viable tool for improving quality of life by reducing cancer-related pain, moving beyond purely survival-focused endpoints. More recently, Dr. Cammelli has ventured into the highly sensitive field of pediatric oncology, authoring a 2025 narrative review on the use of the CyberKnife robotic radiosurgery system in children. This work addresses the critical challenge of delivering precise, conformal radiation to minimize long-term toxicity in developing tissues. By bridging the gap between advanced technology and vulnerable patient populations, Dr. Cammelli’s research is shaping safer, more effective radiotherapy protocols for both adults and children.
