Sr. Research Nurse - Baltimore, United States - InsideHigherEd
Description
The Department of Medicine, Division of Rheumatology is seeking a Sr. Research Nurse, ideally having certification as an Oncology Certified Nurse (OCN) and/or Blood and Marrow Transplant Certified Nurse (BMTCN), with prior work experience in adoptive cellular therapy and/or bone marrow transplantation to support early-phase clinical trials using CAR-T cells, other engineered cellular therapies, and antibody-based therapies for the treatment of patients with various severe autoimmune and rheumatic diseases. This position will expand the capabilities for cellular therapies at Johns Hopkins Hospital for non-oncological indications and will include work in the Clinical Research Units at Johns Hopkins Hospital, including the Inpatient and Outpatient Clinical Research Units on Nelson 5 and Blalock 3.
Diagnoses of patients treated will include patients with rheumatic and autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), autoimmune muscle disease/myositis, scleroderma, vasculitis, Sjgren's disease, and other organ-specific autoimmune diseases that receive care at the different Centers of Excellence at Johns Hopkins.
Nurses will attend training by our experienced cell therapy nurses in oncology to administer lymphodepletion therapy (e.g., cyclophosphamide, fludarabine) as well as cell therapy and antibody products, will be trained in the recognition and management of cytokine-related adverse events (e.g., CRS, ICANS, cytopenia), and in the care of patients with rheumatic disease in general. There are extensive opportunities for growth and development in this new, and rapidly growing space of cell therapy for autoimmune diseases through continued education opportunities and lectures in the Division of Rheumatology and oncology. The position will combine the dedicated care of patients that are enrolled in clinical trials throughout their treatment journey (inpatient and outpatient), the coordination of research trial activities (screening of patients, supporting consent, education and training of trial participants) in a multidisciplinary team of rheumatologists, nephrologists, and oncologists and other sub-specialists.
