CRDF - Cardiff Oncology announces departure of medical chief
Cardiff Oncology (NASDAQ:CRDF) shares are trading lower in the post-market Tuesday after the cancer-focused biotech announced that its chief medical officer (CMO) Katherine L. Ruffner would leave the company effective Apr. 22 to pursue a new opportunity. However, Dr. Ruffner has agreed to support the company’s operations temporarily, Cardiff Oncology (CRDF) said, adding that Sandra L. Silberman, a former chief medical advisor to the company, will serve as senior medical advisor on an interim basis. Dr. Silberman, who currently functions as the chief medical officer for Moleculin Biotech and CNS Pharmaceuticals, will therefore oversee the clinical trials and clinical operations team, Cardiff Oncology (CRDF) said. "On behalf of the entire Cardiff Oncology team, I would like to thank Katherine for her contributions to the Company and wish her well in her next endeavor," Chief Executive Mark Erlander remarked.
