Dr Konstantinos Kamposioras
Consultant Medical Oncologist
MD, FRCP, PhD
"The atmosphere is so supportive with the entire staff committed to each patient's treatment."
I have worked as a medical oncology consultant since 2010, specialising in gastrointestinal malignancies since 2013. My expertise lies in the oncological management of patients with colorectal cancer, including the administration of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. I am committed to working alongside my patients and the wider multidisciplinary team to deliver high-quality, patient-centred care.
I am a substantive consultant medical oncologist at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust. I am a core member of the colorectal cancer multidisciplinary team (MDT) for the south-east sector of Greater Manchester and a member of the metastatic hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) and peritoneal MDT for Greater Manchester. I am also the acute oncology lead for Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust.
My main research interests lie in clinical and translational research, real-world data and service improvement. In 2010, I was awarded the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) Translational Research Fellowship, which led to a PhD. I also hold a master’s degree in public health from the University of Manchester. I am a reviewer for oncology journals and have authored or co-authored over 100 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters.
Throughout my career, I have chaired and participated in various national and international committees. I was the Clinical Lead for Acute Oncology in Greater Manchester and the former Chair of the ESMO Working Group.
I am currently a member of the ESMO Resilience Task Force, the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Gastrointestinal Cancer Group and the European Commission Initiative on Colorectal Cancer.
I am a strong advocate of improving patient care through professional development and putting individuals at the heart of decision-making processes.
In addition to my clinical work, I am also proud to Chair the Oncology Pro Working Group (OPWG) of the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) and supervise the quality of ESMO's online educational resources. I have been a member of various national and international committees. I am a member of ESMO Gastro-Intestinal Tumours faculty group and more recently, as a member of the ESMO Resilience Task Force, we have developed an extensive portfolio to evaluate wellbeing and offer support to oncology professionals both Nationally and Internationally. I was proud to lead the Feasibility study on cancer registration in Greece through the EUROCHIP-2 programme and a core member of the PanHellenic Association for Continual Medical Research.
I am first name author and co-author in more than 60 articles in papers or chapters in peer review journals/books. I am a reviewer for oncology journals.
