E. Donnall Thomas E. Donnall Thomas never expected to win the Nobel Prize for physiology or medicine. The prize usually goes to scientists doing basic research with test tubes, not doctors doing hands-on clinical research with patients. As a member of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and a professor of medicine at the UW, he pioneered bone marrow transplantation. In 1956 he was the first to show that marrow could be safely infused into a human patient. Later he was the first to treat acute leukemia patients with marrow transplantation. When the phone rang at 2 a.m. in October 1990, he thought "a fellow at the `Hutch' was playing a practical joke on me." Eventually, though, the reporter from New York convinced Thomas that he'd won the prize and got him to answer a slew of questions about bone marrow transplantation. "When he hung up, I really lit into him," says Dottie Thomas, his wife and lab technician "since the beginning of time" (her words). "I said, `What are you doing, giving an interview at 2 a.m.?' " He replied: "Well, this reporter said I won the Nobel Prize."

March 15 ~  Fabric of Life's Work Cancer Patient's Workbook "It is a l w a y s difficult to identify the m a n y threads that make up the f a b r i c of a life's work." ~ E. Donnall Thomas Everywhere, thousands of leukemia patients have a second chance at life because of 40 years of dedicated bone marrow research by Dr. E. Donnall Thomas (1920-). Born on this day in Texas, Dr. Thomas is a hero in humanity's relentless quest to find a cure for cancer Leukemia, once almost always fatal, is curable today. Over 50% survive because of discoveries in bone marrow transplantation. Healthy marrow injected into the bloodstream allows patients with marrow destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation to produce new cells. A miracle! Thomas first pursued his research while in medical school. In 1956, he successfully transplanted bone marrow between a leukemic patient and his identical twin, then in 1969 between relatives who were not identical twins. From there, he tried unrelated donor matches. Thomas' quest was not always easy because of the medical community's widespread skepticism. "Back then, we didn't know anything about histocompatibility (tissue typing)," Thomas explained. Building blocks to success included improved tissuing techniques and the development of more sophisticated antibiotics to control transplant infections.

Thomas, Donnall E. My father, Dr. Edward E. Thomas was born in 1870 and moved to Texas with his family in a covered wagon in 1874. He grew up in frontier Texas and, with almost no formal schooling went to the University of Louisville, Kentucky, where he received his M. D. His first wife died of tuberculosis, and I was the only child of his second wife. He was 50 years old when I was born on March 15, 1920. He was a solo general practitioner in our small Texas village. Thus, together we span the time from horse and buggy house calls to modern high-tech medicine. My high school class consisted of about 15 people. I was not an outstanding student even in this small group. I entered the University of Texas in Austin in 1937. In my first semester I made only B grades, but as time went on and the courses became more difficult and challenging I began to enjoy the studies, mainly in chemistry and chemical engineering. I received a B. A. in 1941 and an M. A. in 1943. During my undergraduate years at the end of the depression money was almost non-existent so I worked at a number of odd jobs. One of the jobs was waiting tables at a girls' dormitory. One January morning it snowed, a rare event in Texas. As I emerged from the girls' dormitory, an attractive young woman hit me in the face with a snow ball. I naturally had to catch her and avenge the insult to my male ego. Thus, I meet Dorothy Martin, the Dottie who has participated in all my endeavors up to the present time. We have 3 children, Don Jr. who practices internal medicine in Montana, Jeffrey who is in business in Seattle and Elaine who is a Fellow in infectious diseases at the University of Washington. We have eight grandchildren.

91. Bone Marrow Grafting: A Story Of Man And Dog From Bone Marrow TransplantationPast, Present and Future, E.DonnallThomas, nobel Lecture, Dec. 8, 1990, reprinted from Les Prix http://www.washington.edu/research/pathbreakers/1955a.html

Bone Marrow Grafting: "A Story of Man and Dog" It was in the summer of 1955 that E. Donnall Thomas and a colleague began to discuss the possibility of bone marrow grafting in patients. The setting was Cooperstown, N.Y., site of the Mary Imogene Bassett Hospital where Thomas worked. Their conversations took place sometimes in the lab, sometimes while riding horses around the hills of Cooperstown. These conversations were the beginning of a career that would lead him to the UW School of Medicine and would culminate in his receiving the Nobel Prize in 1990 for developing bone marrow grafting techniques that today have saved thousands of lives. In that summer of '55, it seemed to Thomas that marrow transplantation might successfully be performed in human patients who had malignant disease, especially leukemiapatients whose immune systems were depressed because of the disease and the effects of radiation treatment. Thomas and colleagues decided to proceed cautiously with clinical experiments while also initiating animal studies. In a paper published in 1957, Thomas reported that fairly large amounts of specially prepared marrow could be given intravenously without ill effect to the patient. In that paper the team envisioned potential applications of marrow grafts for treating not only bone marrow diseases, but also victims of radiation accidents, a chilling premonition of the tragic events of the Chernobyl accident in the former Soviet Union:

Hartwell and Paul Ramsey, UW vice president for medical affairs and dean of the UW School of Medicine, after the news conference. 2001 Nobel Prize awarded to Lee Hartwell, Director of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center This morning the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, announced that Lee Hartwell, president and director of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center , has won the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work in yeast genetics. He shares the honor with Paul Nurse and Timothy Hunt, both of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund in London. "Those who know Lee Hartwell and his work have long hoped that this day would come," said Paul G. Ramsey, UW vice president for medical affairs and dean of the School of Medicine. "In the finest tradition of the Nobel Prize, his contributions to cancer research have enabled others to go on and make countless advances of their own. All of us at the University of Washington Academic Medical Center celebrate this richly deserved recognition of a truly world-class bioscientist who is also a fine colleague and friend."
