There are more than 18 million cancer survivors in the United States. And over the next decade, that number is expected to reach 22.5 million.
Most of us know someone who has battled cancer and won. These are the victories that fuel our renowned research teams at the Comprehensive Cancer Center and its multiple Centers of Excellence. Our team is dedicated to unlocking new discoveries that will give even more patients the best chance for beating cancer.
Our team is:
- Focusing on new drug combinations to fight incurable lung cancer.
- Using genomic analysis to select treatments that target the specific genetic make-up of brain tumors, improving life expectancy.
- Harvesting a patient’s immune cells and then using them to seek and destroy their prostate cancer.
- Offering hundreds of clinical trials with the goal of finding better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer.
- Collaborating to answer complex questions that will one day lead to promising new treatments.
The research we are doing today allows us to take our most promising discoveries from the laboratory to our patients’ bedsides and beyond. We are making a difference in the fight against cancer.
