Welcome

Our Precision Care Clinic integrates genomic research into routine cancer care. This means we incorporate molecular genetic interpretation and insights into the care pathways for patients facing complex forms of cancer.

Based at Prince of Wales Hospital, our data-driven clinic is informed by biomedical, patient and health services research. We continuously refine our approach based on ongoing evidence-driven insights.

Our mission

Our mission is to provide an evidence-driven integrated advisory precision care service, enabling peer discussion and shared decision making for timely individualised oncology and cancer genomics patient care.

Our vision

Making precision care routine… 

We envision a future where the unique advantages of our precision care model will compel this service to become an integral part of every Australian cancer care centre.

Services

Guided by evolving research, we provide a precision oncology service that is clinically guided and accessible to healthcare professionals and cancer patients across Australia. We achieve this by:

  • Integrating joint familial and medical oncology molecular MDTs and consultations into existing care pathways. 
  • Providing a formal structure for evidence-based peer discussion of molecular test findings, to enable shared decision making in relation to diagnosis, therapeutics, risk management, and prevention.  
  • Facilitating review and follow-up of potential implications for blood relatives.
  • Facilitating linkage of clinical and translational research opportunities, including clinical trials.
  • Recommending pathways for further molecular testing, including germline testing, integrated with their current cancer care. 
  • Facilitating peer-based support for therapy decisions related to biomarker and genetic testing.  
  • Providing a precision medicine conduit for rare genetic disorders where targeted therapy may be appropriate.
