A strategic alliance with Scottsdale Healthcare (SHC) provides a direct clinical research site for TGen through the Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center (VGPCC) Clinical Trials.
Led by Dr. Daniel Von Hoff, TGen's Physician-in-Chief, the clinical site offers patients the latest in clinical trial options for ACC.
About the VGPCC Clinical Trials at SHC
VTGen/VGPCC Clinical Trials clinicians focus on clinical trials with targeted agents and genomics-based individualized therapy. The TGen/VGPCC Clinical Trials, with an initial focus on cancer, allows the unique opportunity for TGen to transition its laboratory-based research to patient care centered on individualized therapy.
For example, a study of OSI-906 in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Adrenocortical Carcinoma (GALACCTIC)is an orally available drug that blocks the chemical pathway that otherwise allows the ACC tumors to grow out of control. OSI-906 is expected to have minimal impact on the healthy tissue of the adrenal glands or their normal function. This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
