Future Healthcare
Icon’s Group Director of Molecular Oncology, Julie Crouch says participating in research is an exciting step forward in our theranostics capabilities.
“Molecular oncology is seeing significant advances, and we’ve had a real positive start to our theranostics program at North Lakes which is giving people greater access to this treatment,” said Julie.
“We’re now looking forward to contributing to clinical trials that have the aim of transforming this cutting-edge treatment and providing new lines of therapies to not only people in Queensland, but nationally and into Singapore,” said Julie.
Excellence in Research
The theranostics research program is led by Icon Group Executive Manager, Sophie Mepham, alongside Julie Crouch, Clinical Director for Molecular Imaging and Nuclear Oncology (Asia Pacific), Dr Nat Lenzo, and Nuclear Medicine Physician, A/Prof David Macfarlane.
The program is scheduled to open its first trials at Icon Cancer Centre North Lakes and Icon Cancer Centre Kurralta Park in Adelaide later this year, locally led by Clinical Research Coordinator Team Lead, Jesse Peet (North Lakes) and State Research Coordinator Manager, Sue Yeend (Adelaide).
“At Icon, we’re fortunate to have highly experienced and internationally recognised molecular oncology specialists and a centralised research team pushing forward advancements in precision medicine,” said Julie.
“Our global integrated network will allow for the safe and efficient rollout of theranostics research which we intend to introduce to Singapore next year and into the United Kingdom in the future.” Learn more about research at Icon.
