Medical Practice - Gainesville, Florida, United States
CancerPOP is a Precision Oncology Program that utilizes a combination of genomics and modeling software that is highly accurate in predicting clinical outcomes to provide answers for cancer patients. We help weigh treatment options in situations of cancer relapse, and have recognized new, effective therapies for cancer patients.Next-generation Sequencing: Next-generation sequencing of DNA is a new technology that rapidly reads the sequence of A's, T's, C's and G's in the DNA. Next-generation sequencing can be used to read a small list of genes suspected in causing a disease (also called a gene panel), the portions of DNA responsible for coding all proteins (also called the exome), or the entire DNA (also called the genome). Your CancerPOP team will help decide which kind of next-generation sequencing fits your needs.Pharmacogenetics Testing: Pharmacogenetics is the study of how our inherited genes influence the way we metabolize drugs. With genetic information, CancerPOP identifies drugs that may be affected by inherited genetics. If a drug is poorly metabolized, then the drug may cause severe side effects. This information would be helpful to know in advance.The genesis of CancerPOP came from our academic studies at the University of Florida with collaborators at University of California San Diego, Cleveland Clinic, Josep Carreras Leukemia Research Institute (Barcelona), Moffitt Cancer Center and many other academic medical centers. Our work has been selected for national presentations and publications in peer-reviewed medical journals. Our sequence of technologies has won research prizes, including a Harvard Business School Precision Medicine Innovation prize.CancerPOP offers two services to patients, caregivers and oncologists:CancerPOP COMPLETE - Gene Testing Needed1.
