Hoosier Oncology Group joined forces with Indiana University and other research centers in the United States, Canada and Peru to establish the "Center of Excellence for Individualization of Therapy for Breast Cancer." Combining emerging technologies with existing ones, the project studies therapeutic individualization - matching the right patient to the right drug - for women with advanced breast cancer. George W. Sledge Jr., M.D., a clinical investigator with HOG and IU, oversees the project that was funded by a five-year, $10 million federal grant. Through individualized treatments, the project's goal is to increase effectiveness and lessen toxicity of treatments for women with advanced breast cancer.
