Our Vision
A First-in-kind Collaboration
The Philadelphia Coalition for a Cure (PC4C) is a first-in-kind, regional collaboration spanning across academic and healthcare systems for assessing, promoting and facilitating the use of leading technologies and data-driven research on behalf of patients diagnosed with brain and other cancers, stroke, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and other vascular diseases.
This consortium of medical institutions is dedicated to the ongoing development of a collaborative platform of basic research and clinical trials on behalf of patients affected by cancer across the Philadelphia tri-state area. PC4C was established in 2017 in recognition of the opportunities for advancing precision medicine approaches for cancer patients through integrative, biospecimen and data-driven discovery approaches that span across all ages and across cancers. Jay Storm, MD, Chief of the Division of Neurosurgery and D3b Co-director at CHOP, currently serves as PC4C Executive Chair.
