Amita Health partnership to benefit cancer patients

CHICAGO - Amita Health announced a partnership with the Syapse Learning Health Network to further its commitment to precision medicine in cancer care.

Through this multiyear collaboration, the Amita Health Cancer Institute and Syapse have partnered to share real-world data across Amita Health's 33 oncology sites-of-care and the Syapse Learning Health Network to facilitate evidence-based learning and program benchmarking. It will also enable cancer patients to access novel targeted therapies through clinical trials, the company said.

"We believe that the latest, most advanced technology, including increased access to clinical trials and advanced therapeutics, should be offered close to home to make patients' cancer care as easy and successful as possible." said Dr. Stuart Marcus, chief clinical officer for Amita Health in Chicago.
