Precision Oncology Tumor Board
The Precision Oncology Tumor Board (POTB) extends the reach and resources of the University of Illinois Cancer Center throughout Illinois and regionally. Our experts review cases from internal and outside clinicians to discuss personalized treatment options based on a patient’s tumor biomarkers. The POTB is supported by the Cancer Center, the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) and UI Health.
The POTB complements traditional oncology tumor boards and aids clinicians in making clinical care decisions based on the latest research. Specializing in precision oncology tests like genomic testing with NGS and ctDNA, our POTB team generates a personalized Precision Oncology Report with potential treatment options, including clinical trials, after reviewing a patient’s case.
The POTB meets on the third Thursday of each month, from 3 – 4 p.m. This meeting is not open to the public. If you want to participate in the Precision Oncology Tumor Board or have a case to present for discussion, please email Ryan Nguyen, DO.
