The IGSP is a research institute where clinical trials are an important part of translating research into clinical practice. Although many of our scientists perform research involving patients, we are not a health-care facility. The IGSP does not offer treatment. All clinical trials that include our research are done together with Duke University Medical Center and also often the Duke Comprehensive Cancer Center. Always discuss any questions about your treatment with your cancer doctor or surgeon.
Dr. Phillip Febbo leads the genomics research efforts in prostate cancer at the IGSP. If you have questions about genomics and prostate cancer genomics at the IGSP, call Dr. Febbo's research team at 919-681-2056.
