About Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
For more than 60 years, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has had one goal: to reduce the suffering
caused by cancer through advanced clinical care and cutting-edge scientific research. As a principal
teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School, we are able to attract many of the best and brightest
physicians in the world to pursue this mission.
At Dana-Farber, we are committed to a multidisciplinary, compassionate, and collaborative model of care
that truly puts patients and their families at the center of all we do. We work in teams organized around
combating specific types of cancer, and patients have easy and direct access to the full range of specialists
they may need.
Our scientific research is focused on understanding the biology of cancer cells in order to develop more
effective therapies that improve patient outcomes. Our lab scientists and clinicians collaborate closely to
quickly translate findings from the lab into therapies that can be delivered to patients in our clinics.
Dana-Farber is a founding member of the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC), a NCIdesignated Comprehensive Cancer Center. DF/HCC harnesses the expertise and resources of DanaFarber and six other Harvard-affiliated hospitals and research institutions to conduct research focused on
improving the understanding and treatment of cancer. Dana-Farber is also a founding member of the
National Comprehensive Cancer Network, an alliance of the world’s leading cancer centers, working
together to develop cancer treatment guidelines and research that improves the quality and effectiveness
of cancer care. In addition, Dana-Farber has earned “Magnet” status, recognizing the Institute’s highquality patient care, nursing excellence, and innovations in professional nursing practice.

Gastrointestinal Cancer
The Gastrointestinal Cancer Center provides advanced, integrated care for patients diagnosed with or at risk for colorectal, pancreatic, stomach,
liver, gallbladder, bile duct, and esophageal cancers, as well as neuroendocrine and carcinoid tumors. Patients are cared for by a multidisciplinary
team of specialists who use advanced, innovative techniques to diagnose and treat gastrointestinal malignancies.
Our team is a leader in delivering a personalized treatment approach for many gastrointestinal malignancies. All colorectal cancers are tested for
KRAS and BRAF mutations, with therapy tailored according to the tumor genotype. In addition, treatment for patients with esophageal and gastric
cancers is provided based on each patient’s individual HER2 amplification.
The Center offers genetic counseling and testing to patients with a family history of gastrointestinal cancers. This program also conducts research to
understand the genetic causes of cancer and to evaluate new diagnostic tests for early detection, novel endoscopic techniques, and new medical
therapies to prevent gastrointestinal cancers.
The clinical investigators in the Center conduct basic and translational research to develop more effective treatment techniques for patients with
gastrointestinal cancers, and understand the biology of gastrointestinal malignancies.

Thoracic Oncology
The Lowe Center for Thoracic Oncology provides expert care for patients with lung cancer, malignant mesothelioma, mediastinal and thymic
tumors, and metastatic cancers to the chest. Because most patients require therapy that includes a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and
surgery, care is coordinated among a specialized team that includes thoracic surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pulmonologists,
radiologists, pathologists, nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists, dieticians and nutritionists, and social workers. We perform routine
genomic testing of tumors from all patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer using the latest next generation sequencing methods to
evaluate for changes in over 300 genes. We offer a wide variety of therapeutic approaches and clinical trials of novel therapies based on the genomic
makeup of the individual patient’s cancer.
In addition to providing superior standard treatment options, the thoracic oncology team is involved in clinical and laboratory research to identify
innovative treatment strategies for thoracic malignancies. Our physicians are also leaders in national cooperative group studies through the Alliance
for Clinical Trials in Oncology. As a result of this cutting-edge research, most patients will be offered the opportunity to participate in a clinical
trial as one of their treatment options.
