Proton Therapy Australia is committed to bringing world-class cancer care to Sydney through the development of a proton therapy centre in Alexandria. This facility aligns with the Government’s vision for multiple proton centres across the country and will be funded entirely by private capital.

More than 9,000 Australians each year could benefit from proton therapy. Even if the SAHMRI/Bragg Centre proceeds, which we hope will be the case, demand will require both Adelaide and Sydney facilities to ensure patients are treated at home rather than overseas. It is essential that children and adults with the 13 cancers already approved by MSAC — and with further indications such as left-sided breast, oesophageal, and head and neck cancers now in the pipeline — have timely access to care in Australia.

“We’ve got a lot of work to do collectively to make our economy more productive” - Treasurer Jim Chalmers Australian Productivity Summit August 2025.
“This data shows that the much needed ‘handover’ from the public to private sector as our primary engine of growth has yet to properly occur.”

With final MBS approval of the 13 indications already endorsed by MSAC, Proton Therapy Australia’s Sydney centre can move ahead immediately. We invite Government, clinicians, and investors to work with us to ensure Australians have timely access to this vital treatment, delivered through a sustainable partnership between private capital and public health priorities.

Excellent article by Terry Pane in the AFR this morning. He's certainly shone a light on the frustrating situation in Adelaide the failed investment and the disappointment for all the patients who need proton therapy. It's going to take some time to sort out.
In the meantime, we continue to work on delivering the PTA clinic by end of 2028.

Teddy Marchmont had to go to Florida, and find $360,000, for the best treatment for his brain tumour while a purpose-built bunker sits empty in Adelaide. What’s going on?

A brilliant initiative. Proton Therapy Australia will most certainly benefit from participation.

A fantastic initiative and one in which the Proton Therapy Australia team will participate. Australia is a long way from many of the hospitals and clinics that offer proton Therapy and for us to be included in a network such as this will be of immense value. For the clinical folk as well as the pati...
