Some stories are hard to tell — and even harder to relive.

For International , we’re celebrating eight people living with incurable cancer who joined with us, revisited deeply personal moments, and shared what molecular profiling and treatment matching meant for them. Real, lived experience.

❤️ Their courage helps others across Australia understand their options when cancer feels overwhelming.
🙏 To Emma, Matthew, Emily, Heidi, Beth, Caitlin, Marina and Jason—thank you for your candour, strength and generosity.

When Jason was first diagnosed with an incurable cancer, his oncologist referred him to Omico to have comprehensive genomic testing (CGP).

CGP provides extra information about a person’s cancer, including the specific features making it grow. This can help identify treatment options that precisely target these features. For Jason, that clearer picture mattered.

“CGP helps our understanding, and it helped me to treat Jason going forward.” – Dr Caroline Lum

At the launch of Omico’s Impact Report, the Health Minister, Hon. Mark Butler MP, highlighted both the urgency and the opportunity ahead:
💬“This is a really important piece of work…
It’s got so much potential — for the country, and for countless individual lives like Emily’s.”

His words reflect exactly why this work matters. The foundation for precision oncology is now in place and the opportunity to make it mainstream - accessible to Australians who need it - is right in front of us.

🎧 Two powerful podcasts. One shared message: knowledge brings hope.

From Omico’s podcast to Podcast with Shelley Craft, the focus is clear — helping Australians better understand what’s possible in cancer care today.

Our 8 episode podcast series “Cancer Meets Its Match” is here to help you understand how comprehensive genomic profiling and precision oncology can be accessed and make a difference for Australians facing hard-to-treat cancers.

🎙 Hosted by Dr Ginni Mansberg you can find the full series here:

Professor David Thomas shared powerful evidence at the launch of Omico’s Impact Report.
“Over almost a decade, more than two-thirds of the Australians we serve have had actionable biomarkers identified.”

The progress is clear:
60% in 2016 → 69% on average across the decade → 85% today.

As David said: “That’s 5 in 6 people who stand to benefit from molecular profiling today.”

This is why mainstreaming precision oncology matters.

Australians can’t wait.

“Regardless of what cancer stage you are at, speak to your oncologist about comprehensive genomic testing.”

Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) gave Marina and her oncologist the crucial information needed to understand her challenging cancer and how to treat it.

It’s a conversation worth having early — particularly for people with advanced, incurable or poor-prognosis cancers. Your oncologist can help you understand how and when CGP might help guide your treatment options.

At the launch of Omico’s Impact Report, Emily Lahey shared a message that resonated with everyone — including the Hon. Minister Mark Butler, MP.

💬“I stand here today because I had the opportunity to benefit from genomic testing and targeted therapy… My hope is that my story becomes the rule and not the exception.”

Emily’s story shows why mainstreaming precision oncology is so important.

Australians can’t wait.

At the launch of Omico’s Impact Report, our new Chair, Richard Vines, acknowledged what has been built:
💬“About 10 years ago I was talking to David about his vision for Omico… I said to him that if you can do this, then what you would have created is a national treasure for this country. And he has.”

A powerful reminder of how far this vision has come to accelerate equitable access to precision oncology, and what’s now possible for Australians facing cancer.

After our Impact Report launch, Dr Mike Freelander MP gave a speech in Parliament recognising Omico’s work.

He spoke warmly about our founder:
“Professor David Thomas is a rockstar in the medical world.”

He also underscored how precision oncology is already transforming care:
💬“Omico is really changing lives of many people.”
💬“We have cutting-edge genomic technologies that are turning into tangible therapeutic advancements for Australians with challenging cancers, improving outcomes across the board.”

We’re grateful to Dr Freelander for highlighting Omico’s impact — and the potential ahead.

When Jason came to Caroline (his oncologist) and asked how they were going to fight his cancer, she didn't hesitate in recommending comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP).

"We need to do CGP to understand your cancer...(and) what can we offer you that's matched to your type of cancer."

Current data from our Cancer Screening Program (CaSP), show that CGP identifies a biomarker with a matched therapy or clinical trial in around 85% of participants — opening the door to personalised options, as it did for Jason.
