Meet Marina, 60, Geelong.

Diagnosed with three types of breast cancer since 2013.

"Genomic profiling can tell you which treatment is the right one. You haven't got anything to lose and you've got everything to gain."

Marina’s journey changed when comprehensive genomic profiling revealed what made her cancer unique — opening the door to personalised, matched therapy.

💡 Understanding what drives a cancer can change everything.

When Emma Sinclair from Forbes, NSW, underwent comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) through Omico’s national program, her doctor identified a treatment that has kept her brain tumour stable for more than a year.

This ABC News story shows the power of understanding each cancer’s unique features — and how matching the right treatment to the right person can lead to better outcomes and more options.

It’s why Omico is working to make precision oncology a standard part of cancer care for all Australians — most urgently for those with incurable cancers — no matter where they live.

🙏 Thank you to Associate Professor Rob Zielinski, Emma and Toni for sharing their story — and to the clinicians, researchers and supporters helping more Australians know their options.

Meet Jason, 58, Mansfield.

Father and grandfather, diagnosed with stage 4 oesophageal cancer in 2024.

"Eight months was the mark of expiry at the time."

Through comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP), Jason discovered treatment options matched to his specific cancer — proof that knowing your options can change what’s possible, especially important for those with advanced cancers.

“What more can we do?” 💬 — Shelley Craft

In her podcast chat with Professor David Thomas, this question captured what many of us feel: the science is here, breakthroughs are already extending or saving lives — but access is still limited.

David’s answer? Change comes when precision oncology becomes standard care, so every Australian facing cancer can benefit, not just a lucky few. Omico is working towards this.

Here’s how you can play a part:
👉Ask your oncologist about comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) and whether Omico’s Cancer Screening Program (CaSP) could be suitable for you.
👉Consider clinical trials — they’re how new precision treatments reach patients faster.
👉Stay informed — start by listening to the full episode – link below
👉Use your voice — share the episode and advocate for mainstreaming precision oncology.

🎧 The Aging Project Podcast with Shelley Craft - The Future of Cancer Care Has Arrived with Professor David Thomas

From one-size-fits-all to deeply personal. Professor David Thomas explains how science is transforming cancer care:
*“We’ve moved from toxic drugs that harmed healthy cells, to targeted treatments that are six times as effective as in the 1990s.
Cancer isn’t one disease. Each tumour has its own circuitry — and science now allows us to see those differences and act on them. That’s why treatments are becoming more precise, more personal, and more effective.”

🧡 Thank you Shelley Craft, for helping more Australians understand the advances and new options in cancer care.

This , we acknowledge the vital role clinical trials play in advancing treatment and improving outcomes for people facing a cancer diagnosis.

Through , our national network of clinicians and trial sites is helping expand access to clinical trials — including in rural and remote communities — giving patients more treatment options when they need them most.

Clinical trials open the door to innovative treatments that are not yet widely available, offering people living with cancer the chance to benefit from the very latest advances in science.

“Our team supports researchers and companies in bringing innovative treatments to Australia. Access can be especially difficult for those in regional, rural, and remote areas — which is why Omico is committed to expanding our clinical trial network across both metropolitan and rural communities.”
— Lucille Sebastian, National Clinical Trial Network Manager, Omico

Thanks to our many partners, more pathways are opening to life-changing treatment options.

❓ If my CGP results don’t match me to a trial or treatment right now, will Omico let me know if new options become available?

As a CaSP participant, your details stay in our database. If a clinical trial with a suitable precision treatment that may be relevant for you opens in Australia, Omico will notify your referring doctor so they can discuss this option with you.

We encourage you to continue the conversation with your treating team — they’ll be best placed to explore whether any additional access pathways may become available, or to keep you informed of other emerging options.
