Northwell Health Launches Cutting-Edge Cancer Research Facility

Northwell Health and the START Center for Cancer Research have launched a new $5.7 million early-phase cancer clinical trial center on Long Island, New York. This marks START's inaugural site in the state, expanding its global network of early-phase cancer trial facilities.

The facility, located in Lake Success, is equipped with advanced research and patient care amenities, including six private exam rooms, 14 infusion bays, and a dedicated pharmacokinetic lab. It aims to provide patients with direct access to novel cancer treatments close to home.

This initiative builds on a strategic alliance formed last year, with plans for a second Northwell-START Center in Manhattan expected to open in 2027. The collaboration signifies a commitment to advancing cancer research and treatment accessibility.
