Whether you're seeking care, conducting research, exploring collaboration, or supporting our mission, discover how Case Comprehensive Cancer Center (Case CCC) advances progress against cancer through the power of partnership.

Case CCC is one of just 57 National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer centers in the nation—and the only one that unites the research and clinical expertise of University Hospitals, Cleveland Clinic, and Case Western Reserve University in a single collaborative consortium.

By bringing together two internationally recognized healthcare systems with a leading research university, we create an environment where scientists, physicians, educators, and community partners work across institutional boundaries to accelerate discovery and translate research into better prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship.

This unique model expands access for patients and caregivers to expertise, technologies, clinical trials, and shared resources that no single institution could provide alone. Together, we're advancing cancer research, strengthening the region's research enterprise, improving patient outcomes, and reducing the burden of cancer for the more than four million people who call Northeast Ohio home.
