At Case CCC, you gain access to a collaborative cancer research enterprise that spans Case Western Reserve University, University Hospitals, and Cleveland Clinic. As an NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center, we bring together more than 400 investigators across disciplines and institutions to accelerate discoveries that improve cancer prevention, detection, treatment, and survivorship.

Whether you are launching a new research program, seeking collaborators, developing clinical trials, or pursuing translational discoveries, Case CCC provides the connections, resources, and infrastructure to help move your science forward.

Collaborate Across Three Premier Institutions

Few cancer centers offer the opportunities created by a consortium that combines a leading research university with two nationally recognized health systems.

Through Case CCC, you can build collaborations that extend beyond institutional boundaries, connecting with experts in basic, translational, clinical, population, and data science. This unique environment fosters interdisciplinary research, encourages innovation, and creates opportunities to pursue complex scientific questions through team science.

By bringing together complementary expertise and resources, our consortium enables discoveries that move more rapidly from the laboratory to patients and communities.

Connect Through Interdisciplinary Research Programs

You can engage with investigators across six interdisciplinary scientific programs that provide a framework for collaboration, scientific exchange, and research development. These programs connect researchers with shared scientific interests, facilitate new partnerships, and support the development of innovative projects and competitive extramural funding opportunities.

Whether your work focuses on cancer biology, therapeutics, prevention, population science, or emerging technologies, you will find opportunities to contribute and collaborate.

Access Resources that Accelerate Discovery

Case CCC membership provides access to specialized shared resources, pilot funding opportunities, educational programs, and collaborative networks designed to support research excellence.

Our shared resources provide investigators with advanced technologies, specialized expertise, and scientific support that strengthen research productivity and enhance the quality and impact of cancer-focused studies.

Researchers also benefit from opportunities for mentorship, leadership development, career advancement, and participation in center-wide initiatives that foster scientific growth and collaboration.

Advance Translational and Clinical Research

Case CCC investigators have access to a coordinated clinical research infrastructure that supports the development and conduct of innovative cancer clinical trials across University Hospitals and Cleveland Clinic.

Clinical Trials Disease Teams, scientific review processes, and integrated monitoring systems help investigators efficiently develop and implement studies while maintaining the highest standards of scientific rigor and patient safety.

This collaborative approach strengthens investigator-initiated research, expands access to diverse patient populations, and accelerates the translation of discoveries into new prevention strategies, diagnostics, and treatments.

Make an Impact

As the NCI-designated cancer center serving Northeast Ohio, Case CCC is committed to addressing the cancer burden across our region.

Researchers have opportunities to partner with communities, healthcare systems, public health organizations, and patients to better understand the factors that influence cancer risk, outcomes, and access to care. These partnerships help generate evidence-based solutions that improve health locally while informing cancer control efforts nationally.
