Adaptive Research Marks Milestone Growth with First Theranostics Center in Partnership with Florida Theranostics

Expansion further reduces the gap between clinical practice and clinical research with first center in Florida and venture into theranostic cancer treatment services


SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adaptive Research, a pioneering organization committed to democratizing clinical trials by offering comprehensive support to community-based trial investigators, today announced a landmark agreement with Florida Theranostics. This partnership signifies Adaptive Research’s strategic expansion into both the Florida healthcare market and the burgeoning field of theranostics.

Entering Florida, a state with a diverse, aging, and growing population, represents a significant move for Adaptive Research. This expansion not only enables access to a broader patient base but also positions Adaptive Research in a region with a high incidence of cancer, where innovative therapies are critically needed.

Florida Theranostics, with its cutting-edge facilities for clinical care, will also serve as a vital clinical trial site for sponsors developing radioligand therapies. Adaptive Research will empower this endeavor with expert research support staff and proficient management of regulatory filings, clinical trial-related finance, and budgeting, ensuring Good Clinical Practice (GCP).

Theranostics, particularly those employing radioligand therapies — a personalized approach where cancer’s unique biological signatures guide both its detection and targeted treatment — are fast emerging as a cornerstone of precision oncology. As treatment-resistant cancers increasingly challenge healthcare, novel theranostic solutions are attracting growing clinical interest. Academic centers alone cannot sustain this upsurge, nor can they adequately represent the diverse patient populations that clinical trials must encompass. This partnership between Adaptive Research and Florida Theranostics presents an innovative and scalable solution to these critical issues.

“Adaptive Research is honored to forge this alliance with Florida Theranostics, a partner that has swiftly proven the viability of highly specialized treatments within a community context,” stated Deepak Behera, MD, President and CEO of Adaptive Research. “Our robust in-house Nuclear Medicine expertise, in synergy with Florida Theranostics, reinforces our confidence in elevating this center to a pinnacle of clinical research, mirroring the excellence of advanced academic establishments.”

Ashok Muthukrishnan, MD, Founder and Chief Physician of Florida Theranostics Cancer Center echoed this sentiment, stating, “Our partnership with Adaptive Research aligns with our core mission of delivering exceptional patient care. This relationship amplifies our capacity to introduce our patients to groundbreaking treatments while we sustain our devotion to uncompromising clinical care.”
