Now that the acquisition has been completed, CTCA will transition into a nonprofit organization. CTCA President and CEO Pat Basu, MD, will report to City of Hope President and CEO Robert Stone.

“With the completion of this acquisition, City of Hope and Cancer Treatment Centers of America are combining complementary strengths, with a shared commitment to providing the best, most compassionate care possible,” Mr. Stone said. “Together, we are creating a new model for how cancer care is delivered, leveraging real-world cancer care experience to inform scientific innovation and making tomorrow’s new discoveries available to the people who need them today.”
