Private Health Management's Whitepaper Highlights Breakthroughs in Cancer Survival

Data Demonstrate 2 to 4 Times Longer Survival Rates Across Six Advanced Cancer Types

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Private Health Management (PHM), a leader in precision medicine and personalized care for serious and complex medical conditions, today announced the release of its latest whitepaper, "Improving Cancer Survival: PHM's Impact on Cancer Care." This comprehensive analysis of 15 years of data reveals that PHM clients with advanced cancer survived 2 to 4 times longer than patients in the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registries. SEER is widely recognized as the gold standard for cancer registry data quality in the U.S. and globally. PHM's analysis covers breast, colorectal, lung, prostate, brain, and pancreatic cancers.

Key Findings from PHM's Applied Health Intelligence Whitepaper Series on Cancer:

• Survival was 2 to 4 times longer for PHM clients with advanced cancers, including four common cancers—breast, colorectal, lung, and prostate, as well as two cancers with historically poor outcomes—brain and pancreatic.
• Molecular profiling was utilized to optimize treatment plans 4 to 13 times more frequently than in standard clinical practice.
• PHM's clinical trial enrollment rate for clients with cancer is 4 times higher than the U.S. average, and 87% of those who enrolled had stage 4 cancer.
• The analysis underscores key components of effective cancer care, including screenings, early detection, precision oncology, advanced molecular diagnostics, clinical trials, and breakthrough treatments.

"Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming to you and your family. Our goal at PHM is to ensure that our clients and their families receive the best available care at such a critical time," said Ken Tarkoff, CEO of PHM. "For nearly two decades, PHM has offered expert guidance, continuous hope, and the best path forward through the most serious and complex diseases. At the core of PHM's approach is a commitment to clinical excellence, driven by scientific evidence, and compassionate, independent support."

The Value of Comprehensive Care

As cancer progresses and spreads to distant areas, treatment becomes increasingly challenging, making survival difficult. While cancer diagnostics and treatments are advancing rapidly, the complexity of the healthcare system has made it harder for patients to navigate and for care providers to consistently deliver the most effective treatment options. Identifying and accessing the best care is now more critical than ever. PHM bridges the critical gaps in the traditional healthcare model by providing individuals, families, and employers with powerful strategies to improve health outcomes.

• Personalized Support: Every client is guided by a dedicated multi-disciplinary Personal Care Team, led by advanced practice clinicians and PhD research scientists, offering 24/7 clinical and logistical support, AI-powered medical literature research, and decision-making guidance.
• Removing Barriers: PHM collaborates with community oncologists, academic medical centers, research institutions, and top experts to bridge critical gaps in traditional healthcare models.
• Access to World-Class Care: PHM ensures clients receive the latest molecular diagnostics, cutting-edge treatments, and clinical trial opportunities often unavailable in standard care settings.

"Millions of Americans diagnosed with cancer each year need timely access to expert guidance and personalized treatment plans to ensure the best possible outcomes," said Tommy Axford, PHM's Chief Commercial Officer and co-author of the whitepaper. "We can help break down barriers and deliver better cancer care to improve health outcomes for individuals who are facing a complex and often dire cancer diagnosis."
