The new facility is poised to offer treatments, such as proton beam therapy and nuclear theranostics.
Australia has invested approximately $720.8m (A$1.1b) into developing the 150-bed Queensland Cancer Centre.
Slated for a 2028 opening, the centre is set to offer proton beam therapy, which uses radiation to target cancers more precisely near vital and vulnerable organs.
Moreover, the facility will deliver additional cancer treatments, such as cellular therapy and nuclear theranostics.
Its establishment aligns with the government’s “Queensland Cancer Plan”, a 10-year initiative with over $1.1b (A$1.73b) investment.
“This record-breaking investment and strategy will enable key initiatives to be delivered including lifesaving therapies, and bringing more services closer to home,” Minister for Health, Mental Health and Ambulance Service, Shannon Fentiman, said.
