City of Hope is one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the United States, with its National Medical Center ranked among the top five in the nation for cancer by U.S. News & World Report. With 39 locations across five metropolitan areas and its newest addition, Hope Plaza, City of Hope is transforming scientific breakthroughs into lifesaving treatments for patients everywhere.
Breakthrough Cancer Cures and Lifesaving Care
With stunning views of the San Gabriel Mountains, Hope Plaza is one of City of Hope’s most ambitious projects yet. “It’s much more
than a medical building,” says Marcel van den Brink, M.D., Ph.D., president of City of Hope National Medical Center.
As the centerpiece of a multi-year campus transformation near City of Hope’s National Medical Center in Los Angeles, Hope Plaza expands space for lifesaving innovations—all under one roof. It integrates breakthrough science, game-changing outpatient care, and leading-edge, image-guided therapies for previously untreatable diseases.
Its location, just steps from research labs and patient care settings, enhances City of Hope’s ability to deliver lifesaving therapies and clinical trials directly to patients.
“As a physician-researcher, I especially value bringing scientific discovery, advanced technology, and humanity together in one space,” Dr. van den Brink said. “We’re harnessing the power of proximity.”
Home to World-Class Cellular Therapy
Hope Plaza—winner of multiple design awards—is built for both today and the future. It features an expanded clinical research unit for patients to receive the latest cellular therapies, along with enhanced facilities for pain management, nutrition, and other services that support patient recovery.
The impact of philanthropy has turned ideas into reality — from state-of-the-art infusion rooms to tranquil gardens — that enable lifesaving care and healing.
With eight floors and over 350,000 square feet, Hope Plaza provides a more seamless patient experience for specialized outpatient and supportive care services.
