You Deserve a Cancer Treatment Plan That’s Developed Specifically for You.

Your Cancer is Unique. Discover Treatments Tailored to You.

Your cancer is as unique as your fingerprint. Your treatment should be too. First Ascent gives you answers based on how your tumor actually responds to drugs.

When standard options have been exhausted, we offer something different—personalized, science-backed treatment recommendations tailored to how your cancer actually responds.

We are currently involved in two clinical studies NTC05857969 & NCT06024603. Our mission is to make this platform accessible outside of a clinical trial. Giving those with the rarest cancers a fighting chance. A treatment plan for every type of cancer including all solid and all liquid tumors.

First Ascent’s first-in-kind solutions focus on you — your cancer, your tumor, your biology — in a highly individualized way — vs. the historical perspective of traditional standards of care limited to historical analysis.

Our Drug Prediction Platform, originally created to give those with the rarest cancers a fighting chance, now can develop treatment plans for every type of cancer including all solid and all liquid tumors.

Wherever You Are In Your Cancer Journey

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, seeking second opinions, or exploring options after treatment, we’re here to guide you.

No matter your stage, no matter your path, you can find answers, clarity, and hope.

Our team connects you with treatment insights grounded in science, speed, and compassion—so you can move forward with confidence.

How It Works

We work with your doctor wherever you are and bring clarity in three simple steps:

1. Start the Conversation

Connect with First Ascent or ask your oncologist to reach out.

2. We Test Your Cancer

We take a small fresh sample of tissue or blood that contains cancer cells and test them against hundreds of FDA-approved drugs and combinations to find out which ones fight your cancer and which ones don’t. Our advanced tools combine that with genetic information to spot your cancer’s hidden weaknesses.

3. You Get Clear Answers

In an average of 10 days, you and your doctor get a personalized report detailing which therapies are most likely to help you (and which to avoid) for your specific cancer cells. This data helps you and your doctor make better decisions faster.

Real Results. Real Lives.

Our approach has shown up to an 83% improvement in outcomes for patients with hard-to-treat or recurrent cancers.

When Logan was just 3 years old, he was diagnosed with a type of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia. He was treated with chemotherapy and had a bone marrow transplant. It worked for a while, but 14 months later, his cancer came back.

His doctor used the First Ascent platform to help guide his next treatment.

The test quickly showed which drug combination was most likely to help and which drugs weren’t needed. Logan started his new treatment plan right away.

Now, more than two years later, Logan is still cancer-free.
