Good morning, Peoria.

OSF Cancer Institute is testing a new pancreatic cancer treatment in clinical trials that may gain approval later in 2026 + the therapy targets the KRAS Mutation found in most patients with this hard-to-detect disease in Central Illinois.

OSF Healthcare is expanding its Cancer Institute in Peoria to 29,000 sqft to add specialized doctors and collaboration spaces that will bring care teams together under one roof.

The project will be completed in spring to offer streamlined treatment options.

OSF HealthCare broke ground on a new medical office building in Brimfield on Wednesday at the Route 150 and Maher Road intersection, replacing its clinic on E.

Knoxville St. Construction will continue through 2026 to expand primary care access for local families.
