Sk8 to Elimin8 Cancer returns to Campus Martius Park on Thursday, Feb. 13, at 6 p.m. Put on by the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation, this annual ice skating show raises funds for innovative cancer research, providing a portion of the money raised by ice skaters and skate teams in Michigan to Karmanos Cancer Institute. Anthony Shields, M.D., Ph.D., medical oncologist, member of the Gastrointestinal and Neuroendocrine Oncology Multidisciplinary Team, and associate center director of Clinical Science and Community Oncology, explained how this year’s event will support studies with the new TheraBionic P1 device, an at-home, handheld treatment. Already FDA-approved to treat advanced liver cancer, Karmanos clinical and scientific researchers will study how this device could potentially treat solid tumors in other areas of the body.
