As a leader in cancer research, Karmanos is able to offer patients access to innovative treatments and clinical trials that are often times not available anywhere else.
To offer hope and longer life to patients with all types of cancer, Karmanos offers the latest types of therapy through our clinical trials program. Through clinical trials, we are creating new knowledge about how therapies fight cancer and provide national leadership in testing these new therapies.
We understand that cancer is a complex disease that demands complex care. We provide each patient with a dynamic, carefully constructed treatment plan focused on their specific cancer and their unique needs.
We listen to you to design a plan that provides you with respect, compassionate care and is responsive to your emotional and practical concerns.
I Don’t Care with Dr. Kevin Stevenson
With more cancer cases being diagnosed among young adults, Najeeb Al Hallak, M.D., MS, medical oncologist, co-leader of the Gastrointestinal and Neuroendocrine Oncology Multidisciplinary Team (MDT), and member of the Phase I Clinical Trials MDT at Karmanos, discussed this increasing number on the I Don’t Care with Dr. Kevin Stevenson podcast. He explained that there is not a known reason why this is occurring; however, it could be due to a combination of causes. Dr. Al Hallak gives some suggestions to primary care physicians to understand their patient’s risk of cancer and what additional testing may be needed.
