e a dent against this disease."

In his dual roles at Scottsdale Healthcare and as physician-in-chief at Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen), Dr. Von Hoff leads a team of world-class cancer researchers in the TGen Clinical Research Services at Scottsdale Healthcare (TCRS) clinic in the Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center.

Several studies conducted at Scottsdale Healthcare have yielded promising results to advance the battle against cancer. Skin, lung and pancreatic cancer clinical trials conducted at Scottsdale Healthcare have been the subject of scientific papers and presentations at recent international cancer conferences.

New drugs and therapies studied here are the first step from the research lab to cancer patients. Successful results may lead to eventual approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to become standard treatment. Clinical trials in the Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center are administered by the Scottsdale Clinical Research Institute.

TCRS is a partnership of the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) and Scottsdale Healthcare. The partnership allows molecular and genomic discoveries made by TGen and others around the world to reach patients in the Virginia G. Piper Cancer Center at Scottsdale Healthcare as quickly as possible through clinical trials with agents directed at specific targets in patients' tumors.

"Cancer patients in our community have access to this ground-breaking, world-class research right in their own backyard," said Mark Slater, PhD, vice president of research at Scottsdale Healthcare. "Our goal is reducing the time it takes to get new treatment discoveries from the research lab to the patient, and we are pleased that proceeds from The Honor Ball will support this important work."

The Honor Ball has raised more than $8 million through individual and corporate donations to benefit Scottsdale Healthcare.
