目的 早期职业研究者很少有机会接受支持性肿瘤学研究方面的有针对性的培训。为了满足这一需求,我们为跨学科的实习生和初级教师制定、实施和评估了为期六天的密集型支持性肿瘤学研究方法研讨会。方法由支持性肿瘤学研究人员组成的多学科团队仿照美国临床肿瘤学会和美国癌症研究协会联合举办的临床试验研讨会举办了研讨会。课程包括讲座和撰写研究方案的指导经验。自2015年以来,该研讨会每年都会接受并培训36名早期职业调查员。在研讨会期间,参与者每天以由高级研究人员领导的小组形式展示其研究方案的各个部分,并有专门的时间来编写和修改这些部分。研讨会的主要成果包括研讨会结束时完成协议的频率、评估参与者知识的测试前和测试后以及对参与者及其主要导师的后续调查。结果三年来,研讨会收到了 195 份申请; 109 名早期职业研究人员被竞争性地选拔参加。所有参与者(109/109,100%)在研讨会结束时都完成了协议的编写。参与者及其主要导师报告说,他们的研究知识和技能有了显着提高。每年,参与者都对研讨会的满意度、价值以及向同事推荐的可能性给予高度评价。第一次研讨会一年后,大多数受访者(29/30,96.7%)要么提交了他们的方案,要么编写了至少一个其他方案。结果的意义我们举办了一个关于支持性肿瘤学研究方法的研讨会。申请参加研讨会的早期职业调查员数量超出了容量,每年研讨会的参加人数都很高。研讨会参与者和他们的主要导师都报告说研究技能和知识有所提高。
ObjectiveEarly career investigators have few opportunities for targeted training in supportive oncology research. To address this need, we developed, implemented, and evaluated an intensive, six-day workshop on methods in supportive oncology research for trainees and junior faculty across multiple disciplines.MethodA multidisciplinary team of supportive oncology researchers developed a workshop patterned after the clinical trials workshop offered jointly by the American Society of Clinical Oncology and American Association of Cancer Research. The curriculum included lectures and a mentored experience of writing a research protocol. Each year since 2015, the workshop has accepted and trained 36 early career investigators. Over the course of the workshop, participants present sections of their research protocols daily in small groups led by senior researchers, and have dedicated time to write and revise these sections. Primary outcomes for the workshop included the frequency of completed protocols by the end of the workshop, a pre- and posttest assessing participant knowledge, and follow-up surveys of the participants and their primary mentors.ResultOver three years, the workshop received 195 applications; 109 early career researchers were competitively selected to participate. All participants (109/109, 100%) completed writing a protocol by the end of their workshop. Participants and their primary mentors reported significant improvements in their research knowledge and skills. Each year, participants rated the workshop highly in terms of satisfaction, value, and likelihood of recommending it to a colleague. One year after the first workshop, most respondents (29/30, 96.7%) had either submitted their protocol or written at least one other protocol.Significance of resultsWe developed a workshop on research methods in supportive oncology. More early career investigators applied for the workshop than capacity, and the workshop was fully attended each year. Both the workshop participants and their primary mentors reported improvement in research skills and knowledge.
