The Bronx MBCCOP is derivative of the outstanding and experienced clinical research program now established at Our Lady of Mercy Cancer Center and the extensive Community Outreach and Primary Care network already in existence at Our Lady of Mercy Medical Center. The Aims of this MBCCOP are 1) To develop a collaborative community-based research program that will provide access to NCI cancer prevention and treatment clinical trials for both primary care and cancer physicians in the Bronx. 2) To educate and inform minority communities in the Bronx about the availability and importance of cancer clinical trials by using the Community Outreach Program at Our Lady of Mercy Medical Center, as well as other cancer prevention and screening programs. And 3) To improve cancer care in the Bronx, hoping to decrease the incidence of cancer, and to increase survivorship, as a result of making NCI clinical trials accessible to the Bronx Community. These aims will be accomplished by developing a network of community oncologists and primary care physicians whose base of practice is OLM, or OLM-affiliated clinics and medical villages. These physicians are committed to participation in therapeutic and prevention clinical trials for their practice populations. Additional involvement in the community, initially via the OLM Community Outreach program will form a basis for community involvement in the MBCCOP as an advisory council. Efforts in screening and prevention intervention will be facilitated through the Community Outreach program and Community Council.

布朗克斯区MBCCOP是由仁慈夫人癌症中心建立的优秀且经验丰富的临床研究项目和仁慈夫人医疗中心已经存在的广泛的社区外展和初级保健网络衍生而来的。MBCCOP的目的是：1)开发一个协作的社区研究项目，为布朗克斯的初级保健和癌症医生提供NCI癌症预防和治疗临床试验的途径。2)通过使用Our Lady of Mercy医疗中心的社区外展项目，以及其他癌症预防和筛查项目，教育和告知布朗克斯的少数族裔社区癌症临床试验的可用性和重要性。3)改善布朗克斯区的癌症治疗，希望减少癌症的发病率，提高生存率，这是使NCI临床试验对布朗克斯社区开放的结果。这些目标将通过发展社区肿瘤学家和初级保健医生网络来实现，这些医生的实践基础是OLM或OLM附属诊所和医疗村。这些医生致力于为他们的实践人群参与治疗和预防临床试验。在社区的进一步参与，最初通过OLM社区外展计划，将形成社区作为咨询委员会参与MBCCOP的基础。筛查和预防干预的工作将通过社区外展计划和社区理事会得到促进。
