University of Rochester-NCORP Research Base

描述（由申请人提供）：自1983年以来一直服务于CCOP项目的传统研究基地，过渡到NCORP，罗切斯特大学（URCC）提议继续其研究重点，通过提高癌症护理的质量，解决癌症经历产生的毒副作用，降低癌症患者，幸存者及其护理伙伴的生理和心理治疗相关的发病率和死亡率。在过去的30年里，URCC在癌症控制和癌症护理研究活动方面发展和开发了大量资源。根据NCI CCOP项目工作人员的数据，在过去五年的续期期间，研究基地附属机构根据URCC协议获得的4,871个学分占同期资助的14个研究基地提供的癌症控制学分总额的22%。在接下来的五年里，该研究基地将继续作为一个以大学为基础的NCORP研究基地，开展最先进的癌症控制和癌症护理提供研究。我们的流程和组织通过社区附属机构和经验丰富的调查人员之间的密切合作促进协议的制定；通过我们的临床和观察试验收集的数据为未来的研究提供了信息

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A legacy Research Base serving the CCOP program since 1983, transitioning into NCORP, the University of Rochester (URCC) proposes to continue its research focus on decreasing physical and psychological treatment-related morbidity and mortality among cancer patients, survivors, and their care partners by improving the quality of cancer care that addresses toxicities and side effects stemming from the cancer experience. Over the past 30 years the URCC has evolved and developed considerable resources for cancer control and cancer care delivery research activities. The 4,871 credits earned during the last five-year renewal period by Research Base affiliates on URCC protocols are 22% of the total cancer control credits provided for the 14 research bases funded during that period, according to NCI CCOP Program Staff. Over the next five years, the Research Base will continue its commitment as a university-based NCORP Research Base, producing state-of-the-science cancer control and cancer care delivery research. Our process and organization fosters protocol development through close collaboration among community affiliates and experienced investigators; data collected through our clinical and observational trials informs future research and policy; we pioneer use of new methodologies and exploration of mechanistic pathways; and we are dedicated to increasing the diversity of participants in our trials and to training junior investigators and community affiliates. Fifty-seven different potential research concepts have been presented and discussed in open forum at the last five annual group meetings. Twenty-one of them were proposed by colleagues geographically outside the University including eight from community affiliates. Each of the current eight approved protocols is either chaired or co-chaired by current CCOP/MBCCOP community affiliates.
