NCI Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP) Minority/Underserved Community Sites

项目摘要/摘要 新墨西哥州MU-NCORP的首要目标是提高我们所有人的癌症护理质量 集水区(新墨西哥州)和消除癌症健康差距的巨大负担 在我们服务的多种族人口中，我们建立了创新的全州推广计划，成立于 社区参与式研究方法与社区卫生科学合作 系统和提供者与主要的学术附属网站，从而提高了认识，接受， 所有新墨西哥人都可以参与NCI赞助的癌症筛查、治疗后监测、 预防和治疗临床试验。新墨西哥大学综合癌症研究中心(联合国儿童基金会) 作为癌症人口科学、癌症控制、 健康差距和临床干预，与几乎所有新墨西哥卫生系统和 社区癌症护理站点是新墨西哥州癌症护理联盟(NMCCA， 第二附属公司)，一个联合的501C3全州临床试验研究网络，提供主要的临床试验 基础设施，以支持NCI NCORP的目标。该NM MU-NCORP组织继续参与 我们癌症健康使命中的所有利益相关者，并建立在建立良好的20年伙伴关系的基础上 部分由先前的NCI MB-CCOP和当前的NCORP赠款提供。该财团有良好的业绩记录， 在NCTN成功招收新墨西哥州高度多样化的多种族、农村和服务不足的癌症患者 并推出了几项癌症护理服务(CCDR)试验，这些试验引起了我们社区的极大兴趣 合伙人。NM MU-NCORP将继续积极参与制定整个国家的研究战略 NCORP研究基地，并将作为整个NCORP网络的工作伙伴。拥有最高的 在任何一个州的拉美裔和美国印第安人中，新墨西哥州的210万公民中有39%是非 西班牙裔白人占47%，美国印第安人占10%，黑人占2.4%，亚裔和其他少数民族占1.6%。 新墨西哥州的年人均收入在美国排名垫底(第48位)，新墨西哥州有相当数量的新墨西哥州 墨西哥人，特别是其少数民族，是贫穷的农村人，服务不足。是全国最高的 (30%)儿童贫困，近20%的新墨西哥州人生活在贫困中，10%-13%的新墨西哥州人生活在贫困中， 视县情况而定，仍然缺乏医疗保险。我们的研究策略以学术/社区为重点。 团队合作伙伴关系，以解决癌症筛查、预防、癌症控制、癌症护理提供、 和治疗干预，以便优先考虑和优化以试验为基础的癌症护理，同时加强 与NCORP研究基地合作，以产生下一代试验，以解决 由MU-NCORP服务的新墨西哥人的癌症差异。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The overarching goal of the New Mexico MU-NCORP is to improve the quality of cancer care throughout our catchment area (the State of New Mexico) and to eliminate the tremendous burden of cancer health disparities in the multiethnic populations that we serve by building innovative statewide outreach programs, founded in community-based participatory research methods and scientific collaborations between community health systems and providers with the primary academic affiliate site, resulting in an increased awareness, acceptance, access, and participation by all New Mexicans in NCI-sponsored cancer screening, post-treatment surveillance, prevention, and therapeutic clinical trials. The University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer (UNMCCC) serves as the primary affiliate with strong scientific programs in cancer population sciences, cancer control, health disparities, and clinical interventions, in partnership with nearly all New Mexico health systems and community cancer care sites that are consortium members of the New Mexico Cancer Care Alliance (NMCCA, secondary affiliate), a joint 501c3 statewide clinical trials research network that provides the major clinical trials infrastructure to support the goals of the NCI NCORP. This NM MU-NCORP organization continues to engage all stakeholders in our cancer health mission and builds upon a well-established 20 year partnership supported in part by prior NCI MB-CCOP and current NCORP grants. This consortium has a proven track record and success in enrolling New Mexico's highly diverse multiethnic, rural, and underserved cancer patients in NCTN trials and has launched several cancer care delivery (CCDR) trials that are of great interest to our community partners. The NM MU-NCORP will continue to be actively engaged in developing research strategies across the NCORP Research Bases and will serve as working partners throughout the NCORP Network. With the highest percentage of Hispanics and American Indians of any state, New Mexico's 2.1 million citizens are 39% non- Hispanic White, 47% Hispanic, 10% American Indian, 2.4% Black, and 1.6% Asian and other ethnic minorities. New Mexico ranks at the bottom (48th) in the U.S. in annual per capita income and a substantial number of New Mexicans, particularly its minority populations, are poor, rural, and underserved. With the nation's highest rate (30%) of childhood poverty, nearly 20% of all New Mexicans live in poverty and 10-13% of New Mexicans, depending on the county, still lack health insurance. Our research strategy is focused on academic/community team partnerships to address all aspects of cancer screening, prevention, cancer control, cancer care delivery, and therapeutic intervention in order to prioritize and optimize trial-based cancer care, while enhancing collaboration with the NCORP Research Bases in order to generate the next generation of trials to address the cancer disparities of the New Mexicans served by the MU-NCORP.
