UNM Pediatric Clinical Trials Center in IDeA States Pediatric Clinical Trials Network

摘要 儿科试验团队迫切需要高技能的医生调查人员，以便能够利用 新技术，并响应日益增长的高质量儿科临床试验的需求。同时 随着时间的推移，农村和服务不足的社区需要获得这些临床试验并从中受益。在当地， 在区域和国家范围内，UNM儿科临床试验中心(PCTC)将支持和促进儿科 临床试验。我们的影响具有重大意义，原因有很多：1)UNM PCTC将成为进入我们多样化的 患者群体，包括代表性不足的种族和民族群体以及地理上孤立的和 资源不足的农村社区；我们的社区参与方法加强了对这些人的招募 将不同人群纳入研究研究，并将改善儿科人群的健康；2)UNM PCTC 是当地和地区所需要的资产。UNM PCTC拥有一支敬业和熟练的研究团队，包括 训练有素的研究人员进行多地点儿科临床试验；3)UNM PCTC将带来独特的能力 机构发展奖(IDEA)国家儿科临床试验网络(ISPCTN)，包括 与临床和转化科学中心(CTSC)合作；4)我们拥有独特和成熟的 作为UNM的一部分，在临床研究基础设施和翻译劳动力发展(TWD)方面的优势 CTSC将为整个ISPCTN提供宝贵的资产；5)最后，UNM PCTC将经历 参与多点儿科临床试验的首席研究人员(PI)以及从 全州范围内的社区和农村地区。它们将是ECHO ISPCTN的一笔巨大资产。UNM PCTC将提供 一个经验丰富的研究团队将与国家数据协调和运营中心合作 ECHO ISPCTN(DCOC)。该小组将改善接触相关人群的机会，并加快整体研究 参与者的应计和留存，同时生成符合监管标准的高质量数据。UNM PCTC和合作者将提供所需的专业知识，以确定高度优先的研究主题，包括农村 和服务不足的社区。我们将对多站点的访问和质量产生积极影响 以可衡量的方式进行儿科研究。我们将通过提高速度和效率来实现这一点 多站点儿科试验，并使用创新方法提高参与度、登记和保留 来自新墨西哥州的不同人群。我们将通过培训独立的儿科医生来维持网络生产力 随着我们在儿童健康方面的科学知识的进步，临床试验研究人员。

Abstract Highly skilled physician investigators are urgently needed for pediatric trial teams that can take advantage of new technologies and respond to the increasing demands of high quality pediatric clinical trials. At the same time, rural and underserved communities need access to and to benefit from these clinical trials. Locally, regionally, and nationally, UNM Pediatric Clinical Triasl Center (PCTC) will support and advance pediatric clinical trials. Our impact is significant for many reasons: 1) UNM PCTC will be a portal of entry to our diverse patient populations including underrepresented racial and ethnic groups as well as geographically isolated and under-resourced rural communities; Our community-engaged approach strengthens recruitment of these diverse populations into research studies and will improve health among pediatric populations; 2) UNM PCTC is a needed asset locally and regionally. UNM PCTC has a dedicated and skilled research team including trained investigators to conduct multisite pediatric clinical trials; 3) UNM PCTC will bring unique capabilities to the Institutional Development Award (IDeA) States Pediatric Clinical Trials Network (ISPCTN), including collaboration with the Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTSC); 4) We have unique and established strengths in clinical study infrastructure and Translational Workforce Development (TWD) as part of UNM CTSC that will provide valuable assets to the entire ISPCTN; 5) Finally, UNM PCTC will have experienced principal investigators (PIs) participating in multisite pediatric clinical trials and recruitment and retention from communities and rural areas statewide. They will be a great asset to the ECHO ISPCTN. UNM PCTC will offer an experienced team of researchers to work with the IDeA states Data Coordinating and Operations Center (DCOC) of ECHO ISPCTN. The team will improve access to relevant populations and accelerate overall study accrual and retention of participants while generating high-quality data that meet regulatory standards. UNM PCTC and collaborators will offer expertise needed to identify research topics of high priority, including rural and underserved communities. We will exert a positive impact on access and on the quality of multisite pediatric studies in a measureable way. We will accomplish this by increasing the speed and efficiency of multisite pediatric trials and by using innovative methods to improve engagement, enrollment, and retention of diverse populations from New Mexico. We will sustain Network productivity by training independent pediatric clinical-trial investigators as we advance scientific knowledge in child health.
