DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Puerto Rico NCI Community Oncology Research Program (PRNCORP) will be the principal organization in the island that promotes cancer prevention, control and screening/post-treatment surveillance clinical trials. It will conduct cancer care delivery research and will provide access to treatment and imaging clinical trials conducted under the reorganization of the National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN). It will evaluate disparity issues and outcomes in cancer care delivery and treatments. The program will accelerate the transfer of new knowledge to treat, control and prevent cancer in the community. The PRNCORP will build and expand upon the scope and activities of the previously NCI-funded San Juan MBCCOP with a more comprehensive approach to adult and pediatric oncology. The island of Puerto Rico, USA, is 100 miles by 35 miles. It is located in the Caribbean Sea, 1,200 miles from the US mainland. The last census of 2010 revealed a population of 3.7 million. The island cancer registry reports about 12,500 new cancer cases per year. There is an excess incidence of cancer as compared with mainland USA for tobacco/alcohol related malignancy especially head and neck, esophageal and liver cancer. Also there is an increased mortality in cervical, uterine and gastric cancer. 40% of the population is medically uninsured but depends on a Medicaid type program called "Mi Salud" that reaches all areas of the island. The PRNCORP will interact and participate with NCORP-research bases including but not limited to: 1) ECOG-ACRIN, 2) NRG, 3) MD Anderson, 4) University South Florida, 5) Wake Forest University, 6) CTSU, and 7) COG. The program has expanded to include 4 hospitals, one University Cancer Center, 3 radiology groups, 2 radiation oncology facilities, 9 medical oncology groups and 1 primary care physician group. The program will have 85 investigators including 11 oncology fellows in-training. The PRNCORP will continue to expand its activities and increase the participation of more cancer healthcare professionals and institutions in the island. It will develop research affiliations with NCI-sponsored research bases that offer meaningful and other culturally sensitive cancer care delivery research.

描述（由申请人提供）：波多黎各NCI社区肿瘤学研究计划（PRNCORP）将是岛上促进癌症预防、控制和筛查/治疗后监测临床试验的主要组织。它将进行癌症护理研究，并将提供在国家临床试验网络（NCTN）重组下进行的治疗和成像临床试验。它将评估癌症护理和治疗中的差异问题和结果。该计划将加速新知识的转移，以治疗，控制和预防社区癌症。PRNCORP将建立和扩大以前由NCI资助的圣胡安MBCCOP的范围和活动，对成人和儿童肿瘤学采取更全面的方法。美国的波多黎各岛长100英里，宽35英里。它位于加勒比海，距离美国大陆1，200英里。2010年的最新人口普查显示人口为370万。岛上癌症登记处报告每年约有12 500个新的癌症病例。与美国大陆相比，与烟草/酒精相关的恶性肿瘤，特别是头颈癌、食管癌和肝癌的发病率较高。宫颈癌、子宫癌和胃癌的死亡率也有所增加。40%的人口没有医疗保险，但依靠一个名为“Mi Salud”的医疗补助计划，该计划覆盖该岛的所有地区。PRNCORP将与NCORP研究基地互动并参与，包括但不限于：1）ECOG-ACRIN，2）NRG，3）MD安德森，4）南佛罗里达大学，5）维克森林大学，6）CTSU和7）COG。该计划已扩大到包括4家医院、1个大学癌症中心、3个放射科小组、2个放射肿瘤学设施、9个肿瘤内科小组和1个初级保健医生小组。该项目将有85名研究员，其中包括11名正在接受培训的肿瘤学研究员。PRNCORP将继续扩大其活动，并增加岛上更多癌症保健专业人员和机构的参与。它将与NCI赞助的研究基地建立研究联系，提供有意义的和其他文化敏感的癌症护理提供研究。
