COMMUNITY CLINICAL ONCOLOGY PROGRAM

西部城市-明尼阿波利斯社区临床肿瘤学项目(WMMCCOP) 代表由七家医院组成的财团，通过其运营 NCI资助的CHOP计划，已经制定了一种共同的方法来 对癌症患者的管理，并有一套既定的机制 协议和患者管理指南的集成。该财团 有一个社区范围的计算机化数据管理系统(肿瘤)能够 未来的数据收集。七家医院加在一起，看到了一个 平均每年有3600名新的癌症分析患者。二十个核心 研究人员还在癌症项目上进行了广泛的合作 发展。几名研究人员拥有ECOG癌症控制的经验 通过明尼苏达大学(UM)的附属机构。WMMCCOP打算 与UM-ECOG在设计、使用方面建立密切的工作关系 和协议的质量控制；建立数据管理计划 高度的质量控制，对医生的反馈和能力 为NCI的总体评估和扩散假说提供数据；以及 建立控制药剂使用的机制，通过 它现有的、经验丰富的药房。在1981年间，WMMCCOP调查人员 根据NCI批准的方案进入115名患者。47名患者被 1982年4月至6月按协议进入。在…的第一年 WMMCCOP手术，调查人员打算将245名患者送入ECOG 协议。

The West Metro-Minneapolis Community Clinical Oncology Program (WMMCCOP) represents a consortium of seven hospitals which, through its operational NCI-funded CHOP program, has already developed a common approach to the management of cancer patients and has an established mechanism for the integration of protocols and patient management guidelines. The consortium has a community-wide, computerized data management system (TUMORS) capable of prospective data collection. Together, the seven hospitals see an average of 3,600 new, analytic cancer patients per year. The twenty core investigators have also worked extensively together on cancer program development. Several investigators have experience as ECOG cancer control affiliates through the University of Minnesota (UM). The WMMCCOP intends to: develop a close working relationship with UM-ECOG on the design, use and quality control of protocols; establish a data management plan with a high degree of quality control, feedback to physicians and capability of providing data for NCI's overall evaluation and diffusion hypothesis; and establish a mechanism to control the use of pharmaceutical agents through its existing, experienced pharmacy. During 1981, WMMCCOP investigators entered 115 patients on NCI approved protocols. Forty-seven patients were entered on protocol from April to June, 1982. During the first year of WMMCCOP operation, investigators intend to enter 245 patients onto ECOG protocols.
