CANCER PREVENTION AND CONTROL PROGRAM

项目总结(见说明)： 癌症预防和控制计划(CPC)在Winship癌症研究所(Winship)和整个埃默里大学组织和促进所有与癌症预防和控制相关的研究活动。 CPC项目利用的是一所拥有医学院和护理学院的研究型大学，以及一所功能齐全、全国排名的公共卫生学院，在此基础上建立一个癌症中心项目，涵盖癌症预防和控制研究的全方位。该计划内的研究有四个科学主题：1)癌症流行病学、生物标记物和化学预防；2)健康行为研究；3)症状管理和控制；以及4)健康结果和护理质量。这些主题涉及该计划的目标，即降低癌症风险、发病率、发病率和 通过以下途径提高佐治亚州的死亡率：描述和跟踪所有癌症的发病率和死亡率趋势；在人类中开展基于人群的病因学研究；在佐治亚州和各国合作开展化学预防试验；开展研究，应用人类行为理论通过早期发现预防癌症；开展研究，以确定癌症患者的行为并存范围；了解这些行为并存的相关机制和治疗方法；以及进行研究，描述、解释和预测干预措施和对决策者重要的其他因素对癌症结果的影响。 CPC项目的成员来自埃默里大学所有三所学校的12个系：公共卫生学院、护理学院和医学院。该计划有31个核心成员和12个联盟成员(在亚特兰大[即，美国癌症协会和疾病控制和预防中心]的非附属机构中积极参与CPC计划活动的人员)，以及由20个核心成员领导的42个NIH和其他国家、同行评审的与癌症相关的赠款组合，每年的计划直接费用合计为9,763,879美元(总共57个外部资助的癌症 研究补助金，项目直接费用为11,188,786美元)。在当前的赠款期间，CPC核心成员同行评审的癌症出版物数量为247篇，其中24%是方案内的，14%是方案间的。

PROJECT SUMMARY (See instructions): The Cancer Prevention and Control Program (CPC) organizes and promotes all cancer prevention and control-related research activities in the Winship Cancer Institute (Winship) and across Emory University. The CPC Program capitalizes on being in a research university with schools of medicine and nursing and a full-featured, nationally ranked school of public health from which to build a cancer center program that addresses the full spectrum of cancer prevention and control research. Research within the program is characterized by four scientific themes: 1) Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers, and Chemoprevention; 2) Health Behavior Research; 3) Symptom Management and Control; and 4) Health Outcomes and Quality of Care. These themes address the program's goals of reducing cancer risk, incidence, morbidity, and mortality in Georgia through: describing and tracking cancer incidence and mortality trends of all cancers; conducting population-based etiologic research in humans; conducting chemoprevention trials in Georgia and in national collaborations; conducting research that applies theories of human behavior to prevent cancer through early detection; conducting research to characterize the scope of behavioral co-morbidities which occur in patients with cancer; understanding relevant mechanisms and treatments of these behavioral co-morbidities; and conducting research that describes, interprets, and predicts the impact of interventions and other factors on cancer outcomes important to decision makers. The CPC Program has members from 12 departments across all three schools within Emory University: the Schools of Public Health, Nursing, and Medicine. The program has 31 core members and 12 coalition members (persons in non-affiliated institutions in Atlanta [i.e., the American Cancer Society and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention] who actively participate in the CPC Program's activities), and a portfolio of 42 NIH and other national, peer-reviewed, cancer-related grants headed by 20 core members, with a combined annual funding of $9,763,879 in program direct costs (out of a total of 57 externally-funded cancer research grants with $11,188,786 in program direct costs). The number of peer-reviewed cancer publications by CPC core members during the current grant period was 247, of which 24% were Intraprogrammatic and 14% were inter-programmatic.
