项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRCT: OVERALL The Partnership for Native American Cancer Prevention (NACP) is uniquely positioned to address cancer health inequities in Native American communities. Cancer is the second leading cause of death for Native Americans over the age of 45 years. Despite improvements in cancer screening techniques and major developments in cancer treatment in past decades, tribal communities have not benefited equally from these advances. Further, the NIH recognizes that Native Americans have the lowest representation of all underrepresented groups in the biomedical research workforce, which contributes to the overall cancer health inequities for this population. NACP began in 2002 as a partnership between Northern Arizona University (NAU), as the institution serving underserved health disparity populations and underrepresented students, and the University of Arizona Cancer Center (UACC), as the Comprehensive Cancer Center. The overarching goals of NACP are to increase NAU's cancer research and UACC's cancer health disparities capacities by honoring existing and establishing new Native American community partnerships. To meet these goals, the following aims are proposed: Aim 1. Conduct Pilot Research Projects and Full Research Projects, which address Native American cancer disparities and reflect community concerns; Aim 2. Recruit and support Native American faculty focused on cancer research; Aim 3. Create a new shared resource called “Guiding U54 Investigator Development to Sustainability (GUIDeS)“ with the goal to facilitate the transition of NACP- affiliated, Early Stage Investigators/Junior Investigators to research independence; Aim 4. Expand and implement cancer disparities research education with a focus on Native American students across NAU/UA undergraduate and graduate programs; Aim 5. Integrate community engagement principles into all NACP activities, facilitating dissemination of the Partnership's research findings and the National Outreach Network's initiatives to Native American communities. To achieve these Aims, two Full and one Pilot project are proposed; two have Native American co-leaders. One of the Full projects and the Pilot project combine basic science and community engaged research to address gastric and cervical cancer; death rates for these cancers are higher in Native American populations. We propose Administrative, Planning and Evaluation, Research Education, Outreach and GUIDeS Cores to support the research projects and integrate activities across the Partnership. NAU and UACC commit institutional funds to support new projects and Native American investigators. New priorities in this proposal are community engaged research that will impact cancer screening rates, recruitment and mentoring of Native American early stage investigators, grant writing activities to sustain Native American-focused cancer disparities research and initiatives, and joint research education curricula to develop a stronger Native American biomedical workforce. By the end of the proposed funding period, NACP will move Native Americans in Arizona closer to cancer health equity.

项目概要/摘要：总体美洲原住民癌症预防伙伴关系 (NACP) 在解决癌症方面具有独特的优势美洲原住民社区的健康不平等是原住民第二大死亡原因。 45岁以上的美国人尽管癌症筛查技术和专业有所进步。在过去几十年的癌症治疗中，部落社区并未平等地从中受益此外，美国国立卫生研究院承认美洲原住民的比例最低。生物医学研究队伍中代表性不足的群体，这有助于整体癌症健康 NACP 始于 2002 年，是北亚利桑那大学的合作项目。（NAU），作为服务于服务不足的健康差异人群和代表性不足的学生的机构，以及亚利桑那大学癌症中心 (UACC)，作为综合癌症中心。 NACP 的目标是通过以下方式提高 NAU 的癌症研究和 UACC 的癌症健康差异能力：尊重现有的并建立新的美洲原住民社区伙伴关系，以实现这些目标。提出以下目标：目标 1. 开展试点研究项目和全面研究项目，其中解决美洲原住民癌症差异并反映社区关切；目标 2. 招募和支持美国原住民教师专注于癌症研究；目标 3：创建一个名为“指导”的新共享资源 U54 可持续发展研究者发展 (GUIDeS)”，目标是促进 NACP- 的过渡附属的早期研究人员/初级研究人员独立研究目标 4. 扩展和实施癌症差异研究教育，重点关注 NAU/UA 的美国原住民学生本科生和研究生课程；目标 5. 将社区参与原则纳入所有 NACP 活动，促进伙伴关系研究成果和国家外联网络的传播为了实现这些目标，我们制定了两个全面项目和一个试点项目。提议；两个有美洲原住民共同领导者之一，将完整项目和试点项目结合起来。科学和社区参与研究以解决胃癌和宫颈癌的死亡率问题；我们建议进行行政、规划和评估，支持研究项目和整合活动的研究教育、外展和指南核心 NAU 和 UACC 承诺机构资金支持新项目和 Native 美国研究人员提出的新优先事项是影响癌症的社区参与研究。筛选率、美洲原住民早期研究人员的招募和指导、资助写作活动维持以美洲原住民为中心的癌症差异研究和倡议以及联合研究教育在拟议的资金结束时，开发更强大的美洲原住民生物医学队伍。在此期间，NACP 将使亚利桑那州的美洲原住民更加接近癌症健康公平。
