项目摘要

The North Shore CCOP has evolved over the last one and one-half decades of support into a multi-disciplinary approach for prevention, for cancer control,, and for cancer treatment involving physicians from Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, Westchester, and Connecticut. At the present time, full-time and private medical oncologists pediatric oncologists radiation therapists, surgeons, nurse oncologists, social workers, and other support staff participate at a variety of locations from outside offices to medical institutions. The CCOP has affiliations with five institutions in the New York locations from outside offices to medical institutions. The CCOP has affiliations with five institutions in the New York Metropolitan area to ensure that appropriate populations, including minority groups, are accessible to NCI sponsored studies. Of note, the North Shore CCOP is the only NCI sponsored clinical oncologic research program on Long Island with a population in excess of 4 million. Accrual to the CCOP has been excellent with a total of 794.0 treatment credits and 371.2 cancer control credits with 1814 patients enrolled on studies during the last granting period. Accrual has been limited by funding support rather than numbers of potential study candidates. Since the last grant cycle, we have instituted dissemination of CCOP protocols and concepts by telemedicine to the community health care workers and are in the midst of establishing stronger electronic communications via a Web site for use by the CCOP physicians The basic structure of the CCOP has continued as two sections: 1) Adult Oncology, and 2) Pediatric Oncology based upon the unique needs of these differing groups of patients. The current research bases include: CALGB, NSABP, URCC, RTOG, and CCG. Members of the CCOP have been active in the various research bases' activities and have served as members of co-operative group committees, auditors, and as principal investigators with main author publications for national studies. In addition, the North Shore CCOP has been instrumental in cancer control activities in two cooperative groups (CALGB, CCG) and also at a local level. A recent merger between the North Shore Health System and the Long Island Jewish Medical Center has broaded the access to additional patients including minority populations. We expect that continued support of this program will allow the CCOP is expand its activities to additional groups of patients on Long Island both for treatment and co and cancer control. Continued support will allow optimal care to be provided for the oncology patients in their home environment and ultimately reduce morbidity and mortality from these diseases due to the availability of NCI sponsored trials.

经过过去十五年的支持，北岸 CCOP 已发展成为预防、癌症控制和癌症治疗的多学科方法，涉及拿骚、萨福克、皇后区、威彻斯特和康涅狄格州的医生。目前，全职和私人肿瘤内科医生、儿科肿瘤科医生、放射治疗师、外科医生、护士肿瘤科医生、社会工作者和其他支持人员在从外部办公室到医疗机构的各种地点参与其中。 CCOP 与纽约的五个机构有联系，从外部办事处到医疗机构。 CCOP 与纽约都会区的五个机构有联系，以确保包括少数群体在内的适当人群能够参与 NCI 资助的研究。值得注意的是，北岸 CCOP 是长岛唯一由 NCI 赞助的临床肿瘤学研究项目，人口超过 400 万。 CCOP 的累积情况非常好，在上一个授予期间，共有 1814 名患者参加了研究，总共获得了 794.0 个治疗学分和 371.2 个癌症控制学分。应计项目受到资金支持的限制，而不是潜在研究候选人数量的限制。自上一个拨款周期以来，我们已通过远程医疗向社区卫生保健工作者传播 CCOP 协议和概念，并正在通过网站建立更强大的电子通信，供 CCOP 医生使用。 CCOP 的基本结构已继续分为两个部分：1）成人肿瘤学，2）基于这些不同患者群体的独特需求的儿童肿瘤学。目前的研究基地包括：CALGB、NSABP、URCC、RTOG、CCG。 CCOP 成员积极参与各个研究基地的活动，并担任过合作小组委员会成员、审计员以及国家研究主要作者出版物的主要研究者。此外，北岸 CCOP 在两个合作团体（CALGB、CCG）以及地方一级的癌症控制活动中发挥了重要作用。北岸卫生系统和长岛犹太医疗中心最近的合并扩大了对包括少数族裔在内的更多患者的治疗范围。我们预计，对该计划的持续支持将使 CCOP 能够将其活动扩展到长岛的其他患者群体，以进行治疗以及癌症控制。持续的支持将使肿瘤患者在其家庭环境中获得最佳护理，并由于 NCI 赞助的试验的可用性而最终降低这些疾病的发病率和死亡率。
