DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): South Carolina Cancer Disparities Community Network N's overarching goal is to contribute materially to: understanding the underlying causes of cancer-related health disparities; discovering and developing effective innovations to lower incidence, improving survival, and reducing suffering; delivering these innovations to high-risk populations and moving them to widespread dissemination. We focus on African Americans (AAs) in South Carolina, a group in a region with much higher-than-average cancer incidence and extraordinarily high mortality given incidence. Our goal will be realized by achieving these Specific Aims: 1. to increase the knowledge base needed to understand which biomedical and behavioral procedures are most likely to prevent and control cancer in the high-risk African-American communities in South Carolina; 2. to develop and test interventions that are likely to reduce cancer incidence, downstage disease at time of diagnosis, increase longevity, and improve quality of life in people with cancer; 3. To deliver interventions shown to be effective to places of greatest receptivity and public health need and to evaluate them in terms of generalizability (i.e., external validity); and 4. To disseminate results from successful interventions in the form of intervention "packages" within our communities in South Carolina and to work with national partners to determine and distinguish universal elements that will work most (or at least many) places and others that are more place- and culture-specific. The success of SCCDCN-ll is predicated on: strong community support; dedication to the principles of community-based participatory research; understanding that the philosophical underpinnings and practical methods of applying knowledge are essentially the same across interdisciplinary, translational and community-based participatory research; that the tripartite missions of research, education, and service are both inseparable and highly interdependent; and that training of the next generation of scientists dedicated to the highest ideals of community-based participatory, interdisciplinary, and translational research is necessary in order to reduce, and then finally eliminate cancer-related health disparities.

描述（由申请人提供）：南卡罗来纳州癌症差异社区网络N的总体目标是对：了解与癌症相关健康差异的根本原因；发现并发展有效的创新，以降低发病率，改善生存和减少痛苦；将这些创新交付给高风险人群，并将其转移到广泛的传播中。我们专注于南卡罗来纳州的非洲裔美国人（AAS），该地区的癌症发病率高于平均水平，死亡率非常高。我们的目标将通过实现这些具体目标来实现：1。增加了解哪些生物医学和行为程序所需的知识库，最有可能预防和控制南卡罗来纳州高风险的非裔美国人社区的癌症； 2。开发和测试可能会减少癌症发病率的干预措施，诊断时疾病的下降疾病，增加寿命并改善癌症患者的生活质量； 3。提供显示有效的干预措施，适用于最大的接受度和公共卫生需求，并根据普遍性（即外部有效性）进行评估；和4。以干预措施以干预措施为“包裹”的成功干预措施在我们的南卡罗来纳州的社区中进行传播，并与国家合作伙伴一起确定和区分大多数（或至少很多）范围的普遍要素，以及其他更具特定地点和文化特定的地方。 SCCDCN-LL的成功基于：强大的社区支持；奉献基于社区的参与性研究原则；了解，在跨学科，转化和社区的参与性研究中，了解知识的哲学基础和实用方法基本相同；研究，教育和服务的三方任务都是密不可分的，而且高度相互依存。为了减少，必须对下一代科学家进行培训，这些培训是为了减少与癌症相关的健康差异而最高理想的最高理想。
