Abstract The primary aim of this proposal is to improve the quality of life for oncology patients by educating a cohort of oncology professionals who have the knowledge and skills to act as leaders for the safe and evidence-based integration of complementary therapies into conventional oncology care, education, and research. The quality of life of cancer survivors is negatively affected by symptoms resulting from cancer biology and cancer treatment. Treating these symptoms has often proven difficult, as there is both a lack of treatments for certain symptoms, and inadequate integration into clinical practice of some evidence-based treatments. Complementary therapies offer potential treatments for cancer symptoms and around 46% of cancer patients already use some type of complementary therapies to improve their quality of life. Despite the high utilization of complementary therapies by cancer patients and the growing body of evidence on these therapies, there are currently no training programs for oncology professionals. Consequently, there is a critical need to provide programs in evidence-based complementary cancer therapies to help fill this gap. This proposal seeks to enhance the clinical and leadership skills of oncology professionals through the following Specific Aims: 1. Develop an interdisciplinary short-course in evidenced-based integrative oncology; 2. Train 100 integrative oncology leaders (25 participants per course x 4 courses = 100) via the short-course developed in aim #1; 3. Create partnerships between oncology leaders and complementary practitioners (who provide the majority of complementary oncology services) within their communities (~25 community-based complementary partners per year {one per oncology leader} for a total of 100 over 4 years); 4. Evaluate the impact of this short-course by measuring the process and the outcomes of the various educational activities over the course, and measuring the implementation and outcomes of the capstone projects initiated by participants at their home institutions after completion of the program; and to 5. Disseminate the findings through peer-reviewed journals, presentations at professional meetings, and through both conventional and integrative oncology networks and associations. A variety of evidence-based educational strategies (courses, web-based and print media) will be used to achieve the largest impact and to enhance project sustainability. Extensive process and outcome evaluation strategies will be used to measure the effectiveness of these educational efforts.

抽象的 该提案的主要目的是通过教育一系列人群来改善肿瘤学患者的生活质量 具有知识和技能的肿瘤学专业人员，可以作为安全和循证的领导者 将互补疗法整合到常规肿瘤学护理，教育和研究中。质量 癌症幸存者的生命受到癌症生物学和癌症症状的负面影响 治疗。治疗这些症状通常被证明很困难，因为两者都缺乏某些治疗方法 症状，不足地整合到某些循证治疗的临床实践中。 互补疗法为癌症症状和约46％的癌症患者提供了潜在的治疗方法 已经使用某种类型的补充疗法来改善其生活质量。尽管有很高的利用 癌症患者的补充疗法以及这些疗法的越来越多的证据，有 目前没有针对肿瘤专业人士的培训计划。因此，有至关重要的需要 基于证据的补充癌症疗法的计划，以帮助填补这一空白。该提议试图 通过以下特定目标来提高肿瘤学专业人员的临床和领导能力：1。 在基于证据的综合肿瘤学中发展跨学科的短期课程； 2。火车100综合 通过在AIM＃1中开发的短期课程，肿瘤学领导者（每个课程x 4课程= 100）； 3。 在肿瘤学领导者和补充从业者之间建立伙伴关系（他们提供的大多数 社区中的补充肿瘤学服务（约25个基于社区的补充伙伴 每年{每个肿瘤学领导者}，总共4年，总计100个）； 4。评估此短期的影响 通过衡量整个课程中各种教育活动的过程和结果，以及 衡量参与者在家中发起的顶峰项目的实施和结果 计划完成后的机构；到5。通过同行评审的期刊传播发现， 在专业会议上以及通过常规和综合肿瘤网络和 协会。各种基于证据的教育策略（课程，基于网络和印刷媒体）将是 用于实现最大的影响并增强项目的可持续性。广泛的过程和结果 评估策略将用于衡量这些教育工作的有效性。
