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.

项目摘要/ABSTRCT：总体 美国原住民预防癌症的伙伴关系（NACP）在解决癌症方面具有独特的位置 美国原住民社区的健康不平等。癌症是当地人的第二大死亡原因 45岁以上的美国人。尽管癌症筛查技术有所改善和主要 过去几十年来癌症治疗的发展，部落社区并未从中受益 进步。此外，NIH认识到美洲原住民的代表性最低 生物医学研究人员中代表性不足的群体，这有助于整体癌症健康 这个人群的不平等。 NACP始于2002年，作为北亚利桑那大学之间的合作伙伴关系 （NAU），作为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。总体 NACP的目标是增加NAU的癌症研究和UACC的癌症健康分布能力 尊重现有的并建立新的美国原住民社区伙伴关系。为了满足这些目标， 提出了以下目的：目标1。进行试点研究项目和完整的研究项目，这是 解决美国原住民癌症分布并反映社区的关注；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。创建一个新的共享资源，称为“指导 U54研究者发展到可持续性（指南）”，目的是促进NACP-的过渡 会员，早期研究人员/初级研究人员研究独立性；目标4。扩展和 实施癌症分布研究教育，重点是NAU/UA的美国原住民学生 本科和研究生课程；目标5。将社区参与原则整合到所有NACP中 活动，支持伙伴关系研究结果和国家外展网络的传播 美国原住民社区的倡议。为了实现这些目标，两个完整和一个试点项目是 建议的;两个有美国原住民共同领导者。完整的项目之一和试点项目结合了基本 科学和社区从事研究以解决胃癌和宫颈癌；这些死亡率 在美洲原住民中，癌症较高。我们建议行政，计划和评估， 研究教育，外展和指导核心支持研究项目和整合活动 整个伙伴关系。 NAU和UACC承担机构资金来支持新项目和本地 美国调查人员。该提案的新优先事项是社区参与研究，将影响癌症 筛查率，美国原住民早期研究人员的招聘和心理，授予写作活动 维持以美国原住民为中心的癌症分配研究和计划以及联合研究教育 开发更强大的美国原住民生物医学劳动力的课程。到拟议的资金结束时 时期，NACP将使亚利桑那州的原住民迁移到更接近癌症健康公平的地方。
