项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall mission of the Asian American Network for Cancer Awareness, Research and Training (AANCART) is to reduce cancer health disparities by conducting community-based participatory education, training, and research by, for, and with Asian Americans in Sacramento, CA (also serves as Headquarters); San Francisco, CA; Los Angeles, CA; Seattle, WA; Hawaii (state); and Houston, TX. This Network is a national one, comprised of seven NCI cancer centers and their associated universities, the California Department of Health Services, Chinese Community Health Care Association, and the Hmong Women's Heritage Association. Cumulatively, this Network serves nearly 50 percent of all Asian Americans. Consistent with RFA-CA-05-012, AANCART's deliverables are: (1) Sustenance of a highly interactive Network among AANCART regions to catalyze cancer education for Asian Americans; (2) Establishment of research training programs that address Asian American cancer health disparities; and (3) Process and impact data to document the extent to which specific cancer health disparities are reduced among Cambodians, Chinese, Filipino, Hmong, Korean, and Vietnamese. Examples of Asian American disparities to be addressed include those associated with smoking-related lung and hepatitis B-induced liver cancers, low breast and cervical cancer screening rates, and emerging cancer threats posed by acculturation, diet, and insufficient ethnically-specific representation in clinical trials. Aims will be achieved through both Network-wide and regional activities by the AANCART Steering Committee and involving Asian American-oriented community-based organizations, Cancer Information Service staff, and other supportive entities tied together through past histories of collaboration and memoranda of understanding and letters of support. Universities associated with AANCART, the California Department of Health and the Chinese Community Health Plan are committed to additional support for AANCART.

描述（由申请人提供）：亚裔美国人意识，研究和培训网络（AANCART）的总体使命是通过在加利福尼亚州萨克拉曼多进行基于社区的参与式教育，培训和研究来减少癌症健康差异（也是总部）；加利福尼亚州旧金山；加利福尼亚州洛杉矶；华盛顿州西雅图；夏威夷（州）；和德克萨斯州休斯顿。该网络是一个国家，由七个NCI癌症中心及其相关大学，加利福尼亚州卫生服务部，中国社区卫生保健协会和苗族妇女遗产协会组成。累积地，该网络为所有亚裔美国人中的50％服务。与RFA-CA-05-012一致，Aancart的可交付成果是：（1）Aancart地区之间高度互动的网络来催化亚裔美国人的癌症教育；（2）建立解决亚裔美国癌症健康差异的研究培训计划；（3）过程和影响数据以记录柬埔寨，中国，菲律宾，苗族，韩国和越南人的特定癌症健康差异的程度。要解决的亚裔美国人差异的例子包括与吸烟有关的肺和B型肝炎诱导的肝癌，低乳腺癌和宫颈癌筛查率以及在临床试验中受种族特异性代表性不足所带来的新兴癌症威胁。 Aancart指导委员会将通过网络和区域活动来实现目标，并涉及以亚裔美国人为基础的社区组织，癌症信息服务人员以及其他支持实体，这些实体是通过过去的合作历史和理解和支持信的纪念活动而捆绑在一起的。与Aancart，加利福尼亚州卫生系和中国社区健康计划相关的大学致力于为Aancart提供更多支持。
