Description: Purpose. The Division of Cancer Prevention (DCP), National Cancer Institute (NCI), announces the continuation of the established program known as Minority-Based Community Clinical Oncology Program (Minority-Based CCOP). This program allows practicing oncologists who serve large minority populations to participate in the NCI-sponsored clinical trials. The purpose of this program is to support, as a national resource, research activities of physicians involved in the care of minorities who are eligible to participate in NCI-sponsored cancer prevention, control, and treatment clinical trials. The NCI clinical trials program supports Minority-Based CCOP groups by providing access to clinical trials in cancer centers, major university centers, and community programs. The linkage of minority cancer patients/participants to the current clinical trials network facilitates the transfer of new research advancements in cancer prevention/control/treatment practices to minority communities and their physicians. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH U10 cooperative agreement award mechanism.
