This NCI grant is for institutions and organizations to serve as accrual groups for the National Cancer Institute-supported Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) Network. Established in 1983, the CCOP aims to accelerate the development of cancer interventions by increasing patient enrollment in clinical trials. It also seeks to foster quality cancer care within communities by promoting the adoption of clinical trial results, and to enhance the involvement of minority and underserved populations in cancer research. CCOP Groups specifically comprise community oncologists responsible for accruing patients and participants to NCI-approved clinical trials, thereby supporting a crucial aspect of national cancer research initiatives.

| Description: | This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) solicits applications from institutions/organizations that propose to serve as accrual groups for the NCI-supported Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) Network. CCOP was established in 1983 to develop and conduct state-of-the-art cancer prevention, control and treatment clinical trials with significant involvement of community oncologists and populations they serve. The CCOP Network mission includes: (1) accelerating development of interventions to prevent and treat cancer and its symptoms by increasing accrual to trials; (2) fostering quality care in the community through adoption of results from clinical trials; and (3) increasing the involvement of minority and underserved patient/participant populations in cancer clinical trials and associated research. The CCOP Network consists of three components each with its own FOA. The components are as follows: CCOP Groups (also referred to as CCOPs, covered by this FOA), Minority-Based CCOP (MBCCOP) Groups, and CCOP Research Bases. A CCOP Group encompasses community oncologists who accrue patients/participants to NCI-approved clinical trials. The MBCCOP Groups are formed by oncologists in communities with a high proportion of minority patients that accrue patients/participants to NCI-approved clinical trials. These trials are designed and conducted by the CCOP Research Bases, which also manage and analyze the data, and report the results. CCOP Research Bases must be located either at an NCI-supported Clinical Cooperative Group or at an NCI-designated Cancer Center. |
