The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is offering this grant to solicit applications from institutions and organizations to serve as NCORP Research Bases within the newly established Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP). This grant is for the purpose of creating an integrated national network that builds upon prior NCI community initiatives like CCOP and NCCCP. NCORP’s core mission is to design and conduct clinical trials focused on cancer prevention, control, screening, and post-treatment surveillance. It also aims to advance cancer care delivery research, improve patient and provider access to trials conducted under the National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN), and integrate health disparity research questions into all studies. This funding supports comprehensive community-based cancer research efforts.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits applications from institutions/organizations to participate in the National Cancer Institute’s Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP) as NCORP Research Bases. The goal of NCORP is to build upon the scope and activities of NCI’s previously supported community networks, the Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) which includes CCOP community sites (CCOPs), Minority-Based CCOP sites (MB-CCOPs), and CCOP Research Bases, and NCI’s Community Cancer Centers Program (NCCCP) by establishing a single community-based research program. NCORP will be an integrated national network to: 1) design and conduct cancer prevention, control, and screening/post-treatment surveillance clinical trials; 2) design and conduct cancer care delivery research; 3) enhance patient and provider access to treatment and imaging clinical trials conducted under the reorganized National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN); and 4) integrate disparity research questions into clinical trials and cancer care delivery research. |
