The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is offering the Community Clinical Oncology Program (U10) grant. This grant aims to support institutions and organizations contributing to the NCI-supported Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) Network. The primary purpose is to develop and conduct advanced cancer prevention, control, and treatment clinical trials, significantly involving community oncologists and the populations they serve. This initiative seeks to accelerate the development of cancer interventions by increasing trial participation, foster quality community care through the adoption of clinical trial outcomes, and enhance the involvement of minority and underserved patient populations in cancer research. Applicants would become part of a network comprising CCOP Groups and CCOP Research Bases, utilizing the NIH U10 cooperative agreement mechanism.

| Description: | Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) solicits applications from institutions/organizations that propose to contribute to the mission of the NCI-supported Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) Network, which 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 two types of components, CCOP Groups (also referred to as CCOPs) and CCOP Research Bases. A CCOP Group encompasses community oncologists who 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. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH U10 cooperative agreement award mechanism. |
