RESEARCH - IN THIS AGE OF SCIENTIFIC PROMISE, FEDERAL FUNDS FOR CANCER RESEARCH ARE DECLINING. FULFILLING THE PROMISE OF TODAY'S ADVANCES REQUIRES FUNDING FOR RESEARCH PROJECTS AND SUPPORT FOR INVESTIGATORS WHO WISH TO PURSUE A CAREER IN CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL CANCER RESEARCH. WITHOUT CONTINUED, WELL-TARGETED RESEARCH, THERE WOULD BE NO MEANINGFUL PROGRESS. CCF PRIDES ITSELF ON ITS STANDARDS FOR SCIENTIFIC RIGOR, IMPLEMENTING A MULTISTAGE PEER REVIEW PROCESS WITH THE PARTICIPATION OF GLOBALLY RECOGNIZED SCIENTISTS, ONCOLOGISTS, AND BIOSTATISTICIANS IN THE SELECTION OF MERITORIOUS RESEARCH FOR FUNDING. SINCE 1984, CCF AND ASCO HAVE FUNDED MORE THAN $83 MILLION IN CANCER RESEARCH GRANTS TO NEARLY A THOUSAND RECIPIENTS. IN 2013, CCF AWARDED 60 RESEARCH GRANTS. CCF FUNDS THE ENTIRE SPECTRUM OF RESEARCH ACTIVITIES RELATED TO CANCER PREVENTION, SCREENING, TREATMENT, AND OUTCOMES RESEARCH IN ALL CANCER TYPES, AND SUPPORTS PROGRESS BY FUNDING CANCER RESEARCHERS AT ALL STAGES OF THEIR CAREERS, ENABLING ONCOLOGY'S BEST AND BRIGHTEST TO PURSUE PROMISING RESEARCH.

QUALITY AND ACCESS TO CARE - REMARKABLE ADVANCES IN CANCER MEDICINE ARE OCCURRING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY, YET THE FULL PROMISE OF SUCH PROGRESS CANNOT BE REALIZED UNTIL HIGH-QUALITY CANCER CARE IS AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE. CCF IS KEENLY AWARE OF THE POTENTIALLY FATAL DIVIDE BETWEEN THOSE WITH ACCESS TO THE FRUITS OF RESEARCH AND TIMELY CARE AND THOSE WITHOUT. WE SEEK TO CONFRONT THESE DISPARITIES AND IMPROVE THE OUTLOOK FOR EVERY PERSON TOUCHED BY CANCER BY SUPPORTING PROGRAMS THAT INCREASE ACCESS TO CARE IN ALL COMMUNITIES, INCLUDING THOSE UNDERSERVED. THE QUALITY AND ACCESS TO CARE PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES SUPPORTED BY CCF IN 2013 INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:CANCERLINQ; THIS GROUND-BREAKING HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INITIATIVE WILL UNLOCK AND ANALYZE CANCER CARE DATA, FEEDING NEAR REAL-TIME CONCLUSIONS AND GUIDANCE BACK TO PHYSICIANS. CANCERLINQ WILL ACHIEVE HIGHER QUALITY, HIGHER-VALUE CANCER CARE WITH BETTER OUTCOMES FOR PATIENTS. THIS EFFORT IS INTENDED TO TRANSFORM THE WAY ONCOLOGISTS PRACTICE, LEARN, AND INTERACT WITH THEIR PATIENTS. STATE/REGIONAL AFFILIATE PROGRAM - THE ASCO STATE/REGIONAL AFFILIATE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ADDRESS ISSUES IN THE PRACTICE OF ONCOLOGY ON THE LOCAL LEVEL. THE PROGRAM INCLUDES FACILITATION OF INTERACTION AMONG ASCO AND 48 STATE OR REGIONAL ONCOLOGY SOCIETIES THAT HAVE ACCESS TO THE SOCIETY'S EXPERTISE AND GUIDANCE ON WAYS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR ORGANIZATIONS, ENHANCE THEIR EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES, AND PROVIDE ADVOCACY SUPPORT, EDUCATION AND RESOURCES ON PRACTICE-RELATED ISSUES, AND A WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT TOOL.DIVERSITY IN ONCOLOGY INITIATIVE - THE CCF GRANTS AND AWARDS PROGRAM PROVIDES FUNDING FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF AWARD OPPORTUNITIES FOR ONCOLOGY FELLOWS, CLINICAL PRACTICES, ANDINTERNATIONAL RESEARCHERS. ONE OF THE PROGRAMS OFFERED THROUGH CCF IS THE DIVERSITY IN ONCOLOGY INITIATIVE. THE DIVERSITY IN ONCOLOGY INITIATIVE WAS STRUCTURED TO FACILITATE THE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION OF INDIVIDUALS FROM POPULATIONS UNDERREPRESENTED IN MEDICINE TO CANCER CAREERS, WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF CLINICAL PRACTITIONERS AND INVESTIGATORS.IN 2013, $111,000 PROVIDED TWO PROGRAMS FOR INDIVIDUALS INTERESTED OR CURRENTLY PRACTICING IN THE ONCOLOGY FIELD:MEDICAL STUDENT ROTATION - THE MEDICAL STUDENT ROTATION (MSR), PROVIDES 8- TO 10-WEEK CLINICAL OR CLINICAL RESEARCH ONCOLOGY ROTATIONS FOR U.S. MEDICAL STUDENTS FROM POPULATIONS UNDERREPRESENTED IN MEDICINE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN PURSUING ONCOLOGY AS A CAREER. IN 2013, $102,000 PROVIDED 12 MSRS.RESIDENT TRAVEL AWARD - THE RESIDENT TRAVEL AWARD PROVIDES FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR RESIDENTS FROM UNDERREPRESENTED POPULATIONS TO ATTEND ASCO'S ANNUAL MEETING. THE INTENTION OF THIS AWARD IS TO ATTRACT RESIDENTS FROM UNDERREPRESENTED POPULATIONS TO A POSSIBLE CAREER IN ONE OF THE ONCOLOGY SPECIALTIES. THIS TRAVEL AWARD WILL ALLOW THE RECIPIENTS TO TRAVEL TO THE ASCO ANNUAL MEETING, WHERE THEY WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MEET ONCOLOGISTS AND TO UNDERSTAND THE CAREER POSSIBILITIES IN THE AREA. IN 2013, $9,000 FUNDED 6 RTAS.ALTHOUGH A NUMBER OF PROGRAMS EXIST TO RECRUIT INDIVIDUALS UNDERREPRESENTED IN MEDICINE, FEW OF THESE PROGRAMS FOCUS SPECIFICALLY ON RECRUITMENT TO CLINICAL ONCOLOGY. ULTIMATELY, IT IS HOPED THAT INCREASING DIVERSITY IN THE CLINICAL ONCOLOGY PROFESSION WILL LEAD TO INCREASED AND IMPROVED CANCER CARE FOR UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS AS WELL AS INCREASED RESEARCH ON HEALTH DISPARITIES.

CURRENT DISEASE-SPECIFIC FACT SHEETS INCLUDE: BREAST, COLORECTAL, LUNG, AND PROSTATE CANCERS AND ARE ALSO AVAILABLE IN SPANISH. EACH FACT SHEET INCLUDES AN OVERVIEW OF THE SUBJECT, TERMS TO KNOW, AND QUESTIONS TO ASK THE DOCTOR.PATIENT GUIDES- PATIENT GUIDES ARE PRINTED BOOKLETS CONTAININGCOMPREHENSIVE CANCER INFORMATION; INCLUDING AN OVERVIEW OF SPECIFIC CANCER TYPES, SYMPTOMS, DIAGNOSIS, STAGING, TREATMENT, CLINICAL TRIALS, AND AFTER TREATMENT. ONCOLOGY PROFESSIONALS AND PATIENTS EXPLORE THESE CANCER-SPECIFIC BOOKLETS TOGETHER AFTER A DIAGNOSIS OF CANCER. THERE ARE BOOKLETS FOR THE FOUR MOST COMMON TYPES OF CANCER IN THE UNITED STATES: BREAST, COLORECTAL, LUNG, PROSTATE AND ARE AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH.INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS - ASCO AND THE CONQUER CANCER FOUNDATION SHARE AN INTERNATIONAL MISSION TO ENGAGE THE PHYSICIAN AND HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL COMMUNITY ON A GLOBAL SCALE TO IMPROVE CARE TO CANCER PATIENTS AND ENHANCE THE EXCHANGE OF KNOWLEDGE TO FACILITATE ADVANCES IN THE CARE OF PEOPLE WITH CANCER EVERYWHERE. CCF FUNDS SUPPORT INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS INCLUDING EDUCATION, FELLOWSHIP AND GRANT OPPORTUNITIES TO ENABLE ONCOLOGISTS FROM OPPOSITE ENDS OF THE WORLD TO SHARE IDEAS AND BUILD LASTING COLLABORATIONS THAT CAN ENHANCE PATIENT CARE LOCALLY AND GLOBALLY. CCF SUPPORTS THESE PROGRAMS THROUGH ITS INTERNATIONAL PROGRAM MISSION AS WELL AS THROUGH CCF'S OTHER MISSION AREAS (RESEARCH, PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION, PATIENT EDUCATION ANDINFORMATION AND QUALITY AND ACCESS TO CARE).CCF FUNDS SPECIFICALLY SUPPORTING INTERNATIONAL ACTIVITIES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION AWARD (IDEA)-THE INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION AWARD PROVIDES SUPPORT FOR ONCOLOGISTS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE ASCO ANNUAL MEETING AND VISIT A CANCER CENTER IN THE UNITED STATES OR CANADA.

THESE COURSES CAN BE CHOSEN FROM ASCO'S PORTFOLIO OF EDUCATIONAL PRODUCTS, OR DEVELOPED WITH THE COLLABORATION OF VOLUNTEER ONCOLOGISTS.MULTIDISCIPLINARY CANCER MANAGEMENT COURSES- MANY PATIENTS WITH CANCER AROUND THE WORLD SUFFER FROM LACK OF ACCESS TO CANCER SPECIALISTS. THIS NEED IS ACUTE IN LOW-TO-MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES WHERE LACK OF RESOURCES RESULT IN LARGE PATIENT LOADS, STRETCHED FACILITIES AND INADEQUATE SUPPORT FOR ONCOLOGISTS. ASCO INTERNATIONAL'S MULTIDISCIPLINARY CANCER MANAGEMENT COURSES (MCMCS) TEACH THE VALUE OF INTERDISCIPLINARY MANAGEMENT OF CANCER TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL OUTCOMES FOR PATIENTS. THE COURSES PROVIDE FUNDAMENTAL TRAINING FOR PHYSICIANS, NURSES, PATHOLOGISTS AND RESIDENTS IN COUNTRIES WHERE PATIENTS WITH CANCER ARE FREQUENTLY SEEN BY NON-SPECIALISTS. MCMCS TEACH MULTIDISCIPLINARY MANAGEMENT OF THE MOST PREVALENT CANCER TYPES IN THE HOST COUNTRY AND CENTER THE LEARNING ON PATIENTS. CONTENT AND TOPICS ARE TAILORED BASED ON THE NEEDS AND INTEREST OF EACH AUDIENCE AND CAN INCLUDE BREAST, COLON, ANAL CANAL, RECTAL, LUNG, PROSTATE AND HEAD AND NECK CANCERS, AMONG OTHERS. SINCE 2004, NEARLY 3,000 CLINICIANS AND HEALTH CARE WORKERS HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THESE COURSES. IN OVERALL COURSE EVALUATIONS, 70% OF PARTICIPANTS HAVE REPORTED CHANGING PRACTICE AND 87% OF PARTICIPANTS ARE MORE CONFIDENT IN THEIR CARE OF PATIENTS.
