CANCER CONTROL PROGRAM PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The scientific goals of the Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center (CFCCC) Cancer Control (CC) Program are to foster and facilitate research that identifies and reduces cancer risk and improves cancer outcomes and quality of life for patients and survivors in the CFCCC Catchment Area and beyond. The CC Program contributes to the overall mission of the CFCCC by strengthening the knowledge base for developing, implementing, evaluating, and disseminating strategies to our community to prevent and reduce cancer incidence, mortality, and morbidity. CC members work closely with the Office of Community Outreach and Engagement (COE) and provide leadership and guidance in conducting population-based studies and clinical trials. CC members play an important role in translating discoveries to the population. The CC Program Specific Aims are to identify, understand, and control risk factors to prevent cancer and improve outcomes through diagnosis, treatment and interventions to improve survivorship. CC members conduct research that spans the cancer control continuum. Researchers examine genomic and environmental influences on cancer; design, implement, and evaluate clinical trials to increase cancer screening; develop and assess innovative approaches to improve quality of life in children, adolescents, and young adults with cancer; test novel biobehavioral interventions in cancer survivors; conduct clinical trials to improve outcomes and prevent recurrence; and work to reduce disparities that impact those living within our community and beyond.
