## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY 
The purpose of the Administration, Communication, and Planning Core is to assure the coordination of the Dana 
Farber/Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC) Myeloma SPORE components and to provide oversight and leadership 
of the scientific, administrative, and fiscal aspects of the SPORE. The SPORE Directors will oversee the 
administrative coordination of the various clinical and laboratory studies outlined in this Program. They will 
integrate scientific and clinical efforts within and between Projects, and assure the translation of laboratory 
findings to the bedside; and conversely, the initiation of laboratory studies stemming from clinical observations. 
During the prior funding period, the infrastructure has been created to have seamless communication and 
exchange of data between SPORE sites, facilitating collaborative preclinical studies and clinical trials. Multiple 
joint publications, completed and ongoing clinical trials, and the translation of several novel targeted therapies 
from bench to bedside confirm the communication and integration of our efforts. This Core will continue to 
facilitate exchange of information among the SPORE members, as well as the internal and external advisory 
committees. It will provide clinical research nursing support for the proposed clinical trials. In addition, as in the 
previous funding period, a clinical study coordinator will assure appropriate sample acquisition and trafficking. 
The grants administrator will allocate resources in a timely and integrated fashion to facilitate successful 
completion of the proposed studies. The Specific Aims of the Administration, Communication, and Planning Core 
are as follows: 
1. To monitor research progress and plan for the future 
2. To foster collaborative research within the SPORE and between SPOREs 
3. To integrate the Myeloma SPORE into the DF/HCC structure 
4. To provide necessary resources and fiscal oversight 
5. To promote rapid dissemination of significant research findings
