Presentation Transcript

  1. Cancer and Hematology Clinical Research Program and Translational Research Core

  2. About the CHCRP • Founded in 1991 • Cancer and Hematology-based Trials: • Cancer Treatment, Prevention or Early Detection • Symptom Management (symptoms caused by disease or by treatments) • Quality of Life of cancer patients • Cancer Care Delivery (examples: Patient Navigation, Disparities, compliance tools) • Pre-clinical Research (cellular and molecular studies)

  3. Scope of Cancer Research • Cancer Research is not limited to oncology programs. Cancer can be an area of research in many different fields: • All cancer research from ANY department must be reviewed by the cancer program.  This includes any trial involving patients with cancer or trials relating to cancer prevention or detection. Ideally this should be done early in the process to obtain guidance and to avoid delays. • IRB applications for all studies involving cancer must be routed to Dr. Kulke in INSPIR for review and sign-off. • Translational Research Core (TRC) The TRC has recently been developed to allow researchers to obtain specimens and data for their research. Proposals must be submitted to Dr. Kulke for review and approval.

  4. How CHCRP can be a resource to others • Infrastructure in place with experience in: • Conducting complex clinical trials • Recruiting, consenting and enrolling diverse population utilizing available resources (interpreter use, patient navigation, individualized participant education, confirming understanding & compliance ability) • Resource utilization – frequent assessment of program needs/workloads • Successful audits • Each audit is considered a valuable learning experience, allowing us to incorporate new ideas into our standard procedures • Expertise in utilizing Velos to ensure research billing compliance • Regulatory Requirements • Budget development/anticipating needs • Protocol development (including ICFs, patient materials and protocol coordination tools)

  5. Resources • bumc.bu.edu/clinicaltrials • Site is updated monthly and includes: • Program Contact Information • Current list of active clinical and non-clinical trials • Enrollment and Status Update Forms
