NRG Oncology NCORP Pilot Projects
NRG Oncology NCORP is soliciting PILOT projects for applications focused on NRG NCORP Cancer Prevention and Control (CPC) priorities that will provide data that will directly lead to future Phase II-III CPC concepts. As put forward in our core grant, CPC priorities for funding are:

•  Cancer prevention research aimed at identifying and evaluating interventions to reduce the risk and incidence of cancer 
•  Cancer control research aimed at reducing the incidence and co-morbidity of cancer and its treatment focused on the four symptomatic management  themes: neurotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, lymphedema, and inflammation (including cancer-related fatigue)
•  Survivorship and palliative care interventions aimed at reducing toxicity and symptom burden, and improving quality of life (QoL)
•  Cancer disparity research, in collaboration with our Health Disparities Research (HDR) Program, focused on efforts to increase the participation of  minorities and underserved populations in CPC studies
•  Integral to these priorities, are the establishment of biospecimen repositories for molecular studies.
