Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY The Aurora NCORP community site will enroll patients into a variety of NCI-sponsored clinical trials. Advocate Health serves approximately 20,000 newly diagnosed adult and pediatric cancer patients annually throughout Wisconsin and Illinois. Specifically, the Aurora NCORP will: • Increase accrual to NCI-sponsored clinical trials in adult and pediatric research. • Expand our trial portfolio to reflect the depth and breadth of NCI-sponsored clinical trials. • Conduct cancer care delivery research that utilizes the expansive resources and expertise available throughout Advocate Health. Ultimately, the Aurora NCORP will involve more patients in clinical research that will lead to improved patient outcomes.
