Our goal is to facilitate the implementation, conduct, and quality assurance monitoring of clinical trials. We support cancer control, chemoprevention, and treatment clinical trials. The treatment trials are primarily Phase III trials from the Minority Based Community Clinical Oncology Program. The key responsibilities of the Core are: (1) recruitment; (2) enrollment; (3) data management; (4) compliance; (5) patient adherence; and (6) follow up. The Core’s responsibility also includes addressing the regulatory issues associated with clinical trials.
