Addressing Barriers to Healthcare Transitions for Survivors of Childhood and Adolescent Cancers (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
The "Addressing Barriers to Healthcare Transitions for Survivors of Childhood and Adolescent Cancers" grant aims to fund research for developing and testing interventions that improve the transition from pediatric to adult healthcare for childhood and adolescent cancer survivors, with the goal of establishing best practices for their long-term care.
Description
Through this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), the NCI intends to support multi-level intervention studies that address individual and system level barriers to transition from pediatric to adult care for survivors of childhood and adolescent cancers. The goal of this opportunity is to support the development and testing of interventions and strategies that promote high-quality transitional care and continued engagement of survivors of childhood and adolescent cancers to ensure these survivors receive appropriate surveillance and care into adulthood. Overall, it is anticipated that this research will provide critical evidence for establishing best practices and standards of care that can be widely disseminated and adopted.
