The National Cancer Institute has recognized the need for minority participation in clinical trials as a means to enhance cancer outcomes in minority populations and to validate the outcomes of clinical research. In 1994, Louisiana State University Medical Center in New Orleans was granted an award by the National Cancer Institute to establish a Minority-Based Clinical Community Oncology Program. This article outlines the Louisiana State University's Minority Based Clinical Community Oncology Program. During the initial funding period, the Program has established a regional network of cancer physicians and healthcare professionals to provide state-of-the-art cancer treatment and prevention trials to South Louisiana for indigent and minority populations who otherwise would have little access to this care. Because of the success of the Program in patient accrual to both cancer treatment and cancer prevention and control protocol trials, Louisiana State University Medical Center has applied for a continuation of funding for the Program for the next five years.
美国国立癌症研究所已经认识到少数族裔参与临床试验的必要性，这是改善少数族裔人群癌症治疗效果以及验证临床研究结果的一种方式。1994年，位于新奥尔良的路易斯安那州立大学医学中心获得了美国国立癌症研究所的一项奖励，以设立一个基于少数族裔的临床社区肿瘤项目。本文概述了路易斯安那州立大学基于少数族裔的临床社区肿瘤项目。在最初的资助期内，该项目建立了一个由癌症医生和医疗保健专业人员组成的区域网络，为路易斯安那州南部的贫困和少数族裔人群提供最先进的癌症治疗和预防试验，否则这些人群几乎无法获得这种治疗。由于该项目在癌症治疗以及癌症预防与控制方案试验的患者招募方面取得了成功，路易斯安那州立大学医学中心已申请为该项目在未来五年继续提供资金。
