Technological advances are altering the way cancer research is conducted and cancer care is delivered, and the recently passed healthcare reform legislation has many implications for cancer care. There is a growing emphasis on molecularly targeted therapies, information technology (IT), and patient-centered care, and clinical cancer research has become a global endeavor. At the same time, there are concerns about shrinking research budgets and escalating costs of cancer care. Considering such changes, the National Cancer Policy Forum (NCPF) of the Institute of Medicine held a National Cancer Policy Summit on October 25, 2010. The Summit convened key leaders in the cancer community to identify and discuss the most pressing policy issues in cancer research and cancer care. The National Cancer Policy Summit: Opportunities and Challenges in Cancer Research and Care is a summary of the summit. The report explores policy issues related to cancer research, the implementation of healthcare reform, delivery of cancer care, and cancer control and public health needs. Expert participants suggested many potential actions to provide patient-centered cancer care, to foster more collaboration, and to achieve other goals to improve research and care. 530 $a Also available in Open Book format via the National Academies Press home page. 650 0 $a Cancer $x Research $z United States $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Cancer $x Treatment $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Cancer $z United States $x Prevention $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Health planning $z United States $v Congresses. 650 12 $a Biomedical Research $z United States $v Congresses. 650 12 $a Neoplasms $z United States $v Congresses. 650 22 $a Neoplasms $x therapy $z United States $v Congresses. 700 1 $a Patlak, Margie. 700 1 $a Nass, Sharyl J. 700 1 $a Balogh, Erin. 710 2 $a National Cancer Policy Forum (U.S.) 710 2 $a Institute of Medicine (U.S.). $b Board on Health Care Services. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825091101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=545B72D6941C11E1A03C60E96AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
