The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Community Cancer Centers Program (NCCCP) is a network of hospital cancer centers that serve as a community-based platform to support basic, clinical, and population-based research initiatives across the cancer care continuum-from prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship through end-of-life care. One of the goals of the NCCCP is to increase access to clinical trials in a community setting. Through a strategic partnership between the NCI and participating hospitals, the NCCCP is a hospital-based cancer center network designed to support cancer research, and enhance access to and increase quality of care at community hospitals so more patients benefit from the latest research.
