The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a 5-year, $162,160 Project Grant (CFDA 93.398 - Cancer Research Manpower) to The Ohio State University to improve the assessment of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) among Black/African-American cancer patients. The research will involve qualitative interviews with Black cancer patients and their providers to understand barriers and facilitators to completing PROs and social determinants of health (SDH) measures. This knowledge will inform the development and testing of a tailored PRO/SDH tool to enhance the collection of patient-reported data and support more patient-centered cancer care for this population. The project aims to lay the groundwork for a future randomized trial to evaluate the effects of providing PRO/SDH data to cancer care providers on treatment decisions and clinical outcomes.
