- Federal Grant Award Summary The National Cancer Institute awarded the University of Michigan $682,272 under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) on September 1, 2025, for a two-year project (completion date August 31, 2027) to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a multifaceted electronic health record (EHR)-integrated mobile health intervention designed to reduce post-operative readmissions following radical cystectomy. The intervention consists of an...
- The National Cancer Institute awarded Michigan State University Henry Ford Health+Michigan State University Health Sciences $503,896 on August 1, 2026, under the Cancer Biology Research program (CFDA 93.396) to investigate the role of fibroblast glutamate metabolism in immunosuppression in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The project runs through July 31, 2031, with work performed in East Lansing, Michigan. The Cancer Biology Research program funds fundamental research on cancer causation and...
- The National Cancer Institute awarded Regents of the University of Michigan $785,278 on August 14, 2026, under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) to develop and evaluate the efficacy of the MI Sleep Coach App, a mobile cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) intervention designed specifically for cancer survivors. Sleep disturbances affect over 50 percent of breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer survivors and are associated with negative effects on physical and...
- The National Cancer Institute awarded Wayne State University $398,544 on August 14, 2026, under the Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research program (CFDA 93.394) to build and test a clinic-based sleep care pathway for oncology patients with sleep disorders. The project, titled ONC-SLEEP COLLABORATIVE: COMISA COLLABORATIVE CARE INTEGRATION IN ONCOLOGY, addresses comorbid insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (COMISA) in cancer patients through a team-based collaborative care model. Aim 1...
- Federal Grant Award Summary Michigan State University (through its Henry Ford Health+Michigan State University Health Sciences partnership) received a $153,278 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) effective July 3, 2025, with completion expected June 30, 2027. The award supports the development of a Dre-Rox recombination-based Genetically Engineered Mouse Model (GEMM) for NUT carcinoma, a rare but aggressive...
- The National Cancer Institute awarded The MGH Institute of Health Professions, Inc. $696,498 on May 1, 2026, under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) to develop and optimize a multicomponent intervention for improving functional recovery and participation in life roles among breast cancer survivors. The research uses the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework to systematically test three remotely delivered intervention components: priority elicitation to...
- The National Institutes of Health National Cancer Institute awarded Wayne State University $155,000 on May 1, 2026, under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) to investigate multi-level predictors of diagnostic follow-up attendance after an abnormal cervical cancer screen. The project will identify individual-level and clinic-level barriers and facilitators to diagnostic follow-up completion among women who receive abnormal cervical cancer screening results. Current...
The National Cancer Institute awarded Michigan State University (Henry Ford Health+Michigan State University Health Sciences) $185,881 on September 1, 2026, under the Cancer Research Manpower program (CFDA 93.398) to conduct a pilot trial testing digital strategies to increase patient-reported outcome (PRO) assessment completion among cancer patients. The funded research, titled "Promoting Patient Reporting of Outcome Measures Through Technology Integrated Self-Management and Engagement (PROMISE)," addresses low completion rates for PRO assessments in clinical oncology settings. The study will randomize 78 patients undergoing systemic therapy for head and neck or lung cancer into control and intervention arms. Control participants will complete existing PROMIS assessments (pain interference, physical function, fatigue, depression) integrated within Epic electronic health records and receive a thank you message. Intervention participants will complete the same PROMIS assessments plus nine patient-reported outcome Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE) symptom items most prevalent in cancer therapy, along with evidence-based self-management strategies delivered through a Computerized Intervention Authoring System integrated within Epic. The central hypothesis is that adding cancer-specific symptom tracking and self-management guidance will improve PRO assessment completion rates. Performance will occur at Michigan State University's East Lansing, Michigan location from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2031. The award supports training and research activities aligned with the National Cancer Program's priorities.
