This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) provides $327,496 to the University of Missouri System to design and develop implementation interventions aimed at improving the quality of active surveillance for men with favorable-risk prostate cancer. The project, awarded on September 13, 2024, seeks to: 1) assess key implementation determinants, 2) design and tailor interventions to support quality active surveillance in urology practices, and 3) evaluate the potential to expand the interventions beyond the original geographic region. The goal is to address the issue of insufficient monitoring during active surveillance, which can expose men to avoidable cancer progression and associated morbidity. The research will leverage the resources of the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative to develop and plan a large-scale trial of the implementation interventions.
