Presentation Objectives
Highlight Canadian efforts in developing national consensus building regarding important issues in cancer survivorship
Argue that funding research teams is a good step but not enough to sustain progress
Consider how current efforts might be contribute to international interests

Research Priority: Palliative & EOL Care
In 2003 CIHR launched an aggressive palliative & EOL research initiative to increase research capacity and collaboration with the ultimate objective of creating improvements in the delivery of patient care in Canada.
In 2001/2002, CIHR funded14 projects in the area. The modest capacity of research and similar success of funded palliative care & EOL research projects was a concern to the Canadian palliative care community as well as national research grant funding bodies.
By 2007/2008 vast improvements in funding levels were realized directly as a result of funding of NETS.

Role the RFA played to bring teams together
Members of many of the teams had not previously worked together prior to the RFA.
This RFA played a pivotal role in providing infrastructural support to bring like-minded clinicians and researchers together to begin conceptualizing how to manage difficult clinical problems.
The RFA was essential in bringing teams together. There was little prior capacity to develop a team with participants from across the country. Importantly, several of our team members had excellent expertise but would not have been active in cancer-related work without funding.

So all we need is to create lots of teams right?
In the PC\EOL context:
Collaboration between teams not an original goal Knowledge translation not a key objective but later
added Research panel continues to struggle in regards to
number of applications received A real worry that the efforts in team building may not
result in long-term sustainable research capacity Competition between teams prevalent

Why a Consortium?
Undertake research that otherwise would be difficult: large national/international studies, pooling of unique skills, data
Opportunity for fast turn-around to transfer knowledge to clinical practice
Minimize duplication & competition Greater potential for capacity building

Cancer Survivorship Themes
Canadian Partnership Against Cancer Consensus meeting March 2008: 7 priorities (models, research, KT, care plans/pathways, standards/guidelines, advocacy,
communications) November 2008 Research Priorities (unique populations,
measurement, models, impact of late effects) A recommendation to develop a national consortium to
action research themes Canadian Centre for Applied Research in Cancer Control
(one national research centre)
