From Action to Impact: Improving Breast Cancer Care in North Carolina

The purpose of this research study is to assess the patient-level, healthcare provider/system-level, and community-level barriers to resolving abnormal mammograms and initiation of treatment of breast cancer in the 3 geographic regions of North Carolina: the greater Charlotte area, the Northwest, and the Northeast. These areas include the following counties: Anson, Cabarrus, Cleveland, Gaston, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Stanly, Union, Edgecombe, Halifax, Nash, Northampton, Wilson , Ashe, Alleghany, Surry, Stokes, Watauga, Wilkes, Yadkin, Forsyth, Avery, Caldwell, Alexander, Iredell, Davie, Davidson, Burke, Catawba, and Rowan. These barriers can include obtainment of biopsies and other diagnostic procedures for resolving abnormal mammograms abnormalities or breast symptoms, access to care providers after breast cancer diagnosis, and initiation of appropriate surgical, chemotherapy, and radiation treatments after diagnosis.

Bladder cancer study with EG-70

This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of EG 70, a gene therapy, which is given inside the bladder, and its effectiveness on eliminating bladder tumors in patients with NMIBC who have failed BCG therapy and have been recommended to have their bladder removed. Giving the study drug inside the bladder is to expose cells in the lining of the bladder, including your cancerous cells, to genes that may cause an immune response inside the bladder and kill the tumor cells.
