Description

This Notice highlights interest in receiving investigator-initiated grant applications addressing the effects of alcohol on human health across the cancer control continuum.Research encouraged through this notice includes, but is not limited to, studies that:
- Address communicating uncertainty and complexity in relation to alcohol, cancer, and health outcomes at multiple levels;
- Understand and improve patient-provider communication, including identification of barriers, with patients regarding alcohol and cancer in both primary and specialty care;
- Address effects of warning labels on all alcohol-containing products in relation to alcohol and cancer prevention;-Improve estimates of dose-response relationships between alcohol consumption and cancer in humans and/or animal models;
- Examine alcohol effects alone and in concert with other risk factors in humans such as tobacco use on cancer comorbidities, quality of life, and mortality to improve intervention efforts;
- Develop and improve measures of alcohol-related behaviors and attitudes as they relate to cancer over the life course;
- Examine effects of light and moderate alcohol consumption on aging trajectories and diagnosis and treatment of cancer in the elderly to identify strategies to limit alcohol exposure;
- Examine interactions between alcohol consumption and energy balance as it relates to cancer prevention and control;
- Evaluate and model effects of alcohol-related policy on the cancer burden in diverse populations;
- Examine disparities in alcohol consumption patterns and the relationship to cancer in humans by race/ethnicity, socioeconomic factors, and sexual and gender minority status;
- Test innovative approaches to the dissemination and implementation of proven alcohol cessation interventions in diverse cancer survivor populations and settings;
- Examine risk of cancers following drinking reduction or cessation;
- Explore decision-making processes regarding alcohol consumption by patients and caregivers before and along the cancer care continuum;
- Increase understanding of mechanisms linking alcohol consumption, cancer treatment effectiveness, and risk of recurrence or second cancers to identify targets for intervention; and
- Examine alcohol use post-diagnosis in relation to cancer treatment, prognosis, recurrence, and second primary tumors to identify targets for interventions.
