Human papillomavirus (HPV) cofactors for cervical cancer include smoking, multiparity, and oral contraceptive use, but their mechanisms of action are not fully understood. It is also unknown whether cofactors vary by HPV genotypes. The Study to Understand Cervical Cancer Early Endpoints and Determinants (SUCCEED) is a cross-sectional study comprising women referred to the University of Oklahoma from November 2003 to September 2007 for abnormal cervical screening results. Detailed questionnaire data and liquid cytology specimens were collected and the latter was genotyped for HPV using the LINEAR ARRAY HPV Genotyping Test. The present analysis includes women with both questionnaire and HPV data and diagnosed with

Initial psychometric analysis of the PCNeeds is encouraging, but further study of reliability and validity with more diverse respondents is needed.

146 Background: In 2013, the Institute of Medicine report recommended that supportive oncology services be initiated at time of diagnosis. Providers of pediatric cancer care in the Chicagoland community, supported by The Coleman Foundation, sought to define areas for quality improvement of supportive oncology delivery to children. Methods: Focus groups and surveys with clinicians providing pediatric cancer care and supportive services at 14 sites were used to prioritize areas needing improvement. Results: 100% (14/14) of sites participated. Of the eligible sites, 6 were pediatric cancer treatment sites and 8 cancer care community organizations. Sites demonstrated consistent agreement for 8 of the 12 areas of focus for improvement. Over 50% of sites reported areas of focus (table) as important or very important. Conclusions: Sites identified the need for quality improvement in delivery of psychosocial, survivorship and palliative care for pediatric cancer patients. Survey results demonstrate a need for collaboration and efforts to guide care delivery improvement across sites. [Table: see text]
