Area of Science:

  • Health Policy
  • Cancer Research
  • Public Health

Background:

  • The Institute of Medicine (IOM) established the National Cancer Policy Board (NCPB) and later the National Cancer Policy Forum (NCPF) to address cancer policy.
  • These initiatives were primarily funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the IOM's eight-year examination of cancer policy issues.
  • To report on the establishment of the NCPB and NCPF.
  • To discuss factors influencing cancer policy success.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the establishment and activities of the NCPB and NCPF.
  • Analysis of IOM advisory reports and their impact.
  • Case studies of policy and program effects.

Main Results:

  • The NCPB authored IOM advisory reports, while the NCPF focuses on issue identification and exploration.
  • Examples of successful policy influence and effects on public and private sectors are presented.
  • The paper details the evolution of IOM's cancer policy engagement.

Conclusions:

  • The IOM's engagement through the NCPB and NCPF has been instrumental in examining and influencing cancer policy.
  • Understanding the factors contributing to policy success is crucial for future initiatives.
  • The distinction between the NCPB's report authorship and the NCPF's exploratory role is highlighted.
