About The Position

The Cutaneous Oncology clinical research team supports a diverse portfolio of studies for melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers, including squamous cell, basal cell, and Merkel cell carcinomas. The team partners with specialists across Dermatology, Medical Oncology, Surgical Oncology, and Radiation Oncology to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary care. Our focus includes outpatient, therapeutic cancer clinical trials in phases I–III, including both industry-sponsored and investigator-initiated studies. We also manage noninterventional studies aimed at improving early detection, risk assessment, and long-term survivorship.

The Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) will independently, or with general direction, execute, manage, and coordinate clinical research protocols, as directed by the Clinical Research Manager, Principal Investigator (PI), and/or the Associate Director of Clinical Research Programs for the Early Phase program. The CRC will coordinate the administrative, data, and patient scheduling operations of several concurrent clinical research studies under the guidelines of research protocols and regulatory policies.

Incumbent’s duties may include, but will not be limited to, supporting the management and coordinating the tasks of single or multiple clinical research studies; managing and updating databases to ensure data integrity; acting as intermediary between sponsors, research staff, and various UCSF departments; help assure compliance with all relevant regulatory agencies;; maintaining relevant regulatory documents in partnership with the Regulatory department; reporting study progress to investigators; participating in any internal and external audits or reviews of study protocols; and performing other duties as assigned.

Department Overview:

The UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center (HDFCCC) is one of only two cancer centers in the Bay Area to receive the prestigious designation of “comprehensive” from the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The HDFCCC integrates the work of researchers and clinicians dedicated to four fundamental pursuits: laboratory research into the causes of cancer progression; clinical research to translate new knowledge into viable treatments; compassionate, state-of-the-art patient care; and population research that can lead to improvements in prevention, early detection, and quality-of-life for those living with cancer. The twin pillars of precision medicine and precision population health guide research and treatment at HDFCCC.
