ncurses define no key_x macro for ctl+anything, so you're on your own.
 On my combination of xorg, xterm, and ncurses, ctl-home sends 01022
(x'212); ctl-end sends 01015 (x'20d').  You'll have to discover
whatever escape sequence is generated by the hardware and set up your
a termcap mapping to suit your taste.  Highly non-portable, of course.
