    Description

    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a funding opportunity titled "Advancing Translation of Long-Acting Strategies for HIV and HIV-Associated Co-infections (AT LASt)" aimed at supporting the development of long-acting/sustained release (LA/SR) technologies for the prevention and treatment of HIV and associated co-infections such as tuberculosis (TB), hepatitis B (HBV), and hepatitis C (HCV). This initiative seeks to fund preclinical activities that will advance these technologies toward submission of Investigational New Drug (IND) applications to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), with a focus on ensuring safety and efficacy through rigorous studies. The program is particularly significant as it addresses public health challenges related to infectious diseases that disproportionately affect individuals living with HIV, and it will provide approximately $4 million to support 3-5 awards, with applications due by March 14, 2025. For further inquiries, interested applicants can contact NIH Grants Information at grantsinfo@nih.gov.
