Dept. of the Army -- USAMRAA
The Department of the Army -- USAMRAA has posted a grant opportunity titled "DOD Pancreatic Cancer, Focused Pilot Award". This grant aims to support impactful and innovative concepts in pancreatic cancer research that can lead to significant advancements in patients' overall quality of life. The grant is focused on two patient-centered areas of research: access to healthcare and mental health/cancer-related outcomes and quality of life. The grant encourages studies on behaviors affecting access to healthcare, correlations between mental health and cancer outcomes, strategies to overcome psycho-social issues, behavioral studies on quality of life and decision-making, and development of nutritional or educational interventions for symptom management. The grant does not require preliminary data but expects a well-formulated, testable hypothesis based on strong scientific rationale. Clinical research studies are allowed, but interventional clinical trials, basic research, and preclinical animal studies are not supported. The proposed research should have a significant impact on improving outcomes and quality of life for individuals with pancreatic cancer. Innovation in study concept, research methods or technology, and adaptations of existing methods or technologies is highly encouraged. The grant has an estimated total program funding of $1,280,000 and expects to make 4 awards. The closing date for applications is October 3, 2024.

DOD Pancreatic Cancer, Translational Research Partnership Award
Active
Dept. of the Army -- USAMRAA
The Department of the Army, through the US Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA), has posted a federal grant opportunity titled "DOD Pancreatic Cancer, Translational Research Partnership Award". This grant aims to support partnerships between clinicians and research scientists to accelerate the translation of promising ideas in pancreatic cancer towards clinical applications. The Translational Research Partnership Award seeks to foster collaborations between two independent investigators to address a central problem or question in pancreatic cancer that would be difficult to achieve through separate efforts. One partner in the collaboration must be a research scientist, while the other partner must be a clinician investigator. The award encourages the inclusion of experts from outside the pancreatic cancer field. The proposed projects should demonstrate the potential to have a significant impact on pancreatic cancer research and/or patient care. They should also leverage clinical information to address knowledge gaps, validate research findings, expand upon transformative results, and investigate novel findings. The application should provide evidence of the reciprocal transfer of information between basic and clinical science. The Translational Research Partnership Award requires the availability of necessary specimens, data, and/or interventions. Preliminary data relevant to pancreatic cancer and the proposed research project are required, although they do not necessarily need to be derived from studies of pancreatic cancer. The success of the project relies on the unique skills and contributions of each partner, and the proposed study must include plans for communication, coordination of research progress and results, and data transfer. This grant opportunity has an estimated total program funding of $4,800,000 and expects to make four awards. The closing date for applications is October 3, 2024. For more information and application submission requirements, interested applicants can contact the CDMRP Help Desk at help@eBRAP.org or by phone at 301-682-5507. By providing a comprehensive summary of this federal grant notice, we hope to support potential applicants in understanding the purpose and requirements of the DOD Pancreatic Cancer, Translational Research Partnership Award.
