The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a funding opportunity titled "Mechanisms that Impact Cancer Risk with Use of Incretin Mimetics (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)" aimed at promoting research into the effects of incretin mimetics on cancer risk. This initiative seeks to support preclinical and patient-based studies that explore the mechanisms by which these agents, including GLP-1 and dual GLP-1/GIP-1 receptor agonists, may influence cancer risk, particularly in relation to obesity-related cancers. The funding is available to a wide range of eligible applicants, including various educational institutions and organizations, with no cost-sharing requirement, and projects can span up to five years. Interested applicants should note that the application deadline is January 7, 2027, and can find more information by contacting NIH Grants Information at grantsinfo@nih.gov or visiting the opportunity's webpage at https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-25-069.html.
