The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is inviting applications for a limited competition grant titled "Caring for OutPatiEnts after Acute Kidney Injury (COPE-AKI) Clinical Centers," which requires a clinical trial. This opportunity aims to extend the COPE-AKI clinical trial consortium for three years, focusing on meeting enrollment targets, completing participant follow-up, and facilitating data analysis to enhance clinical management strategies for patients recovering from acute kidney injury (AKI). The successful completion of this study is expected to inform the development of standard care practices for Stage 2 and 3 AKI survivors, addressing a significant gap in current healthcare. The estimated total program funding is $2.5 million, with three awards anticipated, and interested applicants can reach out to Ivonne Schulman at ivonne.schulman@nih.gov or by phone at 301-435-3350. Key deadlines include the synopsis posting on April 1, 2026, application closing on July 1, 2026, and the anticipated project start date on February 1, 2027.
