Description

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is offering a funding opportunity for expanding education on skin lightening products. This grant aims to advance FDA's Office of Minority Health and Health Equity (OMHHE) work with stakeholders and partners to raise awareness about potential risks from skin lightening products containing hydroquinone and/or mercury. The funding opportunity seeks innovative and community-based strategies and activities to strengthen the science base for education and public health awareness on the use of over-the-counter (OTC) skin lightening products. The grant amount is set at $250,000, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity is forecasted for the fiscal year 2024 and is open to unrestricted applicants. For more information, interested parties can contact Terrin Brown, the grantor, at terrin.brown@fda.hhs.gov or 240-402-7610.

Food and Drug Administration
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is offering a federal grant opportunity titled "Evaluating the Cutaneous Pharmacokinetics of Topical Drug Products Using Pharmacokinetic Tomography (U01 Clinical Trial Required)". This grant falls under the category of Consumer Protection and is a Cooperative Agreement type of funding instrument. The grant does not require cost sharing or matching. The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support research and development in non-invasive technologies, specifically quantitative tomography-based methods, to evaluate the rate and extent to which a topically applied drug becomes available at or near a site of action within the skin in vivo. The funded work aims to develop an accurate, sensitive, and reproducible approach to measure the amount of drug present in the skin at various depths below the surface. This approach will be used to monitor the cutaneous pharmacokinetics (PK) of the drug over time. The ultimate goal is to develop a scientifically valid in vivo cutaneous PK-based approach that can efficiently demonstrate the bioequivalence (BE) of topical products. The grant has an award ceiling and floor of $250,000, and it is expected that one award will be made. The eligibility for this grant is unrestricted, meaning any applicant organization can apply. However, each application must be scientifically distinct. The FDA will not accept duplicate or highly overlapping applications under review at the same time. For more information or to apply for this grant opportunity, you can contact Terrin Brown, the grantor, at terrin.brown@fda.hhs.gov or by phone at 240-338-7494. The deadline for this grant is forecasted to be in the fiscal year 2024.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for a Cooperative Agreement titled "Identification and Evaluation of Possible Approaches to Addressing Nitrosamine Impurities in Drugs (U01)". This opportunity falls under the category of Food and Nutrition. The aim of this grant is to improve the safety of human drugs with potential nitrosamine impurity liabilities. The FDA is seeking proposals to conduct research, development, and refinement of translational and implementable practices that will protect the public against nitrosamine risks while ensuring continued safe access to critical therapeutic drugs. The grant recipient will also assess how best to ensure that this research and practices development continues among industry members, non-profits, and/or academic institutions once the FDA funding for this cooperative agreement ends. The grant amount for this opportunity is set at $350,000, with an expected number of awards being 1. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement for applicants. The eligible applicants are unrestricted, meaning any organization can apply. However, applicant organizations may submit more than one application, provided that each application is scientifically distinct.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is offering a federal grant opportunity titled "Improving Predictability of Food-Drug and Drug-Drug Interaction Risks by Utilizing In Vitro Simulated Gastrointestinal Dissolution Model for High-Risk Oral Drug Products (U01) Clinical Trial Optional". This funding opportunity falls under the category of Consumer Protection and is a Cooperative Agreement type of funding instrument. The grant does not require cost sharing or matching. The purpose of this funding opportunity is to examine the utility of an in vitro simulated gastrointestinal (GI) dissolution model for the assessment of in vitro performance of amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) drug products under different clinically relevant conditions. The goal is to develop and validate the in vitro mechanistic methodology to provide an improved understanding of the impact of food and acid reducing agents on the absorption for test and reference listed drug (RLD) drug products, taking into consideration their potentially different formulations and manufacturing. The bio predictive in vitro mechanistic methodology is intended to correlate the in vitro observations to in vivo outcomes, help define types of in vivo bioequivalence (BE) studies needed for ASD drug products, and inform regulatory decision-making related to mitigating the risk of potential failure modes for therapeutic equivalence for high-risk generic oral drug products. The grant has an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $250,000. It is expected that there will be 2 awards given. The eligible applicants for this grant opportunity are unrestricted, meaning any applicant organization may submit an application. However, each application must be scientifically distinct.
