The purpose of this grant is to support the discovery and development of medications that can prevent and treat opioid and/or psychostimulant use disorders and overdose. The grant involves two phases, UG3 and UH3. The UG3 phase provides support for a project with specific milestones to be accomplished within a 2-year period. The UH3 phase provides funding for 3 years to a project that successfully completes the milestones set in the UG3 phase. Projects that meet their milestones in the UG3 phase will be considered for transition to the UH3 phase. The grant encourages applications that include preclinical or clinical research studies with high impact and quick results to advance medications closer to FDA approval for the prevention and treatment of opioid use disorders and overdose. The compounds to be evaluated can be small molecules or biologics, and they can be tested in pre-clinical models or for the clinical manifestations of opioid use disorders such as withdrawal, craving, relapse, or overdose. The grant also supports the development of new chemical entities, new formulations of marketed medications available for other indications, or combinations of medications that hold promise for the treatment of opioid use disorders and overdose. The goal of this grant is to fast-track the discovery and development of medications to prevent and treat opioid use disorders or opioid overdose and advance them in the FDA's drug development approval pipeline.
