Clinical Trial Planning: Therapeutic/Indication Pairing Strategies (U34) (Clinical Trials Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity PAR-18-462 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The U34 award will support clinical trial planning. This includes collection of feasibility data and complete planning, design, and preparation of the documentation necessary for implementation of Phase I and/or Phase II clinical trials for a new therapeutic use. The clinical trial that is being planned must aim to repurpose existing drugs or biologics (therapeutics) that have already completed at least a Phase l trial for a different indication by the time a clinical trial planning award is made. The hypothesis for proposed studies must be developed using innovative processes to identify the therapeutic/indication pair. Examples include independent crowdsourcing strategies (e.g., http://www.ncats.nih.gov/ntu/therapeutics/current, http://openinnovation.astrazeneca.com/, or any website that lists experimental drugs or biologics), or computational algorithms.
