National Cooperative Drug/Device Discovery/Development Groups (NCDDG) for the Treatment of Mental or Substance Use Disorders or Alcohol Disorder (U01 Clinical Trial Optional)

Funding Opportunity PAR-20-118 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to accelerate innovative drug and device therapies translation from discovery to early human studies. Studies responsive to this FOA will develop pharmacologic and neuromodulatory tools for basic and clinical research on mental health disorders, substance use disorders (SUDs) or alcohol addiction; develop and validate tools (pharmacologic or neurostimulation) in support of experimental therapeutic studies of innovative new candidates for mental disorders; and support early-stage human studies to rapidly assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics of promising drug candidates/devices and new indications for novel Investigational New Drug (IND)-ready agents or Investigational Device Exemption (IDE)-ready devices for the treatment of mental disorders, SUDs or alcohol addiction.
