Fusion Oncoproteins in Childhood Cancers (FusOnC2) Consortium (U54 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-CA-19-016 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The FOA will focus on fusion oncoproteins found in tumors that have high risk of treatment failure and for which there has been little progress in identifying targeted agents. Responsive applications can focus on any fusion oncoprotein in pediatric solid tumors or on NUP98 fusion proteins that occur in young children with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). However, greater preference will be given to applications focused on PAX-FOXO (alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma), C11orf95RELA (ependymoma), or NUP98 fusion proteins. (Source: NIH Funding Opportuni...

An Opportunity to Collaborate and Use the Unique Resources of the NIH Clinical Center
Three years ago, NIH created a program to enable extramural researchers to collaborate with our intramural scientists and use the exceptional resources of the NIH Clinical Center. Since then, 20 awards have been made to support projects of significant breadth, such as a trial for treatment of relapsed leukemia; a malaria vaccine trial; and a trial testing a new cardiac catheter. This is the fourth year that NIH has issued this funding opportunity. The December 15 pre-application deadline is approaching, and I wanted to remind you what this program offers. As described in the funding opportunity announcements (FOAs) (PAR 15...
