Section I. Funding Opportunity Description

Purpose

The objective of the Alzheimer’s Disease Prevention Trials initiative is to enable the testing of promising pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions in asymptomatic at-risk individuals and/or individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and in doing so identify avenues for prevention of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Background

The biggest risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease is age and Alzheimer’s is the most common cause of dementia in those aged 65 and older. Because of the aging of populations worldwide, this disorder is reaching epidemic proportions, with an enormous human and economic burden. Alzheimer's is one of the most persistent and devastating dementing disorders of old age, because it eventually leads to a complete loss of memory and of the ability to function independently. It is estimated that over five million people in the United States have AD in its various stages at an estimated cost to society of over $200 billion per year, and it is projected that 11 to 16 million people and their families could be affected by AD by the middle of this century if no effective therapies are developed to prevent, slow or stop the disease.

Currently there are only a few interventions that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of AD and those approved have demonstrated only modest effects in modifying the clinical symptoms for relatively short periods, and none has shown a clear effect on disease progression. The Alzheimer’s Association’s 2010 trajectory report estimated that a treatment delaying onset by five years and beginning to show its effect in 2015 would decrease the total number of older Americans with Alzheimer’s from 5.6 million to 4 million in 2020. Moreover, a treatment that even slowed disease progression would result in far fewer people with Alzheimer’s disease in the severe stage that requires the highest level of care with the greatest costs.

In response to this looming public health crisis in the United States and worldwide, a growing number of countries are increasing their investment in all aspects of AD research. On January 4, 2011, President Obama signed into law the National Alzheimer’s Project Act (NAPA). As part of the Strategic Planning Process for the implementation of the National Alzheimer s Project Act (http://aspe.hhs.gov/daltcp/napa/) the National Institute on Aging at the NIH with support from the Foundation for the NIH (FNIH) organized and hosted an Alzheimer’s Disease Research Summit entitled, Path to Treatment and Prevention, held on the NIH campus on May 14 and 15, 2012. The overarching goal of the Summit was to formulate a strategy for a new integrated, multidisciplinary research agenda that will enable the development of effective therapies (disease modifying and palliative) across the disease continuum for the cognitive as well as neuropsychiatric symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease and to identify the resources, infrastructure, and public private partnerships necessary to successfully implement this translational agenda. This funding opportunity responds to the recommendations of the AD Research Summit, http://www.nia.nih.gov/newsroom/alzheimers-disease-research-summit-2012-recommendations.

Research Objectives

The objective of the Alzheimer’s Disease Prevention Trials initiative is to enable the testing of promising pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions in asymptomatic at-risk individuals and/or individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and in doing so identify avenues for prevention of AD.

This funding opportunity will support Phase II or Phase III clinical trials testing pharmacological (small molecules and biologics) and non-pharmacological interventions, in cognitively normal individuals at-risk for AD (e.g., individuals at risk genetically, older adults positive for biomarker evidence of Alzheimer’s disease pathology) or in individuals with MCI using a combination of biomarkers (fluid and imaging) and cognitive measures as outcomes. These applications may include trials testing combinations of interventions that attempt to address multiple risk factors simultaneously (e.g., obesity, hypertension, diabetes, physical inactivity, anxiety, and depression). Investigators will be expected to collect DNA and other biosamples from these studies to enable subsequent interrogation of treatment responsiveness, as well as examination of predictors of decline in the groups receiving placebo.

Responsive Phase III clinical trial applications will have established proof of mechanism or target engagement at earlier stages of clinical development for the intervention(s) being tested. The intervention(s) being tested in Phase III trials should also have adequate safety data for the populations under study.

Responsive Phase II clinical trial applications will be designed to provide or confirm proof of mechanism and/or evidence of target engagement for the intervention(s) being tested. These applications should also provide evidence of safety from earlier phase clinical trials and should include further evaluation of safety in the trial design.

Section V. Application Review Information

1. Criteria

Only the review criteria described below will be considered in the review process. As part of the NIH mission, all applications submitted to the NIH in support of biomedical and behavioral research are evaluated for scientific and technical merit through the NIH peer review system.

Overall Impact

Reviewers will provide an overall impact/priority score to reflect their assessment of the likelihood for the project to exert a sustained, powerful influence on the research field(s) involved, in consideration of the following review criteria and additional review criteria (as applicable for the project proposed).

Scored Review Criteria

Reviewers will consider each of the review criteria below in the determination of scientific merit, and give a separate score for each. An application does not need to be strong in all categories to be judged likely to have major scientific impact. For example, a project that by its nature is not innovative may be essential to advance a field.

Significance

Does the project address an important problem or a critical barrier to progress in the field? If the aims of the project are achieved, how will scientific knowledge, technical capability, and/or clinical practice be improved? How will successful completion of the aims change the concepts, methods, technologies, treatments, services, or preventative interventions that drive this field?

Investigator(s)

Are the PD(s)/PI(s), collaborators, and other researchers well suited to the project? If Early Stage Investigators or New Investigators, or in the early stages of independent careers, do they have appropriate experience and training? If established, have they demonstrated an ongoing record of accomplishments that have advanced their field(s)? If the project is collaborative or multi-PD/PI, do the investigators have complementary and integrated expertise; are their leadership approach, governance and organizational structure appropriate for the project?

Innovation

Does the application challenge and seek to shift current research or clinical practice paradigms by utilizing novel theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions? Are the concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions novel to one field of research or novel in a broad sense? Is a refinement, improvement, or new application of theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions proposed?

Approach

Are the overall strategy, methodology, and analyses well-reasoned and appropriate to accomplish the specific aims of the project? Are potential problems, alternative strategies, and benchmarks for success presented? If the project is in the early stages of development, will the strategy establish feasibility and will particularly risky aspects be managed?

If the project involves clinical research, are the plans for 1) protection of human subjects from research risks, and 2) inclusion of minorities and members of both sexes/genders, as well as the inclusion of children, justified in terms of the scientific goals and research strategy proposed?

Environment

Will the scientific environment in which the work will be done contribute to the probability of success? Are the institutional support, equipment and other physical resources available to the investigators adequate for the project proposed? Will the project benefit from unique features of the scientific environment, subject populations, or collaborative arrangements?

Additional Review Criteria

As applicable for the project proposed, reviewers will evaluate the following additional items while determining scientific and technical merit, and in providing an overall impact/priority score, but will not give separate scores for these items.

Protections for Human Subjects

For research that involves human subjects but does not involve one of the six categories of research that are exempt under 45 CFR Part 46, the committee will evaluate the justification for involvement of human subjects and the proposed protections from research risk relating to their participation according to the following five review criteria: 1) risk to subjects, 2) adequacy of protection against risks, 3) potential benefits to the subjects and others, 4) importance of the knowledge to be gained, and 5) data and safety monitoring for clinical trials.

For research that involves human subjects and meets the criteria for one or more of the six categories of research that are exempt under 45 CFR Part 46, the committee will evaluate: 1) the justification for the exemption, 2) human subjects involvement and characteristics, and 3) sources of materials. For additional information on review of the Human Subjects section, please refer to the Human Subjects Protection and Inclusion Guidelines.

Inclusion of Women, Minorities, and Children

When the proposed project involves clinical research, the committee will evaluate the proposed plans for inclusion of minorities and members of both genders, as well as the inclusion of children. For additional information on review of the Inclusion section, please refer to the Human Subjects Protection and Inclusion Guidelines.

Vertebrate Animals

The committee will evaluate the involvement of live vertebrate animals as part of the scientific assessment according to the following five points: 1) proposed use of the animals, and species, strains, ages, sex, and numbers to be used; 2) justifications for the use of animals and for the appropriateness of the species and numbers proposed; 3) adequacy of veterinary care; 4) procedures for limiting discomfort, distress, pain and injury to that which is unavoidable in the conduct of scientifically sound research including the use of analgesic, anesthetic, and tranquilizing drugs and/or comfortable restraining devices; and 5) methods of euthanasia and reason for selection if not consistent with the AVMA Guidelines on Euthanasia. For additional information on review of the Vertebrate Animals section, please refer to the Worksheet for Review of the Vertebrate Animal Section.
