PAR-20-292 - NCI Clinical and Translational Exploratory/Developmental Studies (R21 Clinical Trial Optional)
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) intends to reissue the NCI Clinical and Translational Exploratory/Developmental Studies (R21 Clinical Trial Optional) Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), which supports preclinical and early-phase clinical research, as well as correlative studies, directly related to advancements in cancer treatment, diagnosis, prevention, symptom management, or reduction of cancer disparities. The R21 mechanism is intended to encourage exploratory and developmental research projects by providing support for the early and conceptual stages of these projects. These studies may involve considerable risk but may lead to breakthroughs in particular areas, or to the development of novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models, or applications that could have a major impact on cancer research (preclinical or clinical). The FOA is intended to be a re-issuance of PAR-20-292.
This Notice of Intent to Publish (NOITP) is being provided to allow sufficient time for applicants to develop strong applications.
The FOA is expected to be published in August 2022 with an expected first application due date in October, 2022.
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) supports areas of cancer research relevant to the mission of the Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis (DCTD), the Division of Cancer Prevention (DCP), and the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD). These include (but are not limited to):
Non-responsive Applications: This FOA does not support research that focuses on basic cancer biology (such as studies of cancer-related pathways, molecular mechanisms, or mechanisms of metastasis), late-stage clinical trials, risk assessment studies, epidemiological studies, or studies of behavioral interventions. These applications will be deemed not responsive to this FOA and will not be reviewed.
