DOD Toxic Exposures, Clinical Trial Award

closed

The TERP CTA supports the rapid implementation of clinical trials with the potential to have a significant impact on the prevention, treatment, or management of symptoms, diseases, or conditions associated with or resulting from military-related toxic exposures. To meet the intent of the award mechanism, applications must address at least one of the FY23 TERP Programmatic Goals and at least one of the FY23 TERP Topic Areas. Proposed projects may range from small proof-of-concept clinical trials (e.g., pilot, first-in-human, phase 0) designed to demonstrate the feasibility or inform the design of more advanced trials through large-scale trials to determine efficacy in relevant patient populations. Clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, clinical guidance, and/or emerging approaches and technologies. It is anticipated that outcomes from studies funded by this award will follow a clinical development plan that advances the research to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) device or drug approval and/or establishment of clinical practice guidelines, as applicable. Applications to the TERP CTA mechanism must support a clinical trial and may not be used for animal or other preclinical research studies. The application will be withdrawn if the proposed research is not a clinical trial.
