## What the grant funds

The intent of the FY23 CPMRP PMCCRA is to support large-scale pragmatic comparative effectiveness and implementation science clinical trials that will facilitate the acceptance and utilization of evidence-based chronic pain management clinical applications, such as health care products, technologies, clinical practice guidelines, and/or models of care. PMCCRA applications should explain how the proposed work will inform the development, refinement, and/or revision of existing standards of care, recommendations, or guidelines for managing chronic pain. Military and Veterans health care systems and other health care entities that provide services to Service Members, Veterans, and their families are the targeted organizations for this program. Research conducted in partnership with eligible VA and Military Health System (MHS) providers is essential for obtaining meaningful and relevant research results in “real world” health care delivery systems serving Veterans, Service Members, and their beneficiaries. Applications to the FY23 CPMRP PMCCRA are aligned with appropriations specifically intended for chronic pain research, therefore, all applications to the funding opportunity must address chronic pain either alone or in the context of common comorbidities. Applications primarily focused on comorbid conditions (e.g., TBI, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD]) are not appropriate for the FY23 CPMRP PMCCRA. Studies seeking to advance new and novel opioid-based therapeutic interventions do not meet the intent of this DOD FY23 Chronic Pain Management award mechanism and will not be selected for funding. Studies seeking to understand and reduce opioid utilization in chronic pain management within the context of current prescribing practices are acceptable. Funding from this award mechanism must support a clinical trial. A clinical trial is defined as a research study in which one or more human subjects are prospectively assigned to one or more interventions (which may include placebo or other control) to evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or behavioral health-related outcomes. For more information, a Human Subject Resource Document is provided at https://cdmrp.health.mil/pubs/pdf/Human%20Subjects%20Resource%20Document.pdf. Studies that do not seek to measure safety, effectiveness, and/or efficacy outcome(s) of an intervention are not considered clinical trials.
