What the grant funds

The KCRP Clinical Trial Award supports the rapid implementation of early-phase clinical trials (phase 0, phase 1, phase 1/2) with the potential to have a significant impact on the treatment or management of kidney cancer. Clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, surgical procedures, behavior modifications, clinical guidance, and/or emerging approaches and technologies. Therapeutic approaches testing existing interventions for new indications in kidney cancer are also encouraged. It is anticipated that outcomes from studies funded by this award will provide scientific rationale for subsequent development of larger, efficacy-based clinical trials of interventions that will transform kidney cancer patient care. 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.army.mil/pubs/pdf/Human% 20Subjects%20Resource%20Document.pdf. Principal Investigators (PIs) seeking funding for a preclinical research project should consider one of the other FY21 KCRP program announcements being offered. Investigational New Drug Requirements: If the proposed clinical trial involves the use of a drug that has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the proposed investigational use, then an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA that meets all requirements under the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Part 312 (21 CFR 312) may be required. It is the responsibility of the applicant to provide evidence from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of record or the FDA if an IND is not required. If an IND is required, the IND application must be submitted to the FDA by the FY21 KCRP Clinical Trial Award application submission deadline. The IND should be specific for the product (i.e., the product should not represent a derivative or alternate version of the investigational agent described in the IND application) and indication to be tested in the proposed clinical trial.
