What the grant funds

The intent of the FY22 TBIPHRP CTA is to support the rapid implementation of clinical trials with the potential to have a significant impact on psychological health conditions and/or TBI through clinical applications, including healthcare products, technologies, and/or practice guidelines. Proposed research can be aligned with TBI, psychological health, or both. Clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, therapies, clinical guidance, behavioral interventions, emerging approaches and technologies, and/or new indications for products currently FDA-approved or - cleared. Proposed projects may range from small proof-of-concept trials (e.g., pilot, first-in-human, phase 0) to demonstrate feasibility or inform the design of more advanced trials through large- scale trials to determine efficacy in relevant patient populations. Proposals/applications proposing comparative effectiveness, implementation science, healthcare services research as the primary research objective should consider the FY22 TBIPHRP Patient-Centered Research Award (Funding Opportunity Number: W81XWH-22-TBIPHRP-PCRA). 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 a placebo or another control) to evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or behavioral health-related outcomes. Funded trials are required to post a copy of the Institutional Review Board (IRB)- approved informed consent form used to enroll subjects on a publicly available federal website in accordance with federal requirements described in Code of Federal Regulations, Title 32, Part 219 (32 CFR 219). For more information, see the Human Subject Resource Document. Clinical research is defined as: (1) Patient-oriented research. Research conducted with human subjects (or on material of human origin such as tissues, specimens and cognitive phenomena) for which an investigator (or colleague) directly interacts with human subjects. Excluded from this definition are in vitro studies that utilize human tissues that cannot be linked to a living individual. Patient-oriented research includes: (a) mechanisms of human disease, (b) therapeutic interventions, (c) clinical trials, and (d) development of new technologies; (2) epidemiologic and behavioral studies; and (3) outcomes research and health services research.
