Fc-Dependent Mechanisms of Antibody-Mediated Killing (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-AI-23-054 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to support basic research that will elucidate mechanisms of Fc-mediated antibody functions, including antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP). Supported studies are expected to generate foundational data and tools that can be applied to the prediction of Fc-mediated killing activity by antibodies. Such data should accelerate development of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies and design of vaccines or vaccine-adjuvant combinations that induce antibody responses capable of killing infected host cells, particularly in cases where induction of neutralizing antibodies fails or is insufficient for clearance of infection

HEAL Initiative: Research to Increase Implementation of Substance Use Preventive Services (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DA-24-066 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The importance of prevention in combatting the opioid crisis is clear identifying and implementing effective strategies to prevent the onset of opioid misuse and use disorder and reducing the need to treat disorders yields positive individual, societal, and financial benefits. In 2020, 9.5 million people aged 12 or older misused opioids in the past year (NSDUH, 2021), suggesting that there are millions of people whose trajectories could have been changed, had they been exposed to an effective prevention strategy. Currently funded HEAL studies are testing whether existing programs shown to prevent or treat non-opioid substance use disorders might generalize to opioids. However, there remain many gaps in knowledge about how to deploy prevention services. Often effective strategies are not adopted, implemented, or scaled-up, limiting their reach and impact. There is a critical need for research to develop innovative strategies to implement and sustain prevention services that are affordable, practical, sustainable, and designed in partnership with end-users. To address these gaps, we propose an RFA with multiple receipt dates calling for investigator-initiated research that will address priorities in the dissemination and implementation of prevention services, and the creation of a prevention infrastructure.

Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPOREs) in Human Cancers for Years 2024, 2025, and 2026 (P50 Clinical Trial Required)
Funding Opportunity PAR-23-284 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Through this funding opportunity announcement (FOA), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications for P50 Research Center Grants for Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE). The program will fund P50 SPORE grants to support state-of-the-art investigator-initiated translational research that will contribute to improved prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of an organ-specific cancer or a highly related group of cancers. For the purpose of this FOA, a group of highly related cancers are those that are derived from the same organ system, such as gastrointestinal, neuroendocrine, head and neck, and other cancers. Other programmatically appropriate groups of cancers may include those centered around a common biological mechanism critical for promoting tumorigenesis and/or cancer progression in organ sites that belong to different organ systems. For example, a SPORE may focus on cancers caused by the same infectious agent or cancers promoted and sustained by dysregulation of a common signaling pathway. In addition, a SPORE may focus on cross-cutting themes such as pediatric cancers or cancer health disparities. The research supported through this program must be translational and must stem from research on human biology using cellular, molecular, structural, biochemical, and/or genetic experimental approaches. SPORE projects must have the goal of reaching a translational human endpoint within the project period of the grant.
