Opportunity Summary:
The DOD FY12 Lung Cancer Research Concept Award (Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH 12 LCRP CA) is a Department of the Army/USAMRAA funding opportunity under the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs that aims to support bold, early-stage ideas intended to reduce and ultimately eliminate deaths from lung cancer. The broader FY12 Lung Cancer Research Program (LCRP) is focused on improving the health and welfare of both the military community and the general public by advancing research across the full lung cancer continuum, including risk assessment, early detection, diagnosis, prevention, treatment, cure, and long-term control.
This specific Concept Award mechanism is designed for highly innovative, high-risk projects that test genuinely new concepts or unproven theories relevant to lung cancer. The intent is not to fund incremental next steps from an already established line of work, but to create room for investigators to pursue unconventional approaches, unexpected findings, or serendipitous observations that could open entirely new directions for the field. Competitive applications are expected to clearly explain why the idea is novel, what important lung-cancer-related problem it addresses, and how the work could meaningfully expand existing knowledge or establish a new avenue of investigation rather than simply extending prior research.
The program explicitly encourages submissions from, and collaborations with, organizations tied to federal and military health and research systems, including Military Medical Treatment Facilities, military laboratories, Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Centers, and other research laboratories and commercial organizations. While the opportunity is listed as “unrestricted†in eligibility (open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility language in the full announcement), the emphasis on these partnerships signals a strong interest in work that can connect to the needs and settings relevant to service members and veterans as well as civilian populations.
Administratively, the award was offered as a discretionary funding opportunity using either a cooperative agreement or a grant as the funding instrument type, and it falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. The CFDA listing is 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development). The estimated total funding for the opportunity was $1,760,000, with an expected 11 awards, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement. The announcement was posted June 6, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 23, 2012, and an archive date of September 22, 2012.
In practical terms, the Concept Award is positioned as seed funding: a way to generate initial evidence and early proof-of-concept results that could justify larger, follow-on studies. The program description makes clear that a successful project may produce enough preliminary data to support a future, more extensive lung cancer research application. For applicant support, the announcement directs those who have trouble accessing materials to the CDMRP Help Desk (PA HELP and eReceipt HELP) at 301-682-5507 or help@cdmrp.org.
