Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, PAR-13-067, is an NIH National Cancer Institute (NCI) administrative supplement program designed to add targeted, women-focused cancer research components onto projects that are already funded by NCI. The initiative is led by NCI's Office of Science Planning and Assessment in partnership with the NCI Women's Health Officer and the Women's Health Activities Committee. Instead of supporting entirely new standalone projects, the supplements are meant to expand or strengthen the scope of ongoing NCI awards so that investigators can pursue additional aims, analyses, or research activities that more directly address cancers in women.

The scientific purpose is to advance research on cancers affecting women, including both sex/gender-specific cancers (for example, cancers of reproductive organs) and cancers that are not inherently sex- or gender-specific but may differ meaningfully by sex or gender in incidence, presentation, biology, outcomes, risk factors, screening performance, treatment response, survivorship, or other clinically relevant dimensions. The central emphasis is on research that is pertinent to distinct characteristics of women's health, meaning the supplement work should clarify or address questions that matter specifically for women rather than merely including women as a subgroup without a strong scientific rationale. NCI also signals an expectation that supported work will help move findings toward practical use, encouraging translational directions where the added research can ultimately inform prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment, biology, or control strategies that improve outcomes for women.

From an administrative and funding standpoint, this is a discretionary grant supplement mechanism under NIH, categorized in the health and education domains and aligned with multiple NCI program areas, as reflected by the CFDA listings: cancer cause and prevention (93.393), detection and diagnosis (93.394), treatment (93.395), biology (93.396), and control (93.399). The total estimated funding associated with the opportunity is listed as $250,000, with an award ceiling of $50,000 per supplement, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted and created on December 21, 2012, with an original and current closing date of February 28, 2013, and an archive date of March 31, 2013, indicating it was a time-limited supplement call during that period.

Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations that can hold NIH grants, spanning public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3)), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and a wide range of government entities such as state, county, city/township, special district governments, and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. The announcement also explicitly includes tribal governments and tribal organizations, as well as a variety of designated institution types such as HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, tribally controlled colleges and universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian serving institutions, and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander serving institutions. Importantly, non-U.S. entities are eligible as well: foreign organizations and foreign institutions may apply, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are eligible, and foreign components are allowed as defined under the NIH Grants Policy Statement. This wide eligibility reflects the administrative supplement nature of the program, which is generally tethered to the existence of an underlying NCI-funded project and is intended to enable rapid, additive work that strengthens women-relevant cancer research within active awards.

For applicants seeking the full official instructions and requirements, the announcement points to the NIH Grants Guide page for PAR-13-067 at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-13-067.html. Technical access issues are directed to the NIH Office of Extramural Research webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV, which is the listed contact route for problems reaching or linking to the announcement online.

PAR-13-067 is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Cancer Institute (NCI) administrative supplement opportunity. It is designed to add targeted, women-focused cancer research components to projects that are already funded by NCI, rather than funding brand-new standalone projects.

What is the main goal of this supplement opportunity?

The goal is to advance research on cancers affecting women by expanding or strengthening the scope of active NCI awards. The supplement is intended to support additional aims, analyses, or research activities that more directly address cancers in women and questions that matter specifically for womens health.

Is this funding meant for new independent research projects?

No. The opportunity is explicitly described as an administrative supplement program. It is intended to build onto an already-funded NCI project by adding women-focused components, not to support entirely new standalone projects.
