Opportunity Summary:
The DoD Autism Clinical Trial Award is a U.S. Department of Defense funding opportunity under the Autism Research Program (ARP) that is focused specifically on clinical trials intended to meaningfully improve the treatment and/or day-to-day management of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The central purpose of the award is to support research that could have a major real-world impact for individuals with ASD, with a clear emphasis on testing interventions in people and measuring outcomes that speak to safety, effectiveness, and/or efficacy. Because the aim is to move beyond early-stage concepts, the funding is restricted to clinical trial work and cannot be used for preclinical studies, such as animal studies, bench research, or other non-human exploratory experiments.
A key requirement is that the proposed project must be a clinical trial as defined in the announcement. In practical terms, this means the study must prospectively enroll (accrue) human subjects and evaluate an intervention in those participants to generate measurable outcomes. The intervention can take many forms, including but not limited to a medical device, drug, biologic, surgical approach, rehabilitative modality, behavioral intervention, or another structured interaction intended to produce a direct effect on the participant. The outcomes need to be tied to what happens to the human subject as a result of that intervention, such as exploratory clinical signals, safety findings, or evidence related to whether the approach works and how well it works. Applicants whose work is not yet ready for human testing, or who are proposing preclinical development, are directed to consider other award mechanisms rather than this one.
Administratively, this opportunity was posted on May 25, 2011, with an application deadline of November 30, 2011, and it was archived on December 30, 2011. The funding opportunity number is W81XWH 11 ARP CTA, and it falls under CFDA 12.420, Military Medical Research and Development. The funding instrument type is listed as a cooperative agreement and grant, and the activity category is Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The program anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,600,000, and it did not require cost sharing or matching. Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement’s eligibility details.
The sponsoring agency is the Department of the Army, U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). For assistance accessing the full announcement, the contact provided is the CDMRP Help Desk at 301-682-5507 or help@cdmrp.org.
