Opportunity Summary:

The DoD Chiropractic Clinical Trial Award (Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH-10-DHP-CCTA) is a Department of Defense research funding opportunity administered through the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). Its central purpose is to move quickly from planning to execution by supporting the rapid implementation of clinical trials that test chiropractic clinical treatment. The trials can evaluate chiropractic care as a stand-alone intervention or as an add-on (adjunct) to other standard or experimental treatments, with the aim of generating practical, clinically relevant evidence that can inform healthcare decisions affecting military personnel.

This program is focused specifically on health concerns tied to the needs of the Warfighter. The announcement highlights several priority areas where chiropractic-related clinical trials may be especially relevant, including non-surgical orthopedic injury, pain management, smoking cessation, injury prevention, and improving or maintaining fitness for duty. In other words, the intent is not basic science or early exploratory work, but applied clinical research that can directly test whether chiropractic care changes outcomes that matter for readiness, recovery, and performance in military contexts.

The award mechanism allows for either a cooperative agreement or a grant, and it falls under the broader category of science and technology and other research and development. The opportunity anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding level of $7,500,000, indicating a sizable, concentrated investment intended to support a major clinical trial effort rather than multiple smaller projects. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would not be expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility.

Eligibility is restricted. According to the announcement, only independent investigators affiliated with the National Institutes of Health or an independent academic institution are eligible to apply, and the listing notes that additional clarification may be contained in the full eligibility text. This structure suggests the program is aiming to fund investigators with established independence and the institutional capacity to run complex, compliant clinical trials, including the administrative and regulatory demands that come with human subjects research.

Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted and created on May 12, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 3, 2010, and an archive date of September 2, 2010. The program is associated with CFDA number 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development), which is a standard federal assistance identifier used to classify and track grants and related funding in the military medical R&D space.
