Opportunity Summary:
The DoD Peer Reviewed Medical Technology/Therapeutic Development Award (TTDA) under the Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program (PRMRP) is a product-focused funding opportunity from the Department of the Army (USAMRAA) designed to move strong preclinical research toward real-world clinical use. The emphasis is on translation: taking promising findings that have already been generated in the lab or preclinical setting and advancing them into tangible products that could be used in healthcare settings. These products must align with at least one of the Congressionally directed FY13 PRMRP Topic Areas and should clearly address the healthcare needs of military service members, Veterans, and/or eligible beneficiaries.
The award supports development work aimed at clinical applications across a broad range of health impact goals, including prevention, detection, diagnosis, patient care, and improvements in quality of life. The program is intentionally flexible in the types of products it will support, as long as the end result is something that can be used in practice. Examples of acceptable product categories include pharmacologic agents (such as drugs or biologics), medical devices, and even clinical guidance intended to influence or establish standards of care. In other words, the funding is not primarily for exploratory basic science; it is structured to accelerate projects that are already positioned to be matured into something deployable in clinical or operational environments.
A key requirement of the TTDA is that the Principal Investigator must present a credible transition plan. This plan needs to show, in practical terms, how the supported product will continue advancing after the PRMRP period ends, with the expectation that it will progress into clinical trials and/or move toward delivery into military or civilian markets. The transition plan should address likely next-step funding sources, partnerships, and resources, demonstrating that the project has a pathway beyond the grant and is not expected to stall once the award period is complete.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, this opportunity was issued as a discretionary program using a cooperative agreement or grant mechanism within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. The funding opportunity number is W81XWH 13 PRMRP TTDA, and it is associated with CFDA 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development). The program anticipated making about three awards, with an estimated total funding level of $6,750,000. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to provide matching funds.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, indicating that applications were open to a wide range of entity types, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on May 14, 2013, with an original and final closing date of October 8, 2013, and it was archived on November 7, 2013. For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement, the CDMRP Help Desk was provided as the main point of contact (help@cdmrp.org, 301-682-5507).
FAQs: DoD Peer Reviewed Medical Technology/Therapeutic Development Award (TTDA) - PRMRP
What is the PRMRP Technology/Therapeutic Development Award (TTDA)?
The TTDA is a product-focused funding opportunity under the Department of Defense (DoD) Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program (PRMRP), administered by the Department of the Army (USAMRAA). It is designed to move strong preclinical research toward real-world clinical use by supporting development activities that advance a tangible healthcare product.
What is the main purpose of this award?
The main purpose is translation: advancing promising findings that already exist from lab or preclinical work into a product that could be used in clinical or operational healthcare settings. The program is structured to accelerate projects positioned to mature into something deployable, rather than to fund exploratory basic science.
What kinds of outcomes does the program want to see?
The program expects an end result that can be used in practice, such as a medical product or clinical guidance intended to influence or establish standards of care. The overall focus is on moving toward clinical trials and/or delivery into military or civilian markets.
What types of products are eligible or encouraged?
The TTDA is intentionally flexible, as long as the end result is clinically usable. Examples of acceptable product categories include:
- Pharmacologic agents, such as drugs or biologics
- Medical devices
- Clinical guidance intended to influence or establish standards of care
Is this award intended for basic or exploratory research?
No. The opportunity emphasizes translation and product development. It supports projects that have already generated promising findings in the lab or preclinical setting and are ready to be advanced toward clinical application.
What health impact goals can a proposed product address?
The award supports development work aimed at clinical applications across a broad range of health impact goals, including prevention, detection, diagnosis, patient care, and improvements in quality of life.
Does the proposed work need to align to specific topic areas?
Yes. Products must align with at least one of the Congressionally directed FY13 PRMRP Topic Areas.
Who should the product ultimately benefit?

What is a required element of the application related to product advancement?
A key requirement is that the Principal Investigator (PI) must present a credible transition plan describing, in practical terms, how the product will continue advancing after the PRMRP period ends.
What should the transition plan cover?
The transition plan should explain how the product is expected to progress into clinical trials and/or move toward delivery into military or civilian markets. It should also address likely next-step funding sources, partnerships, and resources so the project has a pathway beyond the grant and is not expected to stall when the award period is complete.
