DoD Peer Reviewed Orthopaedic Clinical Trial Award | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The DoD Peer Reviewed Orthopaedic Clinical Trial Award (PRORP Clinical Trial Award) is a Department of Defense funding opportunity run through the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) under the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP). Its central purpose is to move quickly from promising ideas to real-world clinical testing by supporting the rapid implementation of clinical trials that could meaningfully improve outcomes for people dealing with combat-related orthopaedic injuries. In practical terms, this program is aimed at studies that are ready to be executed as clinical trials and that have clear potential to change clinical practice for service members and Veterans affected by serious musculoskeletal trauma.

The types of trials this award supports are broad, as long as they squarely address orthopaedic needs tied to combat injury. Proposed studies can evaluate new or improved products, pharmacologic agents such as drugs or biologics, medical devices, clinical guidance or care pathways, and emerging approaches or technologies that could improve recovery, function, pain outcomes, complications, or long-term quality of life after orthopaedic trauma. The emphasis is on impact: the trial should be positioned to answer an important clinical question and generate evidence that could influence care for military and Veteran populations.

A core requirement is that every application clearly justifies relevance to military and/or Veteran populations affected by combat-related orthopaedic injury. This is not optional background framing; it is a fundamental part of the scientific and programmatic case for funding. The opportunity also actively encourages collaboration with military researchers and clinicians, reflecting the program's focus on operationally relevant research and on making sure trial design and execution align with military health needs and realities. During programmatic review, studies that include active-duty military personnel or Veterans as some or all of the study population are expected to receive higher priority for funding, meaning applicants who can enroll these participants or otherwise build the trial around these populations may be more competitive.

Administratively, this opportunity was posted on February 21, 2013, with an original and final closing date of July 18, 2013, and an archive date of August 17, 2013. It was offered as either a cooperative agreement or a grant, in the category of science and technology and other research and development. The program anticipated making about three awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $11,250,000. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of award. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, indicating that a wide range of applicant organization types could apply, subject to any additional eligibility details that may have been included in the full announcement text.

The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development) and is identified by Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH-13-PRORP-CTA. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the contact listed was the CDMRP Help Desk at 301-682-5507 or help@cdmrp.org.
