Opportunity Summary:
This NIH notice (Funding Opportunity Number NOT-OD-09-058) announced a one-time, time-sensitive chance for investigators and U.S. organizations that already held active NIH research project grants to request additional money through a competitive revision application (what NIH previously called a competitive supplement). The point of the opportunity was not to start brand-new projects, but to let existing, already-funded projects expand in a meaningful way, such as adding major new aims, broadening the scope, increasing the scale of the work, or significantly modifying the research protocol in ways that go beyond a routine administrative change. The funding behind these revisions came from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), the federal stimulus law intended to accelerate research activity and related economic impact on a fast timeline.
A key feature of the announcement was the possibility of using ARRA funds that NIH set aside for comparative effectiveness research (CER). Applications proposing CER had to align with NIH's definition: rigorous evaluation of the impact of different available options for treating a specific medical condition in a defined patient population. The notice emphasized that CER could involve head-to-head comparisons of similar approaches (for example, two drugs in the same class) or comparisons of very different strategies (for example, surgery versus medication). It also highlighted that CER work could include building or using clinical registries, clinical data networks, and other electronic health data resources that help generate or obtain outcomes data relevant to comparative effectiveness questions.
This notice was described as one of three related NIH ARRA supplement/revision announcements, with NIH planning to obligate roughly $1 billion in ARRA funds by September 30, 2010 across those notices (or any reissued versions). Because ARRA dollars were designed to be spent quickly, the timeline was unusually compressed. For applications submitted under this specific notice, NIH intended to make funding decisions and issue awards on or before September 30, 2009. If the notice were reissued, awards tied to the reissuance would be made on or before September 30, 2010. The stated application receipt deadline for this posting was April 21, 2009, and the notice made clear that resubmissions would only be allowed if NIH reissued the announcement.
Eligibility was focused on entities with active NIH awards and included a wide range of U.S.-based organizations across sectors: public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status), state and local governments, tribal governments and tribal organizations, school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, small businesses, and other for-profit organizations. The announcement explicitly covered many common NIH grant mechanisms, including but not limited to R-series research grants (such as R01, R03, R21, R34, and others), SBIR/STTR awards (R41, R42, R43, R44), program project and center grants, cooperative agreements, training grants, and institutional career development awards. At the same time, it excluded certain mechanisms from consideration for these revisions, notably fellowships (F awards) and conference grants (R13). The notice also pointed applicants to institute- and center-specific guidance for more detailed eligibility rules, recognizing that NIH institutes sometimes apply additional constraints or priorities.
Administrative details in the source information reflect that this was categorized as a grant opportunity in the health area under ARRA, with no cost-sharing or matching requirement. It listed CFDA numbers 93.701 (Trans-NIH Recovery Act Research Support) and 93.702 (National Center for Research Resources, Recovery Act Construction Support). The posting date and creation date were both March 18, 2009, with an archive date of May 21, 2009, underscoring that this was a short-lived, stimulus-driven funding window.
In practical terms, the opportunity invited current NIH grantees to move faster and go bigger on projects that were already vetted and underway, using ARRA funds to accelerate expanded research activities. Applicants were expected to follow the instructions in the full announcement for selecting the correct application forms and using the appropriate submission process, and the notice directed users to NIH recovery and institute-specific web pages for the most current details. Contact support was routed through the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster for access or linking problems related to the announcement text.
