Grant Description
This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) requests applications for a cooperative agreement research grant (U01) to serve as the Network Management Core (NEMO) for a new type of clinical trials network: the Pulmonary Trials Cooperative (PTC). The PTC, which will include multiple Protocol Leadership Groups (PLGs) and a single Network Management Core (NEMO), will conduct multiple simple clinical trials in both inpatient and outpatient settings in adults with a variety of chronic pulmonary diseases, including but not limited to interstitial lung disease (ILD), pulmonary hypertension (PH), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sarcoidosis, and obstructive sleep apnea, but excluding asthma and acute lung injury and critical care. PTC studies, which may include both Phase 2 and Phase 3 simple, pragmatic clinical trials, will evaluate the efficacy or effectiveness of promising new or existing therapies. This FOA requests applications for NEMO, which will have primary responsibility for organizing and operating this multi-center cooperative. A companion FOA (RFA-HL-15-015) solicits applications for grants to support specific protocols and associated data management and analysis activities.
