Alcoholic Hepatitis Clinical and Translational Network – Clinical Pilot Trials (U01)

Limited Submissions

The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) seeks to continue support of the previously funded program on “Translational Research in Alcoholic Hepatitis” to accelerate the discovery and validation of new diagnostic and treatment options for patients with Alcoholic Hepatitis (AH). This initiative, via a set of five FOAs, aims to enhance and consolidate the existing program into “AH Clinical and Translational Network”, hereafter termed “AH Network”. This consolidated program will consist of 1) Clinical component, 2) Data Coordinating Center, 3) Translational component, and 4) Basic and pre-clinical component.

 

Through this FOA, applications are sought to conduct investigator-initiated single-center feasibility and pilot studies aimed to optimize critical elements for full-scale clinical trial in patients with AH under the U01 Research Project – Cooperative Agreements funding mechanism.
