Clinical Trials in Organ Transplantation in Children and Adults (CTOT-CA) (U01 Clinical Trial Optional)
The purpose of this FOA is to solicit applications to participate in a clinical studies program to improve the long-term outcome of adult and pediatric transplant recipients (thoracic organ, abdominal organ, vascular composite tissue, and cellular replacement). The Clinical Trials in Organ Transplantation in Children and Adults (CTOT-CA) program will support cooperative, multi-institutional consortia for the conduct of interventional trials (Phase 1, 2, or 3) or observational clinical studies in organ, vascularized composite tissue, or cellular replacement allotransplantation. Each applicant institution must represent a consortium of 2 or more clinical sites. Each clinical study must include associated mechanistic studies that focus on immune-mediated processes that are relevant to the proposed clinical study. The goals of this research will be to further our understanding of and ultimately reduce immune- and infection-mediated morbidity and mortality of allotransplantation.
Application Instructions
Please submit:
- a one-page letter of intent with a description of proposed aims and approach
- CV (not NIH format) of the PI
- A letter of support from the Dean or Chair. This letter of support signifies that the Dean or Chair have ensured that the nominee and application are likely to be of sufficient quality to be competitive nationally
to research@uw.edu by 5:00 PM Thursday July 9, 2020. Proposals are due to the 10/6/20 so you will need to have your materials in to the Office of Sponsored Programs by 9/25/20 for processing, if given the go ahead by the Proposal Review Committee.
Inquiries and Contact Information
Investigators who identify a grant, award or fellowship program that restricts the number of applications that can be submitted from an Institution should immediately contact their Chairperson, Associate Dean for Research (or Dean, if no ADR) and the Office of Research (see below) if they intend to prepare a response. Failure to do so, or to meet the deadlines for submission of pre-proposal, will preclude submission of the application through the Office of Sponsored Programs.
For general inquiries, or to request a listing of a limited submission opportunity that should be but is not already listed, please email us at limitedsubs@uw.edu.
