This grant offered by the National Cancer Institute aims to accelerate cancer research through the Beau Biden Cancer MoonshotSM Initiative. The focus is on immunotherapy approaches for treating and preventing adult cancers, as identified by scientific priorities. The grant supports collaborative team science efforts to discover new immune targets and assess innovative immune-based therapies to eliminate established cancers or prevent new ones. Specifically, it establishes Cancer Immunoprevention Research Projects within a Cancer Immunotherapy Consortium, fostering translational research on immune mechanisms in tumor development and progression. Pre-clinical studies with potential for early-phase clinical applications are encouraged. Closing date for applications is Feb 8, 2019.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is associated with the Beau Biden Cancer MoonshotSM Initiative that is intended to accelerate cancer research. Specifically, this FOA targets the following area designated as scientific priority by the Blue Ribbon Panel (BRP): Recommendation B. Create a translational science network devoted exclusively to immunotherapy approaches to treat and prevent adult cancers. The goal of the network is to foster collaborative team science approaches to accelerate the discovery of new immune targets and evaluate novel immune-based therapies and combination approaches that eliminate established cancers in adults or to prevent cancers before they occur. The purpose of this specific FOA is to establish Cancer Immunoprevention Research Projects that will function as components of a Cancer Immunotherapy Consortium (CIC), which will also include Cancer Immunotherapy Research Projects. The CIC will form an integrated network of multi-disciplinary, collaborative teams with the overarching goals of accelerating translational research of innate and adaptive immune mechanisms that contribute to tumor initiation and progression, and evaluating new or improved immunopreventive and immunotherapeutic strategies (including combinations with standard or other therapies). Studies should be largely pre-clinical involving clinically-relevant models and endpoints, and have the potential for rapid translation into early-phase clinical applications. |
