The NIH Science of Behavior Change Program is offering a grant opportunity for competitive revision applications to NIH-supported clinical trials aiming to optimize behavior change interventions. The focus is on advancing a mechanisms-focused, experimental medicine approach to behavior change research. The grant seeks to accelerate the adaptation, validation, and translation of SOBC Research Network assays for use in ongoing clinical trials of drugs, devices, procedures, or behavior modifications. The goal is to enhance interventions by integrating specific mechanisms of behavior change and developing assays that verify their engagement, regardless of whether behavior change is the primary outcome. Deadline: December 5, 2017.

| Description: | Supported by the NIH Common Fund (Common Fund) Science of Behavior Change (SOBC) Program, this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits competitive revision (formerly known as a competitive supplement) applications to NIH-supported clinical trials awarded as research project U01 cooperative agreements. (See information about the new NIH clinical trial definition at https://osp.od.nih.gov/clinical-research/clinical-trials/.) The goal of the SOBC Program is to advance a mechanisms-focused, experimental medicine approach to behavior change research. Funded projects in the SOBC Research Network (https://commonfund.nih.gov/behaviorchange/fundedresearch) have developed experimental manipulations, assays, and/or measures (hereafter referred to as assays for brevity) to support an experimental medicine approach to behavior change research. The SOBC Measures Repository is accessible from the SOBC Research Network Open Science Framework (OSF) page at https://osf.io/zp7b4. The goal of this FOA is to accelerate the adaptation, validation, and translation of SOBC Research Network assays for use in ongoing clinical trials. This FOA calls for the integration of SOBC Research Network assays into active NIH-supported clinical trials of drugs, devices, procedures, or behavior modifications. The active NIH-supported clinical trial used to respond to this FOA does not have to be a behavior change trial or identify behavior change as a primary outcome. The integration of SOBC Research Network assays into ongoing clinical trials will accelerate the development of interventions and experimental manipulations that have been shown to engage specific mechanisms of behavior change and the development of assays that verify engagement of those behavior change targets. |
