The National Cancer Institute is offering a grant to fund research on the effects of physical activity and weight control interventions on biomarkers of cancer prognosis and survival among cancer survivors. The research should focus on identifying biological pathways and include transdisciplinary approaches using experimental designs such as randomized controlled clinical trials. Applications should explore the impact of physical activity alone or in combination with weight control on established biomarkers, comorbid diseases, and the aging process among cancer survivor populations. The closing date for submissions is Aug 07, 2018.

Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages transdisciplinary and translational research that will identify the specific biological or biobehavioral pathways through which physical activity and/or weight control (either weight loss or avoidance of weight gain) may affect cancer prognosis and survival. Research applications should test the effects of physical activity, alone or in combination with weight control (either weight loss or avoidance of weight gain), on biomarkers of cancer prognosis among cancer survivors identified by previous animal or observational research on established biomarkers other than insulin/glucose metabolism, especially those obtained from tumor tissue sourced from repeat biopsies where available. Because many cancer survivor populations will not experience recurrence but will die of comorbid diseases or may experience early effects of aging, inclusion of biomarkers of comorbid diseases (e.g., cardiovascular disease) and of the aging process are also sought. Applications should use experimental designs (e.g., randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs), fractional factorial designs), and will include transdisciplinary approaches that bring together behavioral intervention expertise, cancer biology, and other basic and clinical science disciplines relevant to the pathways being studied. |
