NINDS is offering a grant to establish the Coordinating Center for the NIH Stroke Preclinical Assessment Network (SPAN) aiming to evaluate potential neuroprotective drugs for ischemic stroke. The grant will support the coordination of up to 6 neuroprotective interventions in experimental stroke models to enhance functional outcomes post-reperfusion. The goal is to bridge the gap between preclinical and clinical trials efficiently, ultimately expediting the development of effective stroke therapies. Applications for this grant should align with the network sites (RFA-NS-18-033) to oversee administrative functions and facilitate collaboration among network partners. Deadline for application is Dec 13, 2018.

| Description: | Recent advances in endovascular thrombectomy offer a new opportunity to reconsider neuroprotective agents as adjunctive therapies to extend the time window for reperfusion and to improve long-term functional outcome. The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by NINDS is to invite applications for the Coordinating Center (CC) for the NIH Stroke Preclinical Assessment Network (SPAN). SPAN will facilitate testing of up to 6 promising neuroprotective drugs or interventions to be given prior to or at the time of reperfusion in experimental models of ischemic stroke (e.g., transient middle cerebral artery occlusion). The CC will work with the awarded network sites (RFA-NS-18-033) and will provide centralized administrative oversight and coordination of all aspects of the network. If successful, this network will accelerate the identification of the most promising neuroprotective therapies for future pivotal clinical trials and span the gap between preclinical and clinical testing, in a cost-and time-effective fashion. |
