The Department of Defense is offering this grant to foster collaborations that accelerate lung cancer research into clinical applications. This grant is for funding partnerships between a laboratory scientist and a clinician to address a central problem in lung cancer, aiming for outcomes not achievable separately. Both investigators must have equal intellectual input, and at least one must possess experience in lung cancer research or patient care. Multi-institutional and military/VA/commercial organization partnerships are encouraged. While direct clinical trials are not supported, projects may include correlative studies with existing trials, development of clinical endpoints, or preclinical studies using animal models and human subjects. Preliminary data demonstrating feasibility is required.

| Description: | The key initiative of the Lung Cancer Research Program Translational Research Partnership Award is to encourage partnerships between clinicians and laboratory scientists that will accelerate the movement of promising ideas in lung cancer into clinical applications. This award supports the development of translational research collaborations between two independent, faculty level (or equivalent) investigators to address a central problem or question in lung cancer in a manner that would be less readily achievable through separate efforts. One partner in the collaboration must be a laboratory scientist and the other must be a clinician, and it should be clear that both have had equal intellectual input into the design of the research project. Multi-institutional partnerships are encouraged but not required. At least one member of the partnership must have experience either in lung cancer research or lung cancer patient care. A proposed project in which the clinical partner merely supplies tissue samples or access to patients will not meet the intent of this award mechanism. Submissions from and partnerships with investigators at Military Medical Treatment Facilities, military labs, the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Centers and research laboratories, and commercial organizations are encouraged. This mechanism does not support clinical trials, but may support correlative studies that are associated with an existing clinical trial and projects that develop clinical endpoints for clinical trials. Research projects may also include preclinical studies in animal models and human subjects and human anatomical substances. Preliminary data to support the feasibility of the research hypotheses and research approaches are required; however, these data do not necessarily need to be in lung cancer. |
