This grant is for advancing the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) through targeted pilot studies. These investigations are designed to optimize critical elements necessary for developing robust, full-scale randomized controlled trials. Despite previous smaller trials, significant questions remain concerning the most effective agents, ideal target populations, precise dosing regimens, efficient data collection methodologies, and relevant clinical outcomes. The grant invites investigators to submit collaborative applications focused on conducting these essential pilot studies, ultimately aiming to generate crucial insights that will directly inform and enhance the design of future definitive clinical trials for CKD therapies, addressing current gaps in knowledge.

| Description: | The purpose of this FOA is to advance the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) through pilot studies that seek to optimize critical elements of a full-scale randomized control trial design. Various treatments to slow or reverse progression of CKD have been tested in small trials with limited numbers of participants, but there still remain questions of the optimum agent(s), target population, dosing, data collection, and appropriate outcomes. This FOA solicits applications from investigators willing to collaborate on the design and conduct of pilot studies that will better inform the design of a full-scale randomized, controlled clinical trial(s) in CKD. |
