This National Cancer Institute (NCI) grant aims to advance cancer model systems to improve immuno-oncology study predictivity. It focuses on accurately recapitulating human immunity in the tumor microenvironment. Research must use human cells/tissues to regenerate or replicate the human immune system in in vivo or in vitro models. These models need to achieve human immune system representation matching or exceeding current murine models developed with HFT. Projects solely using genetically manipulated immune systems without human immune lineage cells are ineligible. This opportunity utilizes the R33 Exploratory/Developmental Grants Phase II research activity code.

| Description: | The goal of this FOA is to advance cancer model systems that recapitulate human immunity in the tumor microenvironment to improve the predictivity of immuno-oncology studies. Proposed research projects must focus on recapitulation of the human immune system in their proposed cancer model using human cells or tissues to regenerate and/or recapitulate the human immune system in in vivo or in vitro immuno-oncology models in a manner that matches or exceeds representation of the human immune system achieved with murine models developed using HFT. Models derived from genetically manipulated immune systems without introduction of human immune lineage cells will not be considered responsive.The FOA will utilize the R33 Exploratory/Developmental Grants Phase II research activity code. |
