The Department of Defense is offering the Peer Reviewed Orthopaedic Clinical Trial Award to support rapid implementation of clinical trials addressing combat-related orthopaedic injuries and injuries affecting military readiness. Projects may evaluate new products, pharmacologic agents, devices, and technologies. Priority is given to studies involving military or Veteran participants. Focus areas include health effects following neuromusculoskeletal injury, neuroma inhibition, prosthetic development, osseointegration, non-battle injury treatments, optimal rehabilitation interventions, and muscle loss function restoration. Collaborations with military professionals are encouraged. Applications for this grant must explain the project’s relevance to the military and Veteran populations. Deadline for submissions is October 24, 2014.

| Description: | The PRORP Clinical Trial Award is intended to support the rapid implementation of clinical trials with the potential to have a significant impact on military combat-related orthopaedic injuries, or non-battle injuries that significantly impact unit readiness and return-to-duty/work rates. The clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, clinical guidance, and/or emerging approaches and technologies. All applications are required to articulate the relevance of the proposed project to military and/or Veteran populations affected by orthopaedic injury. Collaboration with military researchers and clinicians is encouraged, and studies that include active duty military or Veteran participants as all or a portion of the study population will be given higher priority for funding during programmatic review. Applications are being solicited in the following focus areas: Identify and reduce the secondary health effects (e.g., joint contracture, obesity, metabolic syndrome, poor bone health) that follow reduced mobility from traumatic neuromusculoskeletal injury; Strategies to inhibit neuromas at surgical/amputation sites; The application of novel and/or innovative technologies and materials in prosthetic and orthotic device development; Research toward osseointegration of upper extremity prostheses; Research on treatment of non-battle orthopaedic injuries that impact unit readiness and reflect historical return to work rates less than 50% or longer than 6 months; Physical or occupational therapy (PT/OT) interventions to establish optimal rehabilitation and examine the comparative effectiveness of different PT/OT regimes; Clinical trials to restore function after volumetric muscle loss. |
