The National Cancer Institute is offering a grant to support research focusing on the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) microenvironment. The aim is to develop new immunotherapy and combination interventions based on understanding the tumor-microenvironment interaction for improved responses in both pre-clinical and clinical settings. The grant encourages collaboration with NCI-based early phase networks and industry or cancer centers for further evaluation of the interventions. Applications should align with advancing knowledge and strategies in the field of PDAC research.

| Description: | The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to stimulate research in the area of PDAC microenvironment with the ultimate goal of understanding the interaction between tumors and the microenvironment. The plan is to design new immunotherapy and combination interventions that would accommodate and build on the distinct characteristics of this interaction. It is expected that the interventions will lead to improved responses in pre-clinical models and clinical evaluation either in NCI-based early phase networks (ETCTN), or by industry or cancer centers. |
