The National Cancer Institute is offering a grant to support research exploring the influence of early-life factors on cancer development later in life. This grant aims to investigate various early-life stages and events, such as in utero exposure, puberty, and adolescence, on the biological processes relevant to carcinogenesis. The goal is to identify predictive markers for cancer risk that can lead to the development of effective prevention strategies. By understanding how early-life events and exposures contribute to cancer etiology, interventions during pregnancy or early life could significantly impact cancer prevention efforts. Applications are accepted until Dec 20, 2017.

| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to stimulate research focused on the role of early-life factors in cancer development later in life.Given that current emerging evidence from limited research indicates a potentially important role for early-life events and exposures in cancer development, it is necessary to better understand 1) the early-life (maternal-paternal, in utero, birth and infancy, puberty and adolescence, and teenage and young adult years) factors that are associated with later cancer development; 2) how early-life factors mediate biological processes relevant to carcinogenesis; and 3) whether predictive markers for cancer risk based on what happens biologically at early-life can be measured and developed for use in cancer prevention strategies. Markers that predict malignancy or pre-malignant conditions would allow assessment of early-life exposures with relevant outcomes without having to wait 50 years for cancer development. Ultimately, a better mechanistic understanding of how early-life events and exposures contribute to the etiology of cancer later in life will allow for the development of effective interventions during pregnancy or early life that may have a profound impact on cancer prevention. |
