The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is offering the Immunobiology of Xenotransplantation Cooperative Research Program (IXCRP) grant to institutions. This grant aims to develop preclinical porcine-to-nonhuman primate models for various xenotransplantations to understand rejection mechanisms, improve graft survival, and address physiological compatibility. The program’s goal is to pave the way for future clinical applications of xenotransplantation. Applications for this grant must focus on pancreatic islet, kidney, heart, lung, or liver xenotransplantation. Closing date for applications is September 16, 2019.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications from institutions to participate in the Immunobiology of Xenotransplantation Cooperative Research Program (IXCRP), for the development of preclinical porcine-to-nonhuman primate (NHP) models of pancreatic islet, kidney, heart, lung, or liver xenotransplantation. The goals of this program are to: (1) delineate the cellular and molecular mechanisms of xenograft rejection and/or the induction of immune tolerance; (2) develop effective strategies to improve xenograft survival; and (3) characterize and address the physiological compatibility/limitations of xenografts. The long-term goal of this program is to develop strategies for application of xenotransplantation in the clinic. |
