The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering this P20 grant to support planning efforts for establishing a National Center for Particle Beam Radiation Therapy (PBRT) Research. This funding aims to create a research center operating as an adjunct to an independently funded clinical PBRT facility. The purpose is to enable clinically relevant research using proton and heavier ion beams. Awardees will gain resources and expertise from a multidisciplinary team including physicists, engineers, biologists, and physicians, alongside access to research facilities like cell culture labs and vivariums. Applicants must propose at least one pilot project in areas such as particle beam delivery systems, dosimetry, radiation biology, or translational pre-clinical studies. This initiative is designed to develop a national research resource capable of securing future funding for specialized PBRT research, focusing solely on the research center’s planning.

| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage and support planning efforts for establishing a Center for Particle Beam Radiation Therapy (PBRT) Research. The Center must be planned to operate as a research center adjunct to an independently created and funded, sustainable clinical facility for PBRT. Ultimately, the proposed Center is expected to perform clinically relevant research using proton and heavier ion beams (including but not necessarily limited to carbon beams). The goal of this FOA is to provide the awardees with funding to enable inclusion of necessary resources (expertise or facilities) to carry out basic, and translational, and clinical research complementary to a clinical PBRT facility. The necessary expertise and efforts would be provided by a multidisciplinary team of basic, translational, and clinical researchers, including physicists, engineers, biologists, and physicians, while the research facilities may include, by way of example, cell culture laboratories, vivarium, and clinical anesthesia units for pediatric patients. Applicants responding to this FOA must propose at least one pilot project that will enable a PBRT research agenda in particle beam delivery systems, dosimetry, radiation biology, or translational pre-clinical studies. It is expected that this effort will lead to a national research resource capable of successfully competing for and securing the funding required to operate a specialized research center for clinical PBRT. This FOA is designed to support solely the planning for a Research Center at a separately funded PBRT facility, and not the PBRT facility itself. |
