This grant, offered by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), and the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is for validating candidate biomarkers related to human diseases. Specifically, it targets conditions of the liver, kidney, urological tract, digestive and hematologic systems, endocrine and metabolic disorders, diabetes, and obesity, where current biomarkers are invasive, expensive, or non-existent. The purpose is to establish reliable assays for validated markers or provide new technologies for monitoring. This initiative aims to advance translational research and replace prohibitive clinical end points, focusing on validation rather than biomarker discovery projects.

| Description: | Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), and the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) of the National Institutes of Health, will provide resources to validate candidate biomarkers for well-defined human diseases of the liver, kidney, urological tract, and digestive and hematologic systems, as well as endocrine and metabolic disorders, diabetes and its complications, and obesity, for which there are no or very few biomarkers, or for which standard biomarkers are currently prohibitively invasive or expensive. A biomarker is an indicator of a disease process, and could replace hard clinical end points as a measure of the effect of new therapies. Appropriate studies will validate candidate biomarkers in well-defined patient populations, provide new technologies to monitor biomarkers or establish reliable assays for validated markers. Progress in this area has the potential to advance translational research related to efficacy of treatments and bio-behavioral interventions. This FOA is not appropriate for biomarker discovery projects. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism. Developmental/Exploratory Research (R21) applications within the scientific scope of the FOA can be submitted in response to the NIH Parent R21 PA http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-06-181.html. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications. |
