The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) and National Cancer Institute (NCI) are offering an Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant. This grant is for stimulating research on clinical decision-making processes for individuals at risk for or faced with life-threatening illnesses. It supports studies on choices from adopting preventive behaviors through end-of-life care. Examples include decisions about HIV vaccine trials, genetic testing, selecting treatment interventions versus watchful waiting, choosing among multiple treatment options, joining therapeutic clinical trials, or making end-of-life care decisions. This opportunity aims to enhance understanding of critical health choices.

| Description: | Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health, seeks to stimulate research on the decision-making processes made by persons at risk for and those faced with life-threatening illness. These illnesses are ones that almost always lead to death in a fairly short period of time if left untreated, but may be chronic or even cured if dealt with early in the disease process. An example of a life-threatening illness that may be chronic for some years would be HIV infection when treated. An example of a life-threatening illness that may be cured in its early stages would be breast cancer. Decision-making can occur from the point of adopting preventive behaviors through the end of life. Examples of such decisions could include participating in an HIV vaccine clinical trial, testing for genetic disorder, choosing a treatment intervention vs. watchful waiting (as in early stage prostate cancer), choosing a treatment intervention among several options, joining a therapeutic clinical trial, or making end-of-life care decisions. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-09-122, that encourages applications under the R01 mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism, numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. |
