The National Institutes of Health (NIH), specifically the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), has announced its intent to publish a new funding opportunity, identified as NOT-AA-24-001. This notice of intent is a precursor to a formal Request for Applications (RFA) for late-phase clinical trials within the Alcohol-associated Hepatitis Clinical Network (AlcHepNet). The upcoming grant aims to continue the advancement of research in treating and understanding alcohol-associated liver disease, specifically focusing on improving biomedical, psychosocial, and quality of life outcomes for patients with advanced stages of this condition.
This forthcoming funding opportunity is designed to support both the clinical research sites and the Data Coordinating Center (DCC) within AlcHepNet, reinforcing the NIH’s commitment to addressing the complex challenges associated with alcohol-related health issues. Eligible applicants include a wide array of organizations, such as state and county governments, public and private higher education institutions, small businesses, nonprofits, and Native American tribal entities. The announcement of this grant is a crucial step in enabling potential applicants to prepare for the submission process, encouraging the development of meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. The expected publication date for the RFA is late December 2023 or early January 2024, with an application due date projected for late February or early March 2024. This initiative underscores the NIH’s dedication to facilitating cutting-edge research and clinical trials that can significantly impact patients’ lives affected by alcohol-associated hepatitis.

| Description: | This NIH Research Career Enhancement Award (K18) program invites applications from experienced investigators seeking to redirect or expand their research programs through the acquisition of new skills and knowledge in the area of firearm mortality and injury prevention research, which is beyond and complementary to their current areas of expertise. The program will support research training and career development experiences and a small-scale research project that will provide experienced investigators with the scientific competencies required to conduct research relevant to firearm morality and injury prevention research. Eligible candidates are independent investigators at any faculty rank or level. The proposed project must be related to the programmatic interests of one or more of the participating NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs) based on their scientific missions. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is designed specifically for applicants proposing to serve as the lead investigator of an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, or a separate ancillary study to an existing trial, as part of their research and career development. Applicants not planning an independent clinical trial, or proposing to gain research experience in a clinical trial led by another investigator, must apply to companion NOFO (TEMP 24908). |
