| Category | Call for proposal |
Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Lunch Cancer Research Program (LCRP) for 2019. The Investigator-Initiated Translational Research Award supports translational research that will develop promising ideas in lung cancer into clinical applications.
Observations that drive a research idea may originate from a laboratory discovery, population-based studies, or a clinician’s firsthand knowledge of patient care. The ultimate goal of translational research is to move a concept or observation forward into clinical application.
This mechanism is intended to fund a broad range of translational studies, including, but not limited to, the following:
The LCRP seeks to support research that is relevant to the healthcare needs of military Service members, Veterans, and their families. Military relevance will be considered in determining relevance to the mission of the FY19 LCRP during programmatic review.
Funding: Maximum USD $ 400’000
Duration: 2 years
Eligibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions are eligible to apply, and there are no citizenship restrictions. Investigators at the level of Assistant Professor or above are eligible to submit applications.
How to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact information, a list of collaborators and key personnel, a proposal narrative, and supporting documents as suggested on the platform. Full applications (by invitation) will be made via a Grants.gov workspace. Full application packages can be downloaded from Grants.gov at any time.
Pre-Application Deadline: 15 May 2019, 5:00 p.m. EST (23:00 CET)
Full Application Deadline: 21 August 2019, 11:59 p.m. EST (05:59 22 Aug, CET)
Grants.gov Funding Opportunity Number: W81XWH-19-LCRP-IITRA

Observations that drive a research idea may originate from a laboratory discovery, population-based studies, or a clinician’s firsthand knowledge of patient care. The ultimate goal of translational research is to move a concept or observation forward into clinical application.
This mechanism is intended to fund a broad range of translational studies, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Studies advancing/translating in vitro and/or animal studies to applications with human samples/cohorts.
- Late-stage preclinical work leading to/preparing for a clinical trial, e.g., Investigational New Drug (IND) application submission.
- Correlative studies that are associated with an open/ongoing or completed clinical trial and projects that develop endpoints for clinical trials.
