About this opportunity

Orthopaedic injuries have a profound impact on military readiness and return to work/activity/duty. In the military, extremity battle wounds comprise approximately 50% of injuries reported in the Department of Defense Trauma Registry. Additionally, orthopaedic injuries and conditions that occur outside of combat ( during training, leisure activities, resultant from old injuries, etc.) present one of the greatest threats to the readiness of our Service Members and military. Early rehabilitation of orthopaedic injuries in both civilian and military populations have led to better outcomes, particularly in the prevention of secondary complications and in minimizing morbidity. Availability of orthopaedic care and treatment as early as possible, or as close to the point of injury as possible, also minimizes limb loss and affects military readiness. The PRORP is interested in supporting research that will have an impact on the lives of all individuals that have sustained a major musculoskeletal injury.The PRORP Clinical Translational Research Award (CTRA) is intended to support high-impact and/or new/emerging clinical research that may not be ready for a full-scale randomized controlled clinical trial. Projects should demonstrate potential to impact the standard of care, both immediate and long-term, as well as contribute to evidence-based guidelines for the evaluation and care of all patients with orthopaedic injuries.• One goal of the FY23 PRORP CTRA is to translate current and emerging techniques and interventions into the clinical space to better serve military patients. The health, functional abilities, and quality of life of individuals who have sustained an orthopaedic injury should be considered.• Another goal is to identify the most effective prevention options available to support critical decision-making for caregivers, and policymakers.The FY23 PRORP CTRA differs from the FY23 PRORP Clinical Trial Award (CTA) in that the CTRA allows for clinical research projects that may or may not include a clinical trial, whereas the CTA is restricted to clinical trials only.Applications to the FY23 PRORP Clinical Translational Research Award mechanism must support clinical research and may not be used for animal research. Applicants seeking support for studies involving animal research should consider applying to the FY23 PRORP Applied Research Award (Funding Opportunity Number HT9425-23-PRORP-ARA) mechanism.The proposed studies may be interventional and may involve some retrospective data analysis. Note that purely retrospective or database-related research is not allowed under this funding opportunity. Small pilot clinical trials with human subjects are allowable.Key aspects of the PRORP Clinical Translational Research Award Mechanism:• Preliminary data are required: Inclusion of preliminary data relevant to the proposed clinical study is required.• Study Population: The application should demonstrate the availability of and access to a suitable patient population that will support a meaningful outcome for the study. The application should include a discussion of how accrual goals will be achieved, as well as the strategy for inclusion of women and minorities in the clinical study appropriate to the objectives of the study.• Intervention Availability, as applicable: The application should demonstrate the documented availability of and access to the drug/compound, device, and/or other materials needed, as appropriate and applicable, for the proposed duration of the study.• Personnel and Environment: The application should demonstrate the study team’s expertise and experience in all aspects of conducting clinical research, including appropriate statistical analysis, knowledge of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) processes (if applicable), and data management.
