About this opportunity

The PRORP Clinical Trial Award supports the rapid implementation of clinical trials with the potential to have a significant impact on the treatment or management of military combat-related orthopaedic injuries or non-battle injuries that significantly impact unit readiness and return toduty/work rates. Applicants are encouraged to address how the proposed research will support patient care closer to the point of injury and/or allow patients to more quickly return to duty/work. Clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, clinical guidance, and/or emerging approaches and technologies. Proposed projects may range from small proof-of-concept trials ( pilot, first in human, phase 0), to demonstrate feasibility or inform the design of more advanced trials, through large-scale trials to determine efficacy in relevant patient populations.The FY21 PRORP CTA differs from the FY21 PRORP Clinical Translational Research Award (CTRA) in that the CTRA allows for clinical research projects, whereas the CTA is restricted to clinical trials only.Applications to the FY21 PRORP Clinical Trial Award mechanism must support a clinical trial and may not be used for animal or preclinical studies.A clinical trial is defined as a research study in which one or more human subjects are prospectively assigned to one or more interventions (which may include placebo or other control) to evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or behavioral health-related outcomes. For more information, a Human Subject Resource Document is provided at https://cdmrp.army.mil/pubs/pdf/Human%20Subjects%20Resource%20Document.pdf. Principal Investigators (PIs) seeking funding for a preclinical research project should consider one of the other FY21 PRORP program announcements being offered.All applications submitted to this program announcement, regardless of the selected Focus Area, are eligible for Research Level 1.Rehabilitation Option (Research Level 2): Applications submitted to the FY21 PRORP CTA Translation of Early Findings – Soft Tissue Trauma Focus Area are eligible for a Rehabilitation Option (Research Level 2; refer to Section II.D.5. Funding Restrictions). The Rehabilitation Option provides additional support to encourage collaborative interdisciplinary research among physical therapists, occupational other orthopaedic care providers. The proposed research should include both surgical and rehabilitation strategies that create a cohesive project. Surgical strategies are reconstruction and repair and/or application of devices for the purpose of restoration of native function of traumatically injured tissues. Rehabilitative strategies are those that restore function following injury or illness, with the goal of optimal health and independence. Projects should integrate principles and approaches from surgical and rehabilitative strategies, beyond what each approach would provide by itself, with the goal of optimizing independence for those who have sustained traumatic orthopaedic injuries. The rehabilitation strategy and the standard of care must be specified. Projects that follow patients across the continuum of care are highly encouraged. To encourage meaningful and productive multidisciplinary collaborations, projects submitted for this option must include at least one investigator with orthopaedic rehabilitation expertise and at least one clinician who specializes in orthopaedic or trauma care. A Letter(s) of Collaboration from both specialists (rehabilitation expert and surgeon) is required for this option.
