About this opportunity

The PCRP Clinical Consortium Award mechanism was first offered in FY05, and again in FY13. In FY16, the Clinical Consortium Research Site Award was offered. A total of 75 Clinical Consortium Award applications have been received, and 42 have been recommended for funding.The anticipated direct costs budgeted for the entire period of performance for an FY17 PCRP Clinical Consortium Award will not exceed $3,600,000 for the Coordinating Center and will not exceed $600,000 for each Clinical Research Site. Refer to Section II.D.5, Funding Restrictions, for detailed funding information.The Clinical Consortium Award mechanism provides the support to develop and enhance collaborations and resources necessary for a network of organizations to rapidly execute Phase II or Phase II-linked Phase I (Phase I/II) prostate cancer clinical trials. These trials will include investigations of high-impact, novel therapeutic agents or approaches for the management or treatment of prostate cancer, especially as pertaining to the FY17 PCRP Overarching Challenges. Support from this award is directed toward consortium infrastructure needs rather than direct support of the research itself. In accordance with PCRP goals, the conduct of Phase I/II trials that incorporate investigations of biomarkers for risk assessment, early detection, prediction of aggressiveness, and/or progression of prostate cancer is particularly encouraged.The principal goal of the Clinical Consortium Award is to combine the efforts of leading investigators to bring to market high-impact, novel therapeutic interventions that will ultimately and significantly decrease the impact of the disease. To facilitate global investigations, Principal Investigators (PIs) from both and international institutions are encouraged to apply. Submissions from institutions with enhanced access to patients in the Military Health System and/or from disproportionately affected populations (including, but not limited to, socioeconomic status, access to health ethnicity) are especially encouraged.The FY17 PCRP Clinical Consortium Award mechanism will be used to select and fund a single Coordinating Center and two Clinical Research Sites. PIs will be required to indicate whether the institution is applying as either the Coordinating Center with a Clinical Research Site or as a Clinical Research Site only. PIs applying as the Coordinating Center, if not selected for funding, have the option to still be considered as a Clinical Research Site only. The Coordinating Center and Clinical Research Sites will be jointly responsible for conducting Phase II and Phase I/II clinical trials focused on prostate cancer therapeutic interventions. The PCRP Clinical Consortium is expected to consist of one Coordinating Center and approximately 8 to 12 Clinical Research Sites. The Coordinating Center and Clinical Research Sites funded by the FY17 PCRP Clinical Consortium Award will work with other currently funded FY16 PCRP Clinical Research Sites. Additional details regarding the structure of the consortium are described in detail below.The Coordinating Center, in addition to functioning as a Clinical Research Site, will serve as the consortium information and planning nexus providing data management support services to participating Clinical Research Sites to implement consortium clinical trials in a timely manner. Responsibilities of the Coordinating Center will include the clinical trial selection process, protocol coordination, regulatory coordination, study management and monitoring, data collection, management and statistics, and intellectual/material property coordination. The Coordinating Center will also be responsible for preparing two clinical trials, with funding already secured, to be initiated by the consortium within the first 3 months of the performance period.
