About this opportunity

The SCIRP Clinical Trial Award � Rehabilitation (CTA-R) mechanism was first offered in FY09. Since then, 30 Clinical Trial Award � Rehabilitation applications have been received, and 7 have been recommended for funding. The CTA-R supports rapid implementation of Phase 0, I, or II clinical trials with the potential to have a significant impact on the understanding of spinal cord injury and amelioration of its consequences. All studies must be focused on rehabilitative aspects of SCI, and be applicable to the health care needs of military Service members, veterans, and/or their caregivers and family members. Funding from this award mechanism must support a clinical trial and cannot be used for preclinical research studies. A clinical trial is defined as a prospective accrual of human subjects where an intervention ( procedure, rehabilitative modality, behavioral intervention, or other) is tested on a human subject for a measurable outcome with respect to exploratory , and/or efficacy. This outcome represents a direct effect on the human subject of that intervention or interaction. Principal Investigators (PIs) seeking funding for a preclinical research project should utilize one of the other applicable FY11 SCIRP award mechanisms/funding opportunities being offered (for more information about those mechanisms, see http://cdmrp.army.mil). The term �human subjects� is used in this Program Announcement/Funding Opportunity to refer to individuals who will be recruited for or who will participate in the proposed clinical trial. Clinical trials require informed consent on the subject, and may include identifiable information. If the study proposed involves the use of a drug that has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its investigational use, then an Investigational New Drug (IND)application to the FDA may be required and must be submitted to the FDA prior to the grant submission. If the proposed study involves an Investigational Device that has not been approved or cleared by FDA for its investigational clinical use, the study may be required to comply with the FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) regulations. If applicable, the IDE application must be submitted prior to the grant submission. The Government reserves the right to withdraw funding if the documented status of the IND or IDE has not been obtained within 6 months of the award date. The following are important aspects of submission for the Clinical Trial Award � Rehabilitation: � The proposed clinical trial is expected to begin no later than 12 months after the award date. � Demonstrate a clear focus on SCI rehabilitation. � Be applicable to the health care needs of military Service members, veterans, and/or their caregivers and family members. � The proposed research project should also be based on sound scientific rationale that is established through logical reasoning and critical review and analysis of the literature. � Include preliminary data that are relevant to the proposed research project; Phase I or pilot clinical trial data are required for Phase II clinical trial applications. � Demonstrate availability of and access to a suitable human subject population that will support a meaningful outcome for the study; include appropriate controls; discuss how accrual goals will be achieved, and how standards of care may impact the study population. � Describe appropriate and clearly defined endpoints for the proposed clinical trial that correspond to the design and sample size proposed. � Clearly articulate the statistical analysis plan. Include appropriate statistical expertise and provide a power analysis reflecting sample size projections that will clearly answer the objectives of the study. � Discuss the potential impact of the study results for patients with SCI.
