Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network: The National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) the Office of Rare Diseases, National Institutes of Health (ORD, NIH), the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) invite applications for Rare Diseases Clinical Research Centers (RDCRCs) and a Data and Technology Coordinating Center (DTCC), which together will form the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network. The purpose of this cooperative research network is to facilitate clinical research in rare diseases through support for 1) collaborative clinical research in rare diseases, including longitudinal studies of individuals with rare diseases, clinical studies, phase one and two trials, and/or pilot and demonstration projects; 2) training of clinical investigators in rare diseases research; 3) a test bed for distributed clinical data management that incorporates novel approaches and technologies for data management, data mining, and data sharing across rare diseases, data types, and platforms; and 4) access to information related to rare diseases for basic and clinical researchers, academic and practicing physicians, patients, and the lay public. Each RDCRC must include a consortium of clinical investigators, institutions, GCRCs, and relevant organizations, including patient support organizations, for the study of a subgroup of rare diseases. The DTCC, a collaboration between data base and computational/computer science innovators, will provide a scalable coordinated clinical data management system for collection, storage, and analysis of data of RDCRCs, a portal and tools for integration of developed and publicly available datasets for data mining at RDCRCs, web based recruitment and referral, and a user friendly resource site for the public, research scientists, and clinicians. This cooperative program should facilitate identification of biomarkers for disease risk, disease severity/activity, and clinical outcome and encourage development of new approaches to diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of rare diseases.
