Consortium for Clinical Trials on Anemia in Older Persons (U01): -Purpose. The National Institute on Aging (NIA) invites applications for a clinical trials consortium to facilitate clinical trials on anemia in older persons consistent with the recommendations of the NIA Advisory Panel. During the six-year support period, the awardee will develop protocols and study procedures and implement several phase II clinical trials on effects of interventions against anemia or low normal hemoglobin levels on hematologic, clinical, and functional outcomes in older persons. It is expected that studies with different protocols will run concurrently at a given clinical site. The topics of these protocols will be decided and prioritized cooperatively by the Consortium Steering Committee and implemented after review and approval by the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) and NIA. Awardees can also develop and implement pilot translational and exploratory studies informing designs of the future trials. First year of the award will provide funds to structure consortium operations and finalize protocol, data collection forms, and manual of procedures for the first trial. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the U01 Cooperative Agreement grant mechanism.
