DOD Breast Cancer Clinical Translational Research Award: The Breast Cancer Research Program (BCRP) Clinical Translational Research (CTR) Award mechanism was first introduced in FY97. Since that time, 216 Clinical Translational Research Award proposals have been received and 40 have been recommended for funding. The CTR Award is intended to promote substantial improvements over current approaches to breast cancer chemoprevention and therapy, including predictive biomarker studies that would better align treatment options with more specific breast cancer subtypes and/or may identify a new way to treat breast cancer patients. These awards are intended to support research projects that are likely to have a major impact on breast cancer by applying promising research findings to the treatment of patients with, or populations at risk for, breast cancer. Principal Investigators (PIs) may have originated projects in their laboratories that will form the basis for translational research leading to clinical trials to be conducted during this award period. Alternatively, PIs may leverage partnerships with industry (if the ability to conduct the required translational research and early phase clinical trial can be demonstrated). Proposals must include preliminary data and a solid rationale to support the feasibility of innovative translational research leading to a prospective clinical trial or study during the course of the award. Proposals also must include a clear experimental plan and a properly powered statistical plan to perform a prospective clinical trial. Investigators must demonstrate availability of and access to an appropriate patient population that will support a meaningful outcome for the study. Proposals addressing predictive biomarker studies must be supported by a previous, retrospective study and must include data validating the methods for the collection, storage, annotation, and analysis of human biological substances.
