DoD Spinal Cord Injury Investigator-Initiated Research Award: The SCIRP Investigator-Initiated Research Award (IIRA) mechanism was first offered in FY09. Since then, 104 Investigator-Initiated Research Award applications have been received, and 19 have been recommended for funding. The IIRA is intended to support studies that have the potential to make an important contribution to SCI research and/or patient care. Projects should be innovative, address an Area of Encouragement, and be applicable to the health care needs of military Service members, veterans, and/or their caregivers and family members. All applications must specifically and clearly address the military relevance of the proposed research. Collaboration with military researchers and clinicians is encouraged. Research projects may focus on any phase of research from basic through translational, including preclinical studies in animal models or human subjects, as well as correlative studies associated with an existing clinical trial. Observations that drive a research idea may be derived from laboratory discovery, population-based studies, a clinicians first-hand knowledge of patients, or anecdotal data. Applications must include preliminary data that is relevant to SCI and the proposed project. Research involving human subjects and human anatomical substances is permitted; however, clinical trials are NOT ALLOWED under this funding opportunity. A clinical trial is defined as a prospective accrual of human subjects where an intervention (e.g., device, drug, biologic, surgical procedure, rehabilitative modality, behavioral intervention, or other) is tested on a human subject for a measurable outcome with respect to exploratory information, safety, effectiveness, and/or efficacy. This outcome represents a direct effect on the human subject of that intervention or interaction. The SCIRP encourages clinical trials with a focus on rehabilitation through the FY11 SCIRP Clinical Trial Award Rehabilitation mechanism (Funding Opportunity Number: W81XWH-11-SCIRP-CTA). Use of Human Subjects and Human Anatomical Substances: All DOD-funded research involving new and ongoing research with human subjects and human anatomical substances must be reviewed and approved by the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) Office of Research Protections (ORP), Human Research Protection Office (HRPO), in addition to the local Institutional Review Board (IRB) of record. Local IRB approval at the time of submission is NOT required. The HRPO is mandated to comply with specific laws and directives governing all research involving human subjects that is supported by the DOD. These laws and directives are rigorous and detailed, and will require information in addition to that supplied to the local IRB. Allow a minimum of 4 months for regulatory review and approval processes. Refer to the General Application Instructions, Appendix 5, for more information.
