INTER-INSTITUTE PROGRAM FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AIDS-RELATED THERAPEUTICS Release Date: April 24, 2001 NOTICE: NOT-AI-01-021 National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases National Cancer Institute Letter of Intent: May 1, 2001 Application Receipt Date: June 1, 2001 The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), invite the submission of proposals to an ongoing drug development program initiative. This program is designed to help AIDS research investigators facilitate the preclinical development of: 1) therapies for the treatment of HIV disease, AIDS-associated malignancies, opportunistic infections and tuberculosis associated with AIDS, and 2) microbicide-based prevention strategies for HIV. The program does NOT fund grants. Instead, applications to the program are requests to NIAID and NCI to use their drug development resources to conduct specific tasks the applicants themselves are unable to carry out in their efforts to translate basic research findings to applied or clinical practice. Examples of tasks that may be requested include High Throughput Screen (HTS) assay development, evaluation in animal efficacy models, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) scale-up synthesis of small molecules and biologics, clinical dosage formulation and manufacturing, and Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) toxicology. Program proposals will be solicited twice a year and reviewed in a competitive manner. The current deadline for receipt of applications is June 1, 2001; prior to that date (no later than May 1) a Letter of Intent must be submitted to the Inter-Institute Program Coordinator. Further information about this program, including detailed instructions for preparing proposals and the Letter of Interest, can be found at the program web site at http://dtp.nci.nih.gov/docs/dart.html INQUIRIES Inter-Institute Program Coordinator 6130 Executive Boulevard, Suite 8000 Rockville, MD 20852 Telephone: (301) 496-8720 Fax: (301) 402-0831 E-mail: iip@dtpax2.ncifcrf.gov
