Program Activities

New NIDA PAs

On February 16, 2007, NIDA issued the PA entitled NIDA Research Education Grants in Drug Abuse and Addiction (R25) (PAR-07-221). This FOA invites applications focused on research education and research curriculum development and/or program building in the area of drug abuse and addiction research. The focus should be primarily on clinical research, with preclinical research included to directly inform or provide a mechanistic foundation and/or for the purposes of supporting translational research training.

On February 21, 2007, NIDA issued the PA entitled Neuroscience Research on Drug Abuse (R01) (PA-07-226). Through this PA, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) requests research grant applications in the areas of neuroscience and behavioral neuroscience research that are relevant to the understanding of the process(es) and mechanisms underlying drug abuse and addiction, including use, dependence, addiction, withdrawal, and treatment, and may be conducted using model systems, animals, and/or humans.

On February 21, 2007, NIDA issued the PA entitled Neuroscience Research on Drug Abuse (R21) (PA-07-227). Through this PA, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) requests research grant applications in the areas of neuroscience and behavioral neuroscience research that are relevant to the understanding of the process(es) and mechanisms underlying drug abuse and addiction, including use, dependence, addiction, withdrawal, and treatment, and may be conducted using model systems, animals, and/or humans.

On February 22, 2007, NIDA issued the PA entitled Neuroscience Research on Drug Abuse (R03) (PA-07-228). Through this PA, NIDA requests research grant applications in the areas of neuroscience and behavioral neuroscience research that are relevant to the understanding of the process(es) and mechanisms underlying drug abuse and addiction, including use, dependence, addiction, withdrawal, and treatment, and may be conducted using model systems, animals, and/or humans.

On February 23, 2007, NIDA issued a PA entitled Collaborative Clinical Trials in Drug Abuse (R01) (PAR-07-232). Through this PA NIDA seeks to increase the collaboration of investigators at different sites in order to address critical issues in the treatment of substance-related disorders that require sample sizes greater than a single site can reasonably attain. The expectation for the collaborative effort is that there will be implementation of common clinical trials across different sites in order to study patient outcomes, patient factors, provider factors, setting characteristics, interactions of these, or other effects where pooled samples are appropriate and necessary for the hypotheses under consideration.

On March 22, 2007, NIDA issued a PA entitled Medications Development for the Treatment of Amphetamine and Amphetamine-Like Related Disorders (R01) (PA-07-333). The goal of this program announcement is to encourage preclinical and clinical research directed towards the identification, evaluation and development of safe and effective medications for the treatment of Amphetamine and Amphetamine-like Related Disorders (ARDs), most importantly methamphetamine abuse and methamphetamine dependence. According to the DSM-IV-TR, the class of amphetamine and amphetamine-like substances includes all substances with a substituted-phenylethylamine structure, such as amphetamine, dextroamphetamine, methamphetamine, and MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine). Also included are those substances that are structurally different but have amphetamine-like action, such as methylphenidate, some agents used as appetite suppressants, and khat. Amphetamines, amphetamine-like substances and methamphetamine especially, are highly addictive central nervous system stimulants that can be injected, snorted, smoked, or ingested orally. Of all the ARDs, prevalence data is most readily available for methamphetamine abuse and dependence. This data indicates that methamphetamine use continues to be a major public health concern in the United States for all segments of the population. Methamphetamine is unique in that it can be easily manufactured in clandestine laboratories using store-bought materials and is the most prevalent synthetic drug manufactured in the United States. The ease of manufacturing methamphetamine and its highly addictive potential has caused the use of the drug to greatly increase throughout the Nation. The methamphetamine problem was originally concentrated in the West of the United States, but has since spread throughout almost every major metropolitan area in the country, due to the low cost, high availability, and addictive properties of this substance. There are currently no effective pharmacological treatments for ARDs and there has been limited research focused on the identification and development of medications to treat these disorders, as well as research on the health effects of chronic abuse. For these reasons, the NIDA is encouraging research in this area.

On March 22, 2007, NIDA issued a PA entitled Medications Development for the Treatment of Amphetamine and Amphetamine-Like Related Disorders (R21) (PA-07-334). The goal of this program announcement is to encourage preclinical and clinical research directed towards the identification, evaluation and development of safe and effective medications for the treatment of Amphetamine and Amphetamine-like Related Disorders (ARDs), most importantly methamphetamine abuse and methamphetamine dependence. According to the DSM-IV-TR, the class of amphetamine and amphetamine-like substances includes all substances with a substituted-phenylethylamine structure, such as amphetamine, dextroamphetamine, methamphetamine, and MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine). Also included are those substances that are structurally different but have amphetamine-like action, such as methylphenidate, some agents used as appetite suppressants, and khat.

There are currently no effective pharmacological treatments for ARDs and there has been limited research focused on the identification and development of medications to treat these disorders, as well as research on the health effects of chronic abuse. For these reasons, the NIDA is encouraging research in this area.

On March 30, NIDA issued a PA entitled NIDA Mentored Clinical Scientists Development Program Award in Drug Abuse and Addiction (K12) (PAR-07-346). The goal of NIH-supported career development programs is to help ensure that a diverse pool of highly trained scientists is available in adequate numbers and in appropriate research areas to address the Nation's biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs. The purpose of the NIDA Mentored Clinical Scientists Development Award in Drug Abuse and Addiction (K12) is to support the career development of clinical investigators who have made a commitment to research independence.

On April 3, 2007, NIDA issued a PA entitled AIDS-Science Track Award for Research Transition (R03) (PA-07-349). HIV/AIDS research is a major focus at NIDA, and this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is designed to facilitate the entry of new investigators and early career investigators to the area of drug abuse research on HIV/AIDS. This FOA, AIDS--Science Track Award for Research Transition (A-START), solicits Small Research Grant (R03) applications to support feasibility, secondary data analysis, and small, self-contained studies on drug abuse and HIV/AIDS. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) seeks to facilitate the entry of both newly independent and early career investigators to the area of drug abuse research on HIV/AIDS.

On April 24, 2007, NIDA issued a PA entitled Medications Development for the Treatment of Cannabis-Related Disorders (R01) (PA-07-365). This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits new or competing renewal Research Project Grant (R01) applications from institutions/ organizations that propose to conduct preclinical and clinical research directed towards the identification, evaluation and development of safe and effective medications for the treatment of Cannabis Related Disorders (CRDs) and their medical and psychiatric consequences. They include the Cannabis Use Disorders (CUDs) such cannabis abuse and dependence, the Cannabis Induced Disorders (CIDs) such as intoxication, psychosis, and anxiety, as well as the comorbidity of these disorders with other medical and psychiatric disorders (e.g., depression). Cannabis use includes marijuana, hashish, and other tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) containing substances. NIDA is encouraging research in this area because there is a high prevalence of marijuana use in the general population accompanied with an increasing misperception that its use poses low health risk, there is limited research in this area, and there are no effective pharmacological treatments available for these disorders.

On April 25, 2007, NIDA issued a PA entitled Medications Development for the Treatment of Cannabis-Related Disorders (R21) (PA-07-366). This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) solicits Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant applications from applicant organizations that propose to conduct preclinical and clinical research directed towards the identification, evaluation and development of safe and effective medications for the treatment of Cannabis Related Disorders (CRDs) and their medical and psychiatric consequences. They include the Cannabis Use Disorders (CUDs) such cannabis abuse and dependence, the Cannabis Induced Disorders (CIDs) such as intoxication, psychosis, and anxiety, as well as the comorbidity of these disorders with other medical and psychiatric disorders (e.g., depression). Cannabis use includes marijuana, hashish, and other tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) containing substances. NIDA is encouraging research in this area because there is a high prevalence of marijuana use in the general population accompanied with an increasing misperception that its use poses low health risk, there is limited research in this area, and there are no effective pharmacological treatments available for these disorders.

International Program Announcement Expanded to R03 and R21 Grants

NIDA has expanded its Program Announcement (PA) on International Research Collaboration on Drug Addiction to use two additional funding mechanisms. In addition to the traditional Research Project Grants, known as R01 awards, scientists are now invited to submit grant applications that propose international collaborative research using the Small Grant Award, also known as an R03, and the Exploratory/Developmental Research Grants, or R21 awards. NIDA issues PAs to formally express ongoing interest in funding a particular area of science. Applications under the three PAs on International Research Collaboration may be for new or continuing funding and must:

Take advantage of special opportunities that exist outside the United States - such as unusual talent, resources, populations, or environmental conditions.

Be conducted by U.S. investigators in collaboration with non-U.S.-based investigators.

Address NIDA's scientific priority areas, which currently include linkages between HIV/AIDS and drug abuse, adolescent and prenatal tobacco exposure, methamphetamine abuse, inhalant abuse, and drugged driving.

Specific application requirements and deadlines differ for the three grant mechanisms and are available in the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts:

R01: PA-07-275 (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-07-275.html).

R03: PA-07-311 (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-07-311.html).

R21: PA-07-310 (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-07-310.html).

On April 2, 2007, NIDA, in collaboration with numerous other NIH components, issued a PA entitled AIDS International Training and Research Program (D43) (PAR-07-348). The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite applications from eligible institutions for innovative, collaborative research training programs that would contribute to the long-term goal of building sustainable research capacity in HIV-related conditions at institutions in low- and middle-income countries.

On February 21, 2007, NIDA, in collaboration with NIMH and NICHD, issued a PA entitled Developmental Psychopharmacology (R21) (PA-07-222). The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to request research applications to examine the neurobiological impact of psychotherapeutic medications upon the immature brain, with particular emphasis upon mapping the precise developmental profile of physiological response to psychotropic agents used in the treatment of mental disorders in children. Appropriate research includes studies in model systems, including animals, and in human populations.

On February 23, 2007, NIDA, in collaboration with numerous other NIH components issued a PA entitled Continued Development and Maintenance of Software (R01) (PAR-07-235). Biomedical research laboratories increasingly undertake a software development project to solve a problem of interest to that laboratory. These software packages sometimes become useful to a much broader community of users that can include translational and clinical researchers. The goal of this program announcement is to support the continued development, maintenance, testing and evaluation of existing software. The proposed work should apply best practices and proven methods for software design, construction, and implementation to extend the applicability of existing biomedical informatics/computational biology software to a broader biomedical research community.

On March 15, 2007, NIDA, in collaboration with NIAAA, issued a PA entitled Women and Sex/Gender Differences in Drug and Alcohol Abuse/Dependence (R01) (PA-07-329).

Protocol CTN 0021, (Motivational Enhancement Treatment to Improve Treatment Engagement and Outcome for Spanish-Speaking Individuals Seeking Treatment for Substance Abuse). This is the first Spanish-only protocol in the CTN.

These protocols have ended new enrollment and are in either follow-up or data-lock phase:

Protocol CTN 0014, Brief Strategic Family Therapy for Adolescent Drug Abusers (BSFT), has been implemented at eight sites. The study reached its enrollment target of 480 randomized participants in January 2007.

Protocol CTN 0015, (Women's Treatment for Trauma and Substance Use Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial) began in March 2004. The study reached its enrollment target in October 2005, and follow-up continues until spring 2007.

Four protocols are currently enrolling:

Protocol CTN 0027, Starting Treatment with Agonist Replacement Therapies (START) is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study that was developed in collaboration with the Division of Pharmacotherapies & Medical Consequences of Drug Abuse (DPMCDA). Enrollment began in April 2006. As of February 28, 2007, there were 216 randomized participants.

Protocol CTN 0028, Randomized Controlled Trial of Osmotic-Release Methylphenidate (OROS MPH) for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Adolescents with Substance Use Disorders (SUD). Enrollment is now open at 11 sites. Sixty-five participants have been randomized.

Protocol CTN 0029, A Pilot Study of Osmotic-Release Methylphenidate (OROS MPH) in Initiating and Maintaining Abstinence in Smokers with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This study is being carried out at six community treatment sites across five Nodes. There are a total of 165 randomized participants.

Protocol CTN 0030, Prescription Opioid Addiction Treatment Study (POATS) is a randomized 2-phase, open-label, multi-center study in outpatient treatment settings. Pre-screening began in May 2006. The study is being carried out in 11 sites. Sixty-eight participants have been randomized.

Two protocols are in the development phase:

Protocol CTN 0031, Stimulant Abuser Groups to Engage in 12-Step (STAGE-12): Evaluation of a Combined Individual-Group Intervention to Reduce Stimulant and Other Drug Use by Increasing 12-Step Involvement. The DSMB approved the protocol on January 29, 2007. The process for selecting Community Treatment Programs (CTPs) to serve as research sites has proceeded in two waves for implementation. Three CTPs were selected for Wave 1, based on combined ranking of interviews and Executive Committee consensus. The three CTPs selected for Wave 1 are Maryhaven from the Ohio Valley Node, ChangePoint from the Oregon/Hawaii Node, and Recovery Centers of King County from the Washington Node. Currently, the protocol Executive Committee is working to finalize the Standard Operations Manual and the Therapy Training Manual.

Protocol CTN 0032, HIV Rapid Testing and Counseling Protocol. This protocol is under development. This study seeks to evaluate the most effective strategy to ensure that persons in drug treatment programs are tested for HIV and receive their HIV test results. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has made it a priority to bring HIV rapid testing and counseling into outpatient health care settings for high-risk populations. Protocol 0032 was approved for development in late November 2006, and the protocol team meets regularly by conference call. The DSMB is being formed for possible submission of the completed protocol during summer/fall 2007.

In addition to the primary CTN trials, there are currently 28 funded studies supported by independent grants that use CTN studies as a platform.
