Synopsis
Summary: This funding mechanism supports planning and development activities and pilot studies that will generate preliminary data and demonstrate feasibility for achieving the aims of a future interventional study. Successful studies may be submitted to a future Lupus Research Program (LRP) Transformative Vision Award (TVA), or equivalent, for funding consideration (See Funding Opportunity Number HT942526LRPTVA for additional information). Research must address at least one of the fiscal year 2026 (FY26) LRP Transformative Vision Development Award (TVDA) focus areas. This funding mechanism allows for phase 0/1 clinical trials, if appropriate. The mechanism does not allow for phase 2/3 clinical trials or animal studies.
Distinctive Features:
• Preliminary data are permitted but not required.
• Applications must include at least one lupus consumer advocate as a member of the research team.
• An individual may be named as Principal Investigator (PI) on only one application per LRP award mechanism (Idea Award, Impact Award, TVDA, TVA), for a maximum of four applications to the FY26 LRP.
Who can apply
- Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity above), subject to any clarification in text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility"
