Objectiu de la convocatòria
The Prostate Cancer Research Program seeks to promote highly innovative, groundbreaking research; high-impact research with near-term clinical relevance; multidisciplinary synergistic research; translational studies to support the fluid transfer of knowledge between bedside and bench; research on patient survivorship and quality of life; the next generation of prostate cancer investigators through mentored research; and research on disparities in the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer.
Característiques principals
PCRP Overarching Challenges
Consistent with the program’s overall goal, each PCRP funding opportunity either requires or encourages applications to address one of the following PCRP overarching challenges:
  • Develop effective treatments for advanced prostate cancer (i.e., disease progression with no available curative therapy)
  • Distinguish aggressive from indolent disease
    PCRP Focus Areas
    All applications for FY13 PCRP funding opportunities must also address at least one of the following PCRP focus areas:
  • Biomarker Development: Validation and qualification of biomarkers for early detection of clinically relevant disease or for prognosis or prediction and assessment of response to therapies
  • Genetics: Understanding host or tumor genetics and epigenetics responsible for susceptibility, disease progression, and treatment outcomes for clinically relevant prostate cancer
  • Imaging: Development of new anatomic, functional, and molecular imaging approaches for the detection and management of clinically relevant prostate cancer
  • Mechanisms of Resistance: Understanding primary and acquired resistance to therapy
  • Survivorship and Palliative Care: Improving the quality of life and well-being of prostate cancer patients and their families
  • Therapy: Identification of new targets, pathways, and therapeutic modalities
  • Tumor and Microenvironment Biology: Understanding the intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms contributing to tumor development and the progression of prostate cancer
    The PCRP is currently accepting applications for five award mechanisms. Each award mechanism has different funding limits and eligibility requirements. Please consult the Synopsis of PCRP FY2013 Award Mechanisms document in order to find the most convenient mechanism for your research project. You will find the complete information on the selected mechanism in the corresponding Program Announcement.
