Changes to NIH clinical trial applications in 2017 - The new policy is targeted to apply to applications submitted for due dates on or after September 27, 2017. All clinical trial applications will need to contain key clinical trial-specific elements, such as protocol information. This change will mean that you will no longer be able to submit an application requesting support for a clinical trial on one of NIH's parent announcements. You will need to identify an FOA that clearly invites clinical trial applications. Please see the links below for additional information:
