Section II

Eligibility

Foreign institutions are eligible to apply. Eligible agencies of the Federal Government can apply. Faith-based or community-based organizations can apply. PARTICIPATION OF CTN INVESTIGATORS Most research projects proposed under this FOA, whether ancillary or platform studies, will require participation, collaboration, cooperation, or other support by CTN investigators or community treatment program staff or patients. Although the CTN has created a research infrastructure of CTPs and RRTCs that will support studies such as those encouraged here, some prospective studies involving sites affiliated with the CTN may not be feasible given the mission, goals, and timetables of the CTN cooperative agreement program or of specific ongoing trials. Thus, it is incumbent on the Principal Investigator of proposed research to contact NIDA CCTN staff and/or CTN grantee personnel (i.e., RRTC PIs and CTP directors) early in the application development process, to submit documentation of support from CTN entities that would be affected, and to obtain written approval for access to any required data that has not yet reached the public domain. See announcement for full details.

Section III

Description

-This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits health services research in conjunction with NIDA s Clinical Trials Network (CTN). The CTN is a research partnership between more than 150 community treatment programs (CTPs) and drug abuse researchers in multiple sites across the country. With its extensive network of providers serving diverse populations of drug users, the CTN provides an infrastructure for the investigation of (a) systems-level factors that facilitate practice improvement in community treatment programs, and (b) new research tools to facilitate higher quality health services research on practice improvement in drug abuse treatment. -This FOA will use the Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-06-495, that solicits applications under the R01, and PA-06-497, that solicits applications under the R03. -Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications.
