This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.396 - Cancer Biology Research) provides $649,679 to support research by The Institute For Cancer Research aimed at triggering a viral mimicry response in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) to enhance immunotherapy responsiveness. The key objectives are to determine how targeting the DHX9 helicase protein can induce the accumulation of immunogenic double-stranded RNAs and RNA-DNA hybrids in SCLC cells, leading to antiviral...
This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to New York University School of Medicine supports research aimed at understanding and disrupting the adeno-to-squamous transition, a mechanism by which non-small cell lung cancer can adapt and become resistant to targeted therapies like KRAS inhibitors. The $703,410 award, effective January 16, 2025 through December 31, 2029, will fund a comprehensive research program to identify specific...
This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.393 - Cancer Cause and Prevention Research) provides $701,538 to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to investigate the lineage evolution and epigenomic signatures of a distinct subtype of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) characterized by the lineage factor NKX2-1. The research aims to: 1) Determine how cell-of-origin and NKX2-1 impact the evolution and maintenance of this SCLC epigenomic subtype, 2) Elucidate the...
This $1,480,500 federal Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) aims to elucidate the cell intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms underlying small cell lung cancer (SCLC) metastasis.

Specifically, the...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $1,592,358 Project Grant (CFDA 93.396 Cancer Biology Research) to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) to conduct research on modulating cysteine metabolism to induce cell death in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The project aims to determine how cysteine deprivation triggers cell state-specific lethal mechanisms in SCLC cells, focusing on the role of the GCN2/ATF4 amino acid sensing pathway, polyunsaturated phospholipid...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $548,915 Project Grant under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research (CFDA 93.393) program to the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, WA. The grant will fund research to elucidate the biological roles of a stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) pathway as a tumor suppressor axis in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The researchers will leverage cellular models, genetically engineered mouse models, and human tumor datasets to define the impact...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $191,675 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to investigate the role of the Jumonji KDM4A enzyme in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The primary goals are to determine if Jumonji inhibition can block SCLC growth, including in chemotherapy-resistant disease, by reprogramming key neuroendocrine transcription factor gene programs. The research will utilize novel...

This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 Cancer Treatment Research) provides $3,787,956 to New York University School of Medicine to investigate and develop strategies for targeting replication stress in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The research aims to: 1) understand how the protein SLFN11 informs chemo-responsiveness in SCLC subtypes, 2) study how replication stress response pathways and modulators regulate chemo-sensitivity, and 3) integrate these insights to develop strategies for targeting replication stress to overcome acquired chemo-resistance in SCLC. The award supports this multi-project research program through August 2029, with a focus on advancing the molecular understanding of SCLC and paving the way for novel cancer therapies targeting relapsed SCLC patients.
