- The University of Maryland, Baltimore received a $422,799 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to conduct research on therapeutic targeting and biophysical characterization of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-mediated trogocytosis. The project aims to investigate the molecular basis of CAR-mediated trogocytosis, a mechanism of resistance to CAR T cell therapy, and explore alternative approaches to selectively inhibit this process and enhance...
- The National Cancer Institute awarded a 5-year, $667,379 Project Grant under the Cancer Treatment Research program (CFDA 93.395) to the University of California, Irvine (UCI) on February 1, 2025. The grant supports research to decode the role of polyadenylation, a critical mRNA processing step, in health and disease. Key activities include computational modeling to predict the impact of genetic variants on mRNA stability and processing, as well as high-throughput experiments to quantify how...
- The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center received a $2,457,127 Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to support the "INHANCE: Imaging Innovation for Head and Neck Cancer Evaluation & Treatment Delivery" research project. The goal of this 5-year project, starting August 18, 2025, is to leverage advanced imaging and computational analysis to better predict, detect, prevent, and manage normal tissue injury in head and...
- The University of Cincinnati's Sponsored Research Services Division was awarded a $383,491 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute under the Cancer Research Manpower (CFDA 93.398) federal grant program. The grant, awarded on July 1, 2025 with a completion date of June 30, 2030, will fund a Training Program in Basic and Translational Oncology. The program aims to increase the number of researchers with a strong background in cancer biology who can effectively translate scientific...
- The University of Kansas Medical Center Research Institute, Inc. (KUMCRI) has been awarded a $135,951 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) to enhance access to breast cancer prevention clinical trials. The project aims to modernize engagement and delivery of cancer prevention research, with a focus on improving recruitment and representation of all populations in breast cancer prevention trials. The award supports research initiatives to...
- The University of California, Irvine (UCI) was awarded a $2,186,372 Project Grant under the National Cancer Institute's (NCI) Cancer Biology Research program (CFDA 93.396). The 5-year grant, which began on April 1, 2025, will support a research program focused on understanding the fundamental biological mechanisms of cancer initiation and progression. The program includes three interdisciplinary research projects that will leverage mouse models to investigate the role of stochastic,...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a Project Grant of $375,025 to the University of Maryland, Baltimore under the Cancer Treatment Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.395). The grant supports Dr. Mark Mishra, who plays a critical role in the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center's clinical trials program and NCI-funded research. The key goals of the award are to: 1) Expand access to NCI-sponsored clinical trials at new network sites; 2) Foster partnerships to secure institutional support for NCI-funded research across Maryland; 3) Engage and train community oncologists to participate in NCI trials; 4) Strengthen engagement with local communities to align trial offerings with their health needs; and 5) Increase clinical trial enrollment across Maryland. The grant will provide protected time and resources for Dr. Mishra to further expand NCI-funded research and enhance the infrastructure for the cancer center's clinical research program. The award period is from Sep 1, 2025 to Jun 30, 2029.
