Biomarkers: Bridging Pediatric and Adult Therapeutics (R21)
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages grant applications that propose adapting adult biomarkers to children. This would include the application and validation of biomarkers developed in adults to pediatric diagnosis, prognosis, and estimation of disease progression, toxicity and response to therapy. Projects supported by this FOA will be confined to those biomarkers that correlate with a clinical observation, have been extensively studied in adults, and for which there is solid evidence that they have pediatric applications. Discovery of new biomarkers for use in new drug development or in preclinical studies is not part of this FOA. Also excluded are biomarkers for diseases that are unique to children and have no adult correlates.
