Opportunity Information: Apply for W81XWH 19 OCRP IIRA
The Department of Defense, through the Office of Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) Ovarian Cancer Research Program (OCRP), offered the Ovarian Cancer Investigator-Initiated Research Award (IIRA) to fund high-impact research projects that could meaningfully advance ovarian cancer science or improve care for patients and survivors. The core aim of this opportunity is to support investigator-driven ideas that are well reasoned, strongly justified by existing evidence, and positioned to make an important contribution to the field rather than incremental progress. Projects can span a wide range of research stages, including basic laboratory studies and translational research that moves findings toward practical applications, but the program explicitly excludes clinical trials under this mechanism.
A competitive application under this award is expected to show a clear scientific argument built on a critical review of the published literature, demonstrating that the proposed work addresses an important gap or challenge in ovarian cancer. The funding agency signals that it is not enough to propose an interesting hypothesis; applicants need to present a logical chain of reasoning, a sound scientific rationale, and a research plan grounded in what is already known. In addition, preliminary data are required, and those data must be directly relevant to ovarian cancer and persuasive in supporting the feasibility of the proposed approach. This emphasis indicates the program is geared toward projects that have already gained some traction in early results and are ready to be developed into a well-supported, impactful research effort.
The award was released as a discretionary funding opportunity by the Department of Defense, Department of the Army, administered through the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). The funding instruments listed for this opportunity include both cooperative agreements and grants, meaning awards could involve either more traditional grantee-led execution or a more collaborative structure where the government may have greater involvement in oversight and coordination, depending on the specific award arrangement.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, suggesting that a broad range of applicant organizations could apply, subject to any additional eligibility details that may have been provided in the full announcement. The opportunity fell under CFDA 12.420, within the category of science and technology and other research and development activities. The notice was created on February 22, 2019, with an original closing date of July 24, 2019. The opportunity anticipated making around five awards. An explicit award ceiling was not provided in the summary data (listed as 0), which typically means applicants needed to consult the full program announcement for budget limits, funding levels, and any constraints on allowable costs or project periods.
Overall, this grant mechanism is best characterized as support for rigorous, evidence-anchored, non-clinical-trial ovarian cancer research with a strong justification for impact and a clear demonstration of feasibility through ovarian-cancer-relevant preliminary data.Apply for W81XWH 19 OCRP IIRA
