NIA IMPACT Collaboratory RFAs: Demonstration Projects Program and Pilot Grants Program
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) IMbedded Pragmatic Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Dementias Clinical Trials (IMPACT) Collaboratory has announced two Request for Applications, the Demonstration Projects Program and the Pilot Grants Program.
These opportunities support research and training to increase the nation’s capacity to conduct pragmatic clinical trials (ePCTs) of non-pharmacological interventions within healthcare systems to improve care for people living with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementias(AD/ADRD) and their care partners.
- Pilot Grants Program - IMPACT will fund up to five one-year awards for pilot ePCTs that test non-pharmacological interventions embedded in health care system(s) for people living with AD/ADRD and their care partners. This grant cycle will prioritize applications for non-pharmacological interventions that aim to reduce inequities in health care, reduce potentially inappropriate medications through de-prescribing and improve care in the emergency department.
An informational webinar will be held on August 30 at 3pm ET. Letter of intent is due September 15. - Demonstration Projects Program - IMPACT will fund up to two Demonstration Projects designed as full-scale, Stage IV effectiveness ePCTs (based on the NIH Stage Model) that test, measure and evaluate the effect of a care delivery intervention program in health care systems for people living with AD/ADRD and their care partners. Preference will be given to applications for Demonstration Projects that address dementia care for populations historically marginalized or underrepresented in clinical trials and those that promote health equity. Letter of intent deadline is extended until September 30.
