  • International Clinical Trial Collaborations (ICTC) Grant Opportunity

    The NHMRC International Clinical Trial Collaborations (ICTC) grant opportunity is now open for the second round of Peer Reviews.

     

    The grants will provide support for Australian research teams to conduct clinical trial research in collaboration with international counterparts. Applications for this grant opportunity must propose a single clinical trial which will achieve the following outcomes:

    • Promote Australian involvement in international collaborative investigator-initiated clinical trials research through the establishment and co-ordination of clinical trial site(s) in Australia; and
    • Provide high-quality evidence of the effectiveness of novel health treatments, drugs or devices in ‘usual care’ settings, which will support a decision on whether to deliver the intervention in an Australian setting

     

    Novel health treatments include new and innovative applications of existing interventions.

     

    Minimum data due: Wednesday 31 July, 2019

    Applications close: Thursday 15 August, 2019
