Treatments for Gastrointestinal Dysfunction in Children and Adolescents with ASD

Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are behaviorally defined by deficits in communication, social reciprocity, and repetitive stereotypic behaviors. Many children with ASD also experience co-morbid medical conditions that may be treatable. Conditions of particular concern include gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction, sleep disorders, metabolic disorders, seizure disorders, hormonal imbalances, and nutritional/feeding issues including food allergies and limited food preferences. The prevalence of GI dysfunction and related symptoms, in particular, appears to be elevated in ASD compared to that of the general pediatric population, but the evidence base remains inadequate. The goal of this RFA is to stimulate research to systematically evaluate treatments for GI dysfunction among children and adolescents with ASD.

Autism Speaks invites applications for pilot grants to conduct research on treatments for co-morbid GI dysfunction in children and adolescents with autism. These proposals will be reviewed by a committee with expertise in pharmacology, clinical trials research, gastroenterology and clinical science.
Research projects may include studies of:
• Pharmacological treatments including currently available treatments that are not well studied in autism, or promising new compounds
• Biomedical interventions such as nutritional supplements or probiotics
Proposals should seek to accomplish one or more of the following objectives:
• Evaluate the efficacy or therapeutic benefit of pharmacological or biomedical treatments for GI dysfunction in children diagnosed with autism and ASD.
• Evaluate the safety of pharmacological or biomedical treatments for GI dysfunction in children and adolescents diagnosed with autism and ASD.
• Compare different pharmacological interventions for treating GI dysfunction in children diagnosed with autism and ASD.

Grant Categories and Funds Available

This RFA provides funding for pilot studies of treatments for co-morbid GI dysfunction in children and adolescents with autism. Study designs should be clearly defined so as to enable replications and/or expansions of the initial studies. Proposals for open label studies are eligible for submission.
Applicants may apply as a single site or as a collaboration between two sites. Autism Speaks will make one multi-site award or two single-site awards as determined by the quality of the applications, the efficient use of the funds requested, and the available financial resources of
Autism Speaks. A lead investigator must be identified for a multi-site award who will apply on behalf of both participating sites.
Number of Awards: 1 to 2
Award Amounts: $75,000 per site, per year (up to three years)
Indirect Costs: An amount not to exceed 10% of direct costs may be given to the Sponsoring Institution for indirect (overhead) costs in addition to the grant amount.
Award Period: The grant will be awarded for a maximum period of three years in an amount not to exceed the maximum amount allowable per year based on the type of award funded. While applicants may request funding for a maximum of three years, proposals and applications will be judged, in part, by the efficient use of the funds requested. Applicants must demonstrate the need for the budgeted amounts in their proposal and application.

Investigator Qualifications
Investigators holding full-time tenured or tenure-track faculty appointments or equivalent full-time non-tenure track appointments at accredited academic, medical or research institutions are eligible to apply.

PURPOSES & GUIDELINES

The SAGES Research Awards are open to any principal investigator who is a SAGES member, including Candidate members. SAGES would like to especially encourage grant funding to young investigators/candidate members in the hopes that funding through SAGES will lead to additional extramural funding. Awards are conferred on a competitive basis by submission of a grant application, which is reviewed and evaluated by the SAGES Research Committee and approved by the Governing Board.

AVAILABLE GRANTS

Grants are limited to no more than $30,000 each, for a period of one year, and are made to the principal investigator. The purpose of these grants is to stimulate original research in gastrointestinal and endoscopic surgery. The study may be either "bench" research or clinical. In the spirit of supporting the goals of our membership, applicants are encouraged to review: Urbach DR, Horvath KD, Baxter NN, Jobe BA, Madan AK, Pryor AD, Khaitan L,Torquati A, Brower ST, Trus TL, Schwaitzberg S. A research agenda for gastrointestinal and endoscopic surgery. Surgical Endoscopy 2007 for a recent review of key research questions. Part of the grant review process includes evaluation of the importance of the research question. The review committee will incorporate these published rankings to determine the importance of submitted topics.

GRANT GUIDELINES

It is assumed that some of the resources required to conduct the project are available through the investigator's institution. The research grant serves to provide supplemental support for personnel (not including the salary of the principal investigator), equipment or services required to complete the research.

Awards are based on the scientific merit of the project as well as the investigator's capability and the likelihood that the project will be completed successfully. Considerations include the investigator's experience, background, availability of patient material and other resources. In the case of a junior investigator, the experience and background of the Co-PI mentor will be considered.

Investigators are required to submit semi-annual updates to SAGES Research Committee during the course of the research, starting one year after the grant has been awarded. At the conclusion of the project, the investigator is required to submit a report to the Research Committee. An abstract must be submitted for the SAGES Scientific Session which immediately follows the successful completion of the work. Additionally, upon acceptance of the abstract for presentation at the SAGES Scientific Session, a manuscript on the study and your findings must be sent to Surgical Endoscopy. A manuscript must also be sent to the SAGES office in order for the grant to be considered complete.

Since research facilities are factored into funding decisions by the Research Committee, the primary investigator must inform the SAGES office if he or she leaves his or her institution during the course of completing this research. The SAGES Research Committee chair will work with the investigator to determine if the research funds will stay with the initial institution or move with the investigator. SAGES reserves the right to make this final decision.

SAGES Research Committee understands that studies may need modification during the execution phase. If a study design is modified, the primary investigator MUST notify the committee. The committee will then review the suggested changes and decide whether they will continue to fund the new study.

INDIRECT COST POLICY

The monies SAGES awards for research grants are intended for use as seed money only and no indirect costs may be charged against these awards.

Special Requests for Proposals: Differences in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Incidence Between Developing and Developed Countries/ IBD and Diabetes Mellitus
Broad Medical Research Program
All Regions
12/31/2009
$0

The Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation created the Broad Medical Research Program (BMRP) for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Grants in 2001.

IBD refers to two chronic inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Although numerous scientific advances have been made in understanding and treating IBD, the precise cause, successful treatment and prevention of IBD remain unknown.

The Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation, through the BMRP, provides 40 percent of all private funding for IBD research in the United States. Our approach is different than many traditional scientific and medical funding organizations. We fund early stage investigation – with the goal that innovative ideas need financial support for early testing to ultimately lead to effective treatment, diagnosis and prevention of IBD.

The BMRP provides rapid funding to investigators working in non-profit organizations worldwide for up to two years for basic or clinical IBD research projects that:

* Are innovative
* Are in the early stages of exploration
* Will improve the diagnosis, therapy or prevention of IBD in the near future; and
* Will lead to longer-term funding by more traditional granting agencies

The BMRP provides funding to generate pilot research data, rather than serving as the final grant source for a research project. Grantees are encouraged to generate sufficient preliminary data in the first year in order to compete successfully for continuation funding from us and/or other sources.

A grantee may receive second-year funding from the BMRP if the researcher demonstrates maximal progress in the first year of the grant, validates the original research premise and demonstrates a clear need for additional preliminary data.

Because we believe that great ideas could come from non-traditional sources, we encourage basic and clinical investigators and scientists not currently working in IBD and interdisciplinary teams to apply.

There is a two-step process for requesting funding from the Broad Medical Research Program (BMRP) for Inflammatory Bowel Disease:

1. The first step is to submit a Letter of Interest. Instructions and format for Letters of Interest may be found under “How to Apply.” Decisions on Letters of Interest are based on external expert review of the proposal and usually are made within four to six weeks.

2. If the BMRP is interested in pursuing a project, an invitation is extended to submit a full grant application. At that time, the grant application instructions and forms are sent to the Principal Investigator. Decisions on grant applications are made based on external review by subject experts and usually take eight to 10 weeks.

There are no deadlines or specific dates for applications. Proposals are accepted and reviewed year-round. Revised proposals may only be submitted at the request of the BMRP.

Special Requests for Proposals

The BMRP is currently soliciting proposals in two areas of research:

Differences in IBD incidence between developing and developed countries

The BMRP is funding innovative research into the possible reasons for low and high incidence of IBD in different areas of the globe. Proposals should be exploratory in nature or designed as pilot. The research should shed light on factors that may influence low versus high global areas of prevalence of the disease. The research should ultimately be helpful in improved understanding of the etiology of IBD and the factors that enhance or prevent the genesis of the disease.

IBD and Diabetes Mellitus

The BMRP is interested in early stage exploratory innovative research proposals to investigate the similarities and differences between inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and diabetes mellitus (DM).

Proposals should be exploratory in nature designed as pilot projects researching possible commonality in the etiopathogenesis between IBD and DM. Human or animal model studies are welcomed.

How to Apply

Applicants should submit a brief Letter of Interest (up to three pages, not including attachments) as the initial request for funding. Investigators whose Letters of Interest fit the BMRP's criteria and areas of interest will be invited to submit a full grant application.

We recommend you review “Policies” and “Frequently Asked Questions” prior to preparing a Letter of Interest.

Letter of Interest Format

The following information is part of the three-page limit:

* Title of the project
* Specific hypothesis or question to be investigated
* Methodology
* Data analysis
* Anticipated outcomes

The following items (except for #1) are required but not part of the three-page limit:

1. Supportive information, such as references, preliminary data or recent publications, may be included.
2. State why your project fits the BMRP's criteria (see "BMRP Goals"), including its relevance and likely benefits to patients with IBD in the next several years.
3. Attach the investigator’s curriculum vitae(s) or biographical sketch(es).
4. Briefly describe the laboratory or clinical environment.
5. Indicate the estimated total budget (see “Budget” under “Policies”) and the period for which funding is requested. Keep in mind that we are interested in funding exploratory projects in order to test new ideas and directions in IBD research. Thus, funding requests should be in concert with the foundation’s purpose.
6. Provide the principal investigator’s e-mail and postal addresses.
