Natural Product Multi-Site Clinical Trial Data Coordinating Center (Collaborative U24 Clinical Trial Required)

US · MD National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant open #PAR-24-313
Response due Jul 14, 2026 · 00:00 UTC

Summary

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking applications for a Data Coordinating Center (DCC) to support multi-site clinical trials focused on natural products. This is a collaborative U24 grant mechanism requiring clinical trial participation. The DCC would be responsible for coordinating data management, quality control, and statistical support across multiple clinical trial sites. The opportunity is posted on Grants.gov under program announcement PAR-24-313 and remains open through mid-2026.

What they want

Applicants must establish and operate a Data Coordinating Center (DCC) to support natural product multi-site clinical trials. Responsibilities are expected to include centralized data collection, data management and quality assurance, biostatistical design and analysis support, coordination across multiple clinical trial sites, and regulatory/compliance oversight. The mechanism is a Collaborative U24, which requires an active clinical trial component as part of the application.
Deliverables
  • Data Coordinating Center operations plan
  • Centralized data management system
  • Statistical analysis and reporting support for clinical trial sites
  • Data quality assurance and control protocols
  • Regulatory and compliance documentation for multi-site trial coordination
Technical requirements
  • Must support multi-site clinical trial infrastructure
  • Clinical trial required as part of application (U24 mechanism)
  • Collaborative application structure required
  • Data coordination across geographically distributed sites

Risks & flags

  • Long open window (nearly 2 years) may indicate a rolling/resubmission opportunity rather than a single competitive award cycle — unusual for a standard grant announcement
  • U24 collaborative mechanism is highly specialized and may narrow the pool of eligible applicants to established academic medical centers or research consortia with existing multi-site trial infrastructure
