Summary

Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), entitled "Toward Translation of Nanotechnology Cancer Interventions" (TTNCI), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) encourages applications for advanced pre-clinical research, supporting translation of nanotechnology-based cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. TTNCI awards are designed to mature experimental nanomedicines relying on nanoparticles and nano-devices which demonstrate strong potential to improve cancer treatment effectiveness due to the combination of nanoparticle/nano-device structural design and/or therapeutic/diagnostic cargo which is delivered. TTNCI awards are expected to enable further development of proposed nanotechnology-based interventions to the stage in which they could continue on a developmental path towards the NCI Experimental Therapeutics (NExT) and other NCI translational programs.
