NIH TRND program announces next round of drug development projects
Date:11/15/2011

ates to enter the program. A project would be terminated, for example, if the new treatment fails to show effectiveness in animal models, demonstrates toxicity in preclinical testing, or is found not to have the needed bioavailability, the amount of drug absorbed by the body.

"The goal of TRND is to work closely with project partners to achieve scientific milestones that we hope will produce badly needed treatments for underserved patient populations." said NHGRI's John McKew Ph.D., chief of NCTT's Therapeutic Development Branch and director of TRND.

Under TRND's collaborative operational model, project partners do not receive grants. Instead, the partners form joint project teams with TRND and receive in-kind support from TRND drug development scientists, laboratory and contract resources.

The potential treatments are developed and modified as needed to take them through the many steps of the preclinical development process. For projects which fail to progress beyond a milestone and are terminated, efforts will be made to understand the reasons for failure, to improve our understanding of the drug development process and thus improve its efficiency. TRND projects are taken only to the point in development at which they can attract outside funding; beyond this point the partner takes the project through the remainder of clinical development and regulatory approval process.
