What this call funds

Summary: The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Rare Cancers Research Program (RCRP) Concept Award (CA) supports highly innovative, untested, potentially groundbreaking novel concepts in rare cancers. Applications must describe how the new idea will be innovative and present as a novel course of investigation in the field of rare cancers.

Distinctive Features:

  • Preliminary data are not required.
  • Due to the blinded nature of the review process, identifying or making references to the Principal Investigator (PI), collaborator(s), or their organization(s) in the proposal Project Narrative, Supporting Documentations, Impact Statement, Justification Statement, and Statement of Work (SOW) is prohibited and will result in administrative rejection of the application.
