Description:

The Ontario Institute for Cancer Research (OICR) has established the Cancer Therapeutics Innovation Pipeline (CTIP) strategic initiative to capitalize on Ontario?s expertise in cancer biology and drug discovery. CTIP aims to support the translation of Ontario discoveries into therapeutic assets with the potential for improving the lives of cancer patients. To stimulate collaborative research with the Ontario cancer research community in the area of cancer therapeutic discovery, OICR invites applications for early stage drug discovery.

To generate a sustainable pipeline, CTIP will support projects that aim to provide increasing evidence of target validation using functional assays and drug screening in relevant in vitro and in vivo models of the disease of interest. Thus, CTIP funding will be available to support projects in two stages of preclinical drug discovery: Accelerator Projects, whose goal is to deliver an in vitro validated target and related Hit1 molecules and Incubator Projects, whose goal is to deliver high-quality Lead molecules (small and/or large), with demonstrated in vivo efficacy, ideally accompanied by a pharmacodynamic biomarker that correlates with target modulation.

Application Details:

A letter from the administrative authority/high-level institutional official (i.e., President or Vice-President, Research), of the PI and Co-PI?s Host Institutions must be submitted with the full application. See application instructions for full details.
