Pragmatic clinical trials to enhance the quality of life of older cancer patients (65 years and older) through nutrition
Funds pragmatic clinical trials testing tailored nutrition-based care to improve outcomes and quality of life for cancer patients aged 65 and older.
This is a Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Action, run as a single-stage call. Four grants are expected from a combined EUR 15,000,000 budget, each worth EUR 3,000,000 to EUR 5,000,000. Proposals must score at least 4 out of 5 on each of the Excellence, Impact and Implementation criteria, and reach a combined score of at least 12 across the three. Translational work funded here is limited to…
The funder wants randomised, real-world clinical trials of tailored nutritional care — potentially combined with physical activity or psychosocial support — for older cancer patients, who are often under-represented in trials. It wants trial endpoints defined together with patients and caregivers, and results that policymakers can use to fold nutritional care into routine cancer treatment.
