Development of Interventions to Prevent and Treat Substance Use Disorders and Overdose
Funds discovering and developing a medication or device to prevent or treat substance use disorders and overdose, in two phases.
A treatment for substance use disorder or overdose has to clear the same distance as any other drug or device — discovery, then evidence it works — and this notice funds both legs as one award.
What counts is broad on purpose: medications and medical devices, aimed at preventing or treating substance use disorders and overdose, including the disorders that commonly ride alongside them.
The mecha…
Discovery and development of medications and medical devices to prevent or treat substance use disorders and overdose, including co-occurring disorders, through a phased cooperative agreement moving preclinical and clinical candidates toward regulatory approval or clinical adoption.
