About this opportunity

<p><strong>Summary: </strong>The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Autism Research Program (ARP) Clinical Trial Award supports the rapid implementation of clinical trials with the potential to have a significant impact on the treatment or management of autism. Clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, clinical guidance and/or emerging approaches and technologies. Proposed projects may range from small proof-of-concept trials (e.g., pilot, first-in-human, phase 0) to demonstrate the feasibility or inform the design of more advanced trials through large-scale trials to determine efficacy in relevant patient populations.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Distinctive Features: </strong></p><p><strong><em>Applications are strongly encouraged to address one of the FY26 ARP Clinical Trial Award Areas of Interest.</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Partnering Principal Investigator (PI) Option for Early-Career Investigator:</strong> The FY26 Clinical Trial Award mechanism is offering a higher level of funding for applications that propose to partner an experienced PI (i.e., Initiating PI) with an Early-Career Investigator (i.e., Partnering PI) wishing to pursue a career in autism clinical trial research.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>FY26 Clinical Trial Award submissions are required to include community collaborations to optimize research impact. </strong>Research teams are therefore required to establish and utilize effective and equitable collaborations and partnerships with community members to maximize the translational and impact potential of the proposed research.
