Overview

The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Rare Cancers Research Program (RCRP) Idea Development Award (IDA) promotes ideas that are ready for further development and have the potential to yield high-impact findings and new avenues of investigation.

Distinctive Features:

  • The RCRP encourages applicants to include an exploratory aim or sub-aim to support any necessary discovery-driven research.
  • Preliminary data with disease-specific rationale are required. However, these data do not necessarily need to originate from studies of the proposed rare cancer type(s)/subtype(s) under study.
  • Research should have high potential impact on rare cancers and the patient community.
