Repurposing Research for Chicago - Track 3 – Pediatrics Grant

The 'Repurposing Research for Chicago - Track 3 – Pediatrics' grant focuses on clinical trials aimed at addressing unmet medical needs of pediatric patients. It encourages adding pediatric arms to existing adult trials and prefers proof of concept or pivotal Phase I/IIA studies. Budgets up to $100,000 are accepted from Chicago-area institutions. The initiative aims to enhance treatment accessibility and speed through collaboration within the Chicagoland region, utilizing innovative methods like telehealth.

While Cures Within Reach is disease-agnostic and geography-agnostic, some of our funding partners have strategic interests in specific geographic regions. Therefore, in addition to our disease-specific repurposing communities, we work to increase the repurposing research focused on improving the quality and length of life within the Chicagoland region through the speed and cost-effectiveness of medical repurposing.
Our events and research within the Chicagoland Repurposing Community all focus on connecting our many stakeholder groups together in our shared goal: driving more treatments to more patients more quickly through repurposing.
Clinical repurposing trials to address unmet medical needs of pediatric patients, including adding a pediatric arm to an adult clinical repurposing trial.
While the funded institutions must be in Chicagoland, patients and collaborators can be both within and outside the Chicago area. Clinical trials utilizing telehealth or other remote strategies are encouraged to apply.
Funding
Accepting budgets of up to $100,000 for clinical repurposing trials from Chicago area research institutions in one or more of the tracks, which includes the required institutional match.
