Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA CA 20 045
This funding opportunity is a limited competition NIH grant announcement (R01 mechanism; clinical trials not allowed) focused on renewing support for the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Hazards to Humans. The Monographs program is a long-running, highly visible international effort that critically reviews and synthesizes the published scientific literature to determine whether specific agents, exposures, or circumstances pose carcinogenic hazards to humans. The work is supported in part by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and is positioned as a global public health resource: the resulting monograph volumes function as authoritative reference documents that help shape health policy decisions, guide cancer prevention strategies, and inform research priorities worldwide with the aim of reducing the global cancer burden.
The core activity supported by this FOA is the continuation (renewal) of the Monographs program itself, which centers on rigorous evaluation of existing evidence rather than generating new clinical trial data. In practice, this type of effort typically involves convening expert working groups, conducting systematic and transparent evidence reviews across human epidemiology, animal studies, and mechanistic data, and producing peer-referenced monograph volumes that summarize the state of the science and the basis for hazard classifications. The emphasis is on critical assessment of published findings and clear documentation of how conclusions are reached, so the final monographs can be relied upon by governments, regulators, researchers, clinicians, and other stakeholders concerned with cancer-causing exposures.
Eligibility is broad across many organization types, but the competition is described as limited, meaning it is restricted in who may realistically apply under NIH rules for this particular renewal. Eligible applicants listed include state, county, city/township, and special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; Native American tribal organizations other than federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); and small businesses. The announcement also explicitly highlights additional eligible applicant categories such as Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, AANAPISI institutions, Hispanic-serving institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, eligible federal agencies, regional organizations, tribal governments other than federally recognized, and U.S. territories or possessions.
International participation is allowed in a specific way. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign organizations and foreign institutions) are eligible to apply, and foreign components as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement are allowed. At the same time, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply, which is an important distinction for U.S.-based institutions that might otherwise propose an overseas branch or operational unit as the applicant component.
The sponsoring agency is the National Institutes of Health, with the program aligned to NCI support and the cancer-focused NIH assistance listings (CFDA numbers 93.393, 93.396, 93.399). The Funding Opportunity Number is RFA-CA-20-045, categorized as a discretionary grant opportunity in the education and health activity area.
