DoW Pancreatic Cancer Research Program, Focused Pilot Award

Summary: The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Pancreatic Cancer Research Program (PCARP) Focused Pilot Award supports the exploration and development of impactful and innovative concepts under a patient-centered focus area of pancreatic cancer research that could ultimately lead to major advancements that will have a profound effect on patients’ overall quality of life. The research this award supports should strive to produce robust preliminary data that can serve as a foundation for future clinical or real-world research application. Distinctive Features: This award mechanism allows, but does not require, preliminary data. Applications can support clinical research studies; however, this mechanism does not allow clinical trials. Preclinical animal studies do not meet the intent of this mechanism.
