What this is

The FDA is seeking research to investigate why certain modified-release oral drug products rapidly release their entire dose when exposed to alcohol (dose dumping), which can cause serious safety problems. This U01 grant mechanism funds collaborative research but explicitly excludes clinical trials. Applicants should have expertise in pharmaceutical formulation science, pharmacokinetics, and/or drug product development to identify the chemical, physical, and formulation factors driving this phenomenon.

Who can apply

Eligibility criteria are unspecified in the provided text, but this is an FDA U01 grant (collaborative research) typically open to academic institutions, research organizations, small businesses, and non-profits. Clinical trial involvement is explicitly not allowed. Contact the FDA or review the full funding announcement (CFDA 93.103) for specific eligibility requirements.

Topics: alcohol dose dumping · modified release oral drugs · formulation science · pharmacokinetics · drug safety · pharmaceutical development
