Opportunity Information: Apply for W81XWH 21 OCRP OMCA
The CDMRP Ovarian Cancer Omics Consortium Award (OMCA) is a Fiscal Year 2021 funding opportunity under the Department of Defense Ovarian Cancer Research Program (OCRP). It is administered through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP), with the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) serving as the awarding and acquisition office on behalf of the Defense Health Agency (DHA) J9 Research and Development Directorate. The legal authority referenced for issuing the opportunity is Title 10 of the United States Code, Section 2358 (10 USC 2358), and the funding is supported through the Defense Health Program Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) appropriation overseen by DHA as directed by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs.
At a high level, this opportunity is meant to support ovarian cancer research with an emphasis on omics and consortium-based efforts, aligning with the OCRP mission to fund research of exceptional scientific merit. The OMCA mechanism is offered as either a cooperative agreement or a grant, which signals that awards may involve varying levels of involvement by the government depending on the specific instrument used. The program sits within the broad federal funding category of science and technology and other research and development, and it is associated with CFDA number 12.420.
The OCRP itself has a long-running funding history, having been established in FY97. The source text highlights the scale of prior investment: total appropriations from FY97 through FY20 amounted to approximately $371.45 million, reflecting sustained congressional interest in advancing ovarian cancer research. For FY21 specifically, the OCRP appropriation is stated as $35.0 million, indicating the overall pool supporting OCRP-funded activities in that fiscal year, including opportunities like this one.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is broadly open to any type of applicant organization, with the caveat that applicants should review any additional eligibility clarifications that may appear in the full announcement text. The funding opportunity was created on March 25, 2021, and the original application closing date was July 8, 2021. The announcement anticipates making about four awards. The listed award ceiling is shown as 0 in the provided data, which typically means the ceiling was not captured in the summary fields or was specified elsewhere in the full solicitation rather than as a single fixed cap in the metadata.
In practical terms, the opportunity can be summarized as a competitively awarded DoD OCRP funding mechanism intended to build or support coordinated, high-merit ovarian cancer omics research through a consortium-style award structure, administered by CDMRP/USAMRAA under DHA oversight, with a limited number of expected awards and broad applicant eligibility.Apply for W81XWH 21 OCRP OMCA
