4. ACCELERATING CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH www.indianactsi.org In 2006, National Institutes of Health (NIH) developed the Clinical and Translational Science Award program (CTSA) led by the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) CTSA works together as a national consortium of 55 institutions sharing a common vision to improve human health by transforming the research and training environment to enhance the efficiency and quality of clinical and translational research – helping scientists bridge laboratory discoveries to patient treatments When fully implemented by 2011, 60 institutions will be linked together to transform the local, regional, and national environment to increase the efficiency and speed of clinical and translational research across the country. National Institutes of Health Clinical And Translational Science Awards

5. ACCELERATING CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH www.indianactsi.org BioCrossroads, IU School of Medicine, the Regenstrief Institute, Indiana University, Notre Dame and Purdue University pursued the CTSA from the NIH In 2008, NIH awarded a $25 Million CTSA to the Indiana University, Purdue University and the University of Notre Dame to fund collaborative university-industry translational research at the Indiana Clinical and Translational Science Institute - CTSI More than 120 collaborations throughout the US applied that year and only the top 9 earned the prestigious grant award –Award put Indiana on the map for nationally recognized, acclaimed institutions enhancing recruiting, retention, publication and competitiveness of our universities NIH federal dollars is supplemented by nearly $60 million from IU and Purdue, the State of Indiana, Eli Lilly and Co. and the Richard M. Fairbanks Foundation, Inc. to extend the reach of the CTSI Indiana Clinical and Translational Science Institute

12. ACCELERATING CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH www.indianactsi.org Challenge: People find $, yet still struggle to get to the next critical step in discovery –Pre angel investment –Early stage funding –Feasibility funds CTSI Solution: Bridging the gap in taking discovery to IP RISC Grants advance IP development –RISC (Research for Invention and Scientific Commercialization) are IP boost grants up to $25K each –First grant resulted in treatment patent that one pharma group is interested in pursuing Connect to Venture Capital of Licensing –When ready for commercialization, provide link thru IUETC and Clarian Ventures Goal 1. Translational Research Acceleration Programs

13. ACCELERATING CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH www.indianactsi.org Challenge: Need to improve the infrastructure and workforce CTSI Solution: Clinical Faculty Career Development Awards (17 awarded) Basic Research Faculty career development awards (5 new positions) Graduate Training (30 awarded) NIH K30 grant provides –MS in Clinical research for MD, Nurses, Clinicians –Translational science for engineering, PhDs –MS in Translational Sciences Program for Research coordinator certification Undergraduate Research Fellowships (12 slots/year) K-12; High school student program (50 students) –Project SEED –Genetics Based Science Teachers Goal 2. Training Translational Researchers

14. ACCELERATING CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH www.indianactsi.org Challenge: Improve clinical research availability through health literacy throughout the community and biobank CTSI Solution: Community Health Enhancement Program (CHEP) Over 170 active Community Partners engaged –YMCA diabetes management program –Advancing Community Engagement in Science (ACES) led by CTSI -10 other national CTSAs to develop best practices to do community based research Community Advisory Council established Focus areas meet monthly, entire group annually A New mechanism developed to supplement subject recruitment similar To PDTs CTSI SUCCESS: –Indiana CTSI built a set of ‘tools’ for a national model for community engagement Goal 3. Robust Community Engagement

15. ACCELERATING CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH www.indianactsi.org Challenge: Need to engage more patients in clinical studies Regulatory barriers need to be shortened through contracts, IRBs Streamline the process so research moves through the continuum quickly Need more bricks and mortar infrastructure to do it correctly Need a place to conduct studies faster, better Goal 4. Streamlining and Enhancing Clinical Research Resources
