Request for Interest (RFI)
BIO Ventures for Global Health (BVGH) invites investigators to submit information regarding their interests in conducting cancer clinical trials (feasibility studies) in sub-Saharan Africa (herein referred to as “Africa”). The studies described must (1) be conducted in Africa by an Africa-based investigator or with an Africa-based partner, (2) focus on one or more of the most common cancers in African populations, and (3) be aimed at improving African cancer patients’ health outcomes.

Responses to this RFI may be shared, wholly or in part, with potential funders of BVGH's clinical trial study pool (AC3T Study Pool). Please do not include any confidential or proprietary information in your submission.

Please complete and submit one form for each cancer feasibility study you are interested in performing in Africa.

For more information about BVGH and the AC3T Study Pool, please email Katy Graef (kgraef@bvgh.org).

Section 2: Cancer Clinical Trial Information
Clinical trials are defined as clinical research that evaluates and tests therapies, medications, and/or devices. Cancer feasibility studies are defined as investigator-initiated clinical trials using current standards of care (FDA approved drugs), a primary goal of which is to demonstrate that a site can conduct a cancer clinical trial. Social, behavioral, and early-stage genomic studies are not consistent with the intent of this RFI.
