Secondary Data Analysis
Who can apply: Applicants should be SWOG researchers/members; proposals must follow RFA instructions and include required materials.
Deadline: Ongoing (applications accepted at any time).
The Hope Foundation for Cancer Research funds cancer-clinical-research capacity within the SWOG/NCTN network, with a strong emphasis on investigator development, trial support, and translational science. Its giving is especially geared toward helping researchers and trial sites do better work—through travel support, training, statistical mentorship, pilot funding, and supplemental support for active studies—rather than broad, unsolicited community grants. Nonprofits or researchers aligned with SWOG’s clinical trial ecosystem, biostatistics, biomarker work, or early-stage cancer research are the best fit.
Primarily invite-only and network-based grants within SWOG/NCTN, combining small capacity-building awards, travel and training support, and larger career development or pilot research grants. Awards range from covered travel costs and no-cost workshops to grants up to about $62,500 for seed projects and $50,000 per year for career awards, with a mix of annual deadlines and ongoing applications.

Applicants should be affiliated with SWOG, NCTN, or a participating research site and should watch annual deadlines closely, since several programs are cycle-based (for example, March 15, January 15, July 1, and July 15). Strong applications will clearly show how the proposal advances SWOG trials, translational cancer research, or investigator development; many opportunities are structured for current network members rather than open public application.
