Overview
The Cancer Therapeutics Innovation Pipeline (CTIP) Program was established to capitalize on Ontario’s expertise in cancer biology and drug discovery to create a pipeline of validated cancer targets and first-in-class or best-in-class, novel, selective lead molecules (small molecules or biologics) to attract partnerships and/or investment for further preclinical and clinical development. To generate a sustainable pipeline, CTIP will support projects that aim to provide increasing evidence of target validation and disease association using data from knowledgebases, functional assays, and drug screening in relevant in vitro and in vivo models of the cancer type of interest.
CTIP funds projects in four stages of preclinical drug discovery and is currently inviting applications for the following three funding streams:
- Early Validation projects
- Early Accelerator projects
- Late Accelerator projects
Eligibility Criteria
OICR invites applications from investigators at Ontario academic centres, hospital research institutes, or other government research institutions. CTIP funding is only tenable in Ontario. For-profit entities are not eligible to apply.
