OpportunityTitle: Bioequivalence of Topical Products: Comparing Epidermal Pharmacokinetics by Spectroscopic Imaging Techniques (U01)
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Institutions) are eligible to apply.  Non-domestic (non-U.S.) components of U.S. Organizations are eligible to apply.  Foreign components, as defined in the HHS Grants Policy Statement, are allowed.
Description: The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the research and development necessary to advance spectroscopic imaging technologies, methods, study designs, and analyses to non-invasively measure the rate and extent to which a topically applied compound becomes available in the epidermis, at or near a site of action within the skin. The expectation is that the funded work will produce an accurate, sensitive and reproducible approach that measures the amount of drug present in the epidermis at each of a series of depths below the skin surface, which can be utilized to monitor epidermal pharmacokinetics by repeated measurements over time.
