2025 LCRF – Boehringer Ingelheim Team Science Award on Innovative Therapeutic Strategies to Understand and Treat Lung Cancers Harboring HER2 Mutations

This award supports multidisciplinary teams investigating the biology, resistance mechanisms, and novel treatments for HER2-mutant non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Projects must integrate clinical, basic, and/or translational work around a central theme and may include analyses of real-world datasets, tumor microenvironment studies, biomarker discovery, and exploration of HER2 amplification or overexpression in conjunction with mutations.

Eligibility Criteria

  • Collaborative “team science” proposals with closely integrated projects spanning clinical, basic, and/or translational research

  • Studies in patients with lung cancer harboring HER2 mutations (and related alterations such as amplification/overexpression)

  • Topics may include, but are not limited to:

    • Biology and mechanisms of HER2-driven tumor progression

    • Primary or secondary resistance to targeted, immune, or combination therapies

    • Real-world data analyses correlating patient demographics with mutation status

    • Immune landscape and tumor microenvironment characterization

    • Biomarker identification for therapy sensitivity

    • Optimization of treatment efficacy and tolerability

Funding Details

  • Maximum award: 1,500,000 USD total over 3 years

  • Single application per investigator per grant cycle

Application Process & Deadlines

  • Two-step submission: Letter of Intent (LOI) → Full proposal (invited applicants only)

  • LOI Deadline: July 29, 2025

  • Full Proposal Deadline: November 4, 2025
