Description

The Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), are seeking proposals for Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts related to the topic of "Point-of-Care HIV Viral Load and Drug Adherence Assays".

The goal of this solicitation is to develop point-of-care assays that can measure viral load and adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) for individuals with HIV. These assays are crucial for maintaining sustained viral suppression and reducing HIV incidence in the United States.

The anticipated awards for this topic are 1-3, and the budget for Phase I is $300,000 for up to 1 year, while Phase II is $2,000,000 for up to 2 years.

The deadline for proposal submission is November 14, 2023. For more information and to access the solicitation, visit the following link: SBIR Topic Link.

Department of Health and Human Services
The Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Institutes of Health, is seeking proposals for the NIAID SBIR Phase II Clinical Trial Implementation Cooperative Agreement (U44 Clinical Trial Required). This solicitation encourages Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant applications from small business concerns (SBCs) that propose to implement investigator-initiated clinical trials, including mechanistic studies associated with clinical trials. The program supports milestone-driven, hypothesis-driven clinical trials related to the research mission of the NIAID that address high-priority research areas. The solicitation encourages high-risk clinical studies, which involve non-routine interventions, administration of an unlicensed product, or administration of a licensed product for an unapproved indication. Mechanistic studies are also encouraged. The funding supports the conduct, completion, and analysis of a single clinical trial, including activities such as training of study personnel, enrollment and recruitment of study subjects, data collection and management, laboratory work, safety monitoring, and regulatory activities. The project duration is not specified, but the application due dates are provided. More information can be found on the grants.gov website.

Department of Health and Human Services
The Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Institutes of Health, is seeking proposals for the development of novel tools and devices for animal research facilities and to support the care of animal models. The Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) is encouraging applications from small business concerns (SBCs) for Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) projects in this area. The goal of this solicitation is to improve animal welfare, ease the management of individual animals and animal colonies, and enhance the monitoring and control of environmental conditions that affect outcomes and reproducibility in animal model research. The variation of extrinsic factors between different animal facilities has been cited as a source of irreproducibility in animal research, and this solicitation aims to address this issue. The solicitation specifically calls for the development and implementation of novel tools and devices to monitor environmental conditions, identify pathogens and contaminants, and enable noninvasive or minimally invasive monitoring of animal behavior and bodily functions. The devices should be discreet, robust, easy to apply, and mobile. Additionally, the solicitation seeks new software that can combine data from different monitoring devices and be compatible with different data formats. The solicitation emphasizes the importance of innovation and encourages the adaptation of technologies from other fields to improve animal research. It applies to a broad range of animal models, including invertebrate and vertebrate animals, and excludes disease-specific devices, reagents, and experimental protocols. Examples of specific tools and devices that can be developed include portable software for managing and evaluating animal colonies, noninvasive tracking and monitoring technology, automated feeding systems, devices for drug delivery and measurement, improved systems for data collection and analysis, better phenotyping devices, improved holding and transfer devices, and enhanced air and water filters for animal facilities. The solicitation is open for applications until September 6, 2024, and applicants are advised to discuss their projects with the Scientific/Research contacts before submitting an application.
