Description

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are seeking proposals for small business innovation research (SBIR) contract proposals. The specific topic of the solicitation is "Small Manufacturing Systems to Produce Research Grade Pharmaceutical Intermediates". The goal of this initiative is to develop compact tools and devices capable of manufacturing key chemical intermediates at the benchtop, allowing for just-in-time delivery of materials to optimize research operations. The devices should be able to speed up the preclinical drug development stage by providing on-demand access to intermediates that can be rapidly diversified or scaled up for animal studies. The project aims to leverage automation in synthetic chemistry to shift the way common intermediates in medicinal chemistry are acquired in the laboratory. The budget for Phase I is $325,000 for 9 months, and for Phase II is $2,000,000 for 2 years. The solicitation is open until November 14, 2023.

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.

Department of Health and Human Services
The Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Institutes of Health, is seeking proposals for the NINDS Exploratory Clinical Trials for Small Business (R43/R44 Clinical Trial Required) topic. This solicitation aims to support small business concerns (SBCs) in conducting exploratory clinical trials that contribute to the justification for future trials to establish definitive efficacy. The trials can include Phase 1 and 2 studies of drugs and biologics, feasibility and preliminary efficacy studies of devices, as well as early studies of surgical, behavioral, or rehabilitation therapies. The trials can be single-site or multi-site with up to three clinical sites. The applications must generate data that inform further clinical development of the proposed intervention or diagnostic, and FDA approval is required for FDA-regulated clinical trials. The goal is to advance products/technologies that require federal regulatory approval or bring complex research tools to market. The solicitation is open until September 6, 2026, and more information can be found at the provided links.

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.
