Disease outcomes will be ascertained by means of questionnaires, medical record review, and tissue sampling as appropriate. The contracts to be awarded will be cost-reimbursement, completion types. All responsible sources meeting these criteria are encouraged to submit an offer and will be considered by the National Cancer Institute. It is anticipated that the solicitation package will be available on /about February 17, 2005, with proposals due 45 calendar days after the issue date of the RFP. Award is anticipated by September 30, 2005. No collect calls will be accepted.
