- Description
- Type of Requirement: Re-competition Introduction The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health (NIH), of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) supports research related to the basic understanding of microbiology and immunology leading to the development of vaccines, therapeutics, and medical diagnostics for the prevention, treatment, and diagnosis of infectious and immune-mediated diseases. The NIAID, Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID), has a requirement for a Statistical and Data Coordinating Center (SDCC) for Clinical Research in Infectious Diseases, described below. Description Research supported and conducted by the NIAID, NIH, DHHS, strives to understand, treat and ultimately prevent the myriad infectious, immunologic, and allergic diseases that threaten millions of human lives. The NIAID DMID supports extramural research to control and prevent diseases caused by virtually all infectious agents. This includes basic and applied research to develop and evaluate therapeutics, vaccines, medical devices and diagnostics, which are funded through a variety of research grants and contracts. The evaluation of new and improved vaccine, device and therapeutic candidates in clinical trials and clinical studies is an essential element of the efforts of DMID. Through an extensive network of grant and contract research programs, DMID supports a broad range of clinical research, including single-site and multi-center clinical research and Phase 0 through 4 clinical trials evaluating bacterial, viral and parasitic vaccines, therapeutics, and other biologics, drugs, medical devices, and approaches as preventive and therapeutic measures against infectious diseases in people of all ages and risk categories. Support is also provided for a variety of other studies. Examples include: targeted surveillance for pathogens of interest in study populations; evaluations of novel investigational product delivery systems; and reevaluation of current vaccine formulations, schedules and modes of delivery. Clinical trials and clinical studies are also supported to evaluate the safety and efficacy of vaccines, medical devices and therapeutics for a wide variety of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases ( http://www.niaid.nih.gov/topics/emerging/Pages/list.aspx ), which includes NIAID Category A-C Priority Pathogens to meet critical public health needs. NIAID is conducting an acquisition for the establishment and management of a Statistical and Data Coordinating Center to support DMID's extramural clinical research programs through the provision of: statistical design and analysis expertise; computerized systems for the collection, storage, management, reporting and quality control of study data; assistance in the preparation of study-related materials; a system for the tracking of clinical specimens; data collection and management user training; clinical site capability assessment for data collection and management; project/site management; and, a data repository for completed DMID-sponsored clinical studies. This requirement will be conducted as a Total Small Business Set-Aside.
