Analyzing Early Events in TB and TB/HIV Infection for Interventional Targets (R01 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed) expires 10/12/2023

Due Dates: October 11, 2023

Open Date: Earliest Submission Date: September 11, 2023

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support mechanistic studies of the early stage of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, with and without HIV, to identify interventional targets for vaccine and host-directed therapies. This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will support mechanistic studies of early Mtb infection (defined as the time between Mtb exposure and early-stage granuloma formation) in the airway and lung with the ultimate goal of understanding these events in the setting of HIV co-infection.

Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): Halting Tuberculosis (TB) Transmission

Open Date (Earliest Submission Date): February 05, 2023

Expiration Date: January 08, 2026

The purpose of this Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to highlight NIAID’s interest in accepting applications that aim to understand the critical drivers of Tuberculosis (TB) transmission at the individual and population levels in high-burden settings. Applicants are encouraged to develop effective methods to measure rates of TB transmission that rely on an increased understanding of the biomedical basis of transmission and related risk factors and to develop and assess potential interventions, including low-cost and low-tech options, to prevent TB transmission.

Sustained Release of Antivirals for Treatment or Prevention of HIV or Treatment of Latent TB/HBV (SRATP), due September 07, 2022

Open Date (Earliest Submission Date): September 07, 2022

Expiration Date: May 08, 2025

The purpose of this Notice is to encourage new applications to support further development of a diverse and comprehensive portfolio of SR/LA products for prevention and treatment of HIV. SR/LA antiretroviral products will have a minimum window of protection of three (3) months from either a single dosing (injection, oral administration) or continuous dosing regimen (implant, transdermal patch, etc.) to reflect current state of SR/LA drug market for HIV treatment or prevention.

This Notice also encourages applications to develop once-a-month SR/LA strategies for treatment of latent TB and hepatitis B

Advancing Vaccine Adjuvant Research for Tuberculosis (TB)

Solicitation for BAA-DAIT-75N93021R00008 entitled, "Advancing Vaccine Adjuvant Research for Tuberculosis (TB)"

Contract Opportunity Type: Solicitation
 

The goal of this program is to further the development of TB vaccines through sideby-side comparisons of adjuvants in combination with TB immunogens, and to establish immunological profiles of adjuvants that work through different mechanisms, facilitating the identification of the most promising adjuvant:Mtb immunogen candidates for clinical development and potential immune correlates of protection. The range of adjuvants to be evaluated may include novel classes of adjuvants being developed for other infections and immune-oncology therapeutics, as well as adjuvants already being developed for TB vaccines. It is anticipated that one cost reimbursement, completion type contract will be awarded for a five [5]-year period of performance beginning on or about 7/22/22.
NIAID anticipates that the average annual total cost (direct and indirect costs combined) is $4 million per contract. However, it is anticipated that the total cost for the award(s) may vary depending upon the scope of the project and the technical objectives of the award(s). The length of time for which funding is requested should be consistent with the nature and complexity of the proposed research. In no event shall the period of performance proposed by an offeror exceed five [5] years. Any responsible offeror may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the Agency. This BAA will be available electronically on/about April, 28, 2021, and may be accessed through here. This notice does not commit the Government to award a contract. No collect calls will be accepted. No facsimile transmissions will be accepted.
