Elucidating the heterogeneity of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) Clinical Centers (U01 Clinical Trial Required)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-21-020 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this FOA is to establish a clinical consortium to determine the factors that contribute to the heterogeneity in the restoration of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) and improved counter-regulatory responses in adult individuals with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Individuals with IAH are often excluded from clinical trials and this omission contributes greatly to a lack of knowledge regarding the clinical characteristics which determine or predict an individuals ability to restore hypoglycemic awareness. New technologies such as continuous glucose monitors (CGM) and closed loop systems (i.e. artificial pancreas) have been shown to reduce hypoglycemic events. However, despite a reduction in hypoglycemic events, restoration of hypoglycemia awareness does not occur in all individuals and the effects on improving the counter-regulatory responses are not known. The goals of the clinical consortium will be to 1) determine if state-of-the-art diabetes technology to optimize HbA1c while minimizing hypoglycemia can restore awareness of hypoglycemia and improve counter-regulatory responses in individuals with T1D; 2) identify the magnitude and duration of time in range (TIR), time spent in hypoglycemia or other CGM metrics that are associated with restoration of awareness of hypoglycemia; and 3) validate current self-report assessments of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia with physiological measurements. It is expected that state of the art techniques such as hypoglycemic, hyperinsulinemic clamps (with or without stable isotopes) for the measurement of counter-regulatory responses and endogenous glucose production will be utilized to determine restoration of awareness and validate self-report assessments.

Elucidating the heterogeneity of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) - Biostatistics Research Center (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-21-036 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This FOA invites applications for a Biostatistics Research Center (BRC) to participate in a clinical consortium to determine the factors that contribute to the heterogeneity in the restoration of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) and improved counter-regulatory responses in adult individuals with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH). A separate FOA (RFA-DK-21-020) invites Clinical Centers to 1) determine if the most up-to-date diabetes technology to optimize HbA1c while minimizing hypoglycemia can restore awareness of hypoglycemia and improve counter-regulatory responses in individuals with T1D and IAH; 2) identify the magnitude and duration of time in range (TIR), time spent in hypoglycemia or other CGM metrics that are associated with restoration of awareness of hypoglycemia; and 3) validate current self-report assessments of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia with physiological measurements derived from state of the art metabolic assessments.

Advancing communication strategies to support future HIV vaccine use (R21 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-22-171 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Efforts are underway to develop a safe and effective vaccine to protect people from acquiring HIV ultimately reducing the number of new infections and ending the epidemic. However, the subject of vaccines remains contentious, and COVID-19 has heightened the conversation. There are multiple messages circulating both for and against vaccines and a growing number of skeptics appear to be making decisions about vaccines based on misinformation. This initiative will advance research on communication factors and strategies that will be crucial for successful public understanding, acceptance, and uptake of future vaccines that protect against HIV.

HEAL Initiative: HEAL Data2Action Modeling and Economic Resource Center (U24 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DA-22-049 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This FOA seeks applications for one Modeling and Economic Resource Center to support the HEAL D2A Innovation Projects. This center will provide expertise in a variety of simulation modeling and economic analyses and methods; utilize agent-based, predictive, geospatial or other simulation models to inform Innovation Project grantees about the potential public health impact of implementing different interventions, to support local implementation decisions; support the Innovation Projects in assessing costs and cost benefit associated with selected service delivery changes; develop costing tools that can be utilized by Innovation Grants to inform local decisions about the selection of interventions; and conduct original research applying state-of-the-art economic and simulation modeling expertise to understand and address the overdose crisis. This FOA runs in parallel with a set of companion FOAs supporting the other components of the HEAL D2A Program.

HEAL Initiative: HEAL Data2Action Innovation Projects (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DA-22-051 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. As part of the NIH HEAL Initiative, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is releasing a set of interrelated RFAs to create the HEAL Data2Action (D2A) Program, a coordinated effort to promote the synthesis and real-world application of existing data to guide and monitor improvements in service delivery to prevent or treat opioid use disorder (OUD) and pain. Collectively, these projects will address gaps in the delivery of evidence-based practices in each of the four pillars of the HHS Overdose Prevention Strategy: primary prevention, harm reduction, treatment of opioid use disorder, and recovery support. Separate FOAs are being issued to support multiple HEAL D2A Innovation Projects (RFA-DA-22-051); one HEAL D2A Data Infrastructure Support Center (RFA-DA-22-052); one HEAL D2A Research Adoption Support Center (RFA-DA-22-050); and one HEAL D2A Economics and Modeling Resource Center (RFA-DA-22-049). It is imperative that prospective applicants read all of these related RFAs to better understand the intended purpose and structure of the HEAL D2A Program. This FOA solicits applications for HEAL D2A Innovation Projects, which are phased awards intended to support local efforts, either within a single system or in cross-sector partnerships, to improve utilization of data to drive prediction and real-time proactive responses to the overdose crisis.
