Limited Interaction Targeted Epidemiology: Viral Suppression (LITE-VS) (UG3/UH3 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-AI-22-024 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications from investigators to enroll large, digitally-maintained cohorts of people with HIV-1 (PWH) in the United States which employ sampling strategies that ensure meaningful enrollment of participants who report prior gaps in HIV care engagement and/or lack of sustained viral suppression (VS). The goal is to follow the research cohort over time to prospectively investigate trajectories of HIV care engagement and viral suppression, as well as the temporal antecedents and multilevel factors that drive changes in care engagement, antiretroviral adherence, and viral suppression. Researchers may test strategies for improved methods of screening, enrollment, and retention of cohort participants. Projects should seek to inform future interventions to promote sustained engagement in HIV care and sustained HIV viral suppression, and additionally have the option of testing digitally-delivered interventions toward that end.

Cystic Fibrosis Research and Translation Centers (P30 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-22-011 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Research and Translation Core Centers. CF Research and Translation Core Centers are designed to support both basic and clinical research on Cystic Fibrosis. CF Research and Translation Core Centers support three primary research-related activities: Research Core services; a Pilot and Feasibility program; and an Administrative Core with an enrichment program. Core Centers provide shared resources to support research to develop and test new therapies for CF and to foster collaborations among institutions with a strong existing research base in CF. The NIDDK currently supports seven CF Research and Translation Centers located at institutions with documented programs of research excellence in basic and clinical CF Research. Information about the currently funded CF Research and Translation Centers may be found at:https://www.niddk.nih.gov/research-funding/research-programs/cystic-fibrosis-research-translation-centers or https://www.cysticfibrosiscenters.org/.

Imaging, Biomarkers and Digital Pathomics for the Early Detection of Premetastatic Cancer and Precancerous Lesions Associated with Lethal Phenotypes (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity PAR-22-131 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will support the development of state-of-the-art projects that integrate imaging, biomarkers, digital pathomics, glycomics, metabolomics, other omic information and/or meta data obtained from platforms including but not limited to lower resolution diagnostic acquisitions and systemic biomarker results to high resolution single-cell analytics / imaging applied to the characterization of heterogeneous cell populations within tumor for improving current approaches for: (1) the early detection of organ confined premetastatic aggressive cancer, and, (2) identifying precancerous lesions associated with a subsequent lethal phenotype. This FOA specifically attempts to address and improve diagnostic uncertainty in clinical decisions by improving detection sensitivity and specificity of integrated multiparametric platforms. For example, N-dimensional co-registered, cross-correlated imaging data integrated with multiplexed biomarker results and/or digital pathomics or glycomic, or metabolomic imaging using analytic strategies such as artificial intelligence or virtual reality visualization techniques. The projects supported by this FOA will collectively participate in the existing Consortium for Imaging and Biomarkers (CIB) Research Program. The goals of the CIB are to: (1) improve diagnostic performance by developing methodology for the early identification of potentially lethal cancer versus non-lethal disease, (2) to minimize/better manage overdiagnosis and (3) to reduce false positives and false negatives.

Somatic Cell Genome Editing Program Translational Coordination and Dissemination Center (TCDC) (U24 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-RM-22-017 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this FOA is to support the establishment of a Translational Coordination and Dissemination Center (TCDC) for the NIH Somatic Cell Genome Editing (SCGE) Consortium. In its second phase (FY2023-2027), the SCGE program will accelerate the development of genome-editing therapeutic agents by: facilitating IND-enabling studies; establishing pathways to regulatory approval; and disseminating successful strategies for initiating first in human clinical trials. In addition to this TCDC, the Consortium will include three components (development of technology/assays that support IND-submissions, optimize genome editing-based therapeutic leads for safety and efficacy and conduct platform clinical trials using genome editing technologies in 1 disease) which together will accelerate the optimization of promising clinical candidates toward IND filings and future first in human clinical trials. The TCDC is expected to lead consortium-wide activities that facilitate intra-consortium collaborations and that support broad dissemination strategies for regulatory submission. The TCDC will develop a publicly available online platform for data collection and dissemination of consortium-wide activities including stewardship and preservation of data generated by SCGE in Phase I.
