The contract focuses on the preclinical development of cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors (CENis), a class of small molecule antiviral therapeutics aimed at broad-spectrum activity. Activities under this project include lead candidate selection, in vitro and in vivo efficacy testing, and the characterization and optimization of these compounds. An essential component involves research support for preclinical studies of CENis against viruses necessitating biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) containment, with specific support directed to the Naval Medical Research Command located in Fort Detrick, Maryland. The overall duration of the contract is set for 36 months. Issued by the Department of Defense through the Navsup Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk, the contract is identified under solicitation number N0018926QB059 and was posted in May 2026, with a response deadline later that same month. The work is to be performed primarily in Galveston, Texas. The contract does not have any set-aside requirements and falls under the NAICS code 541715, which relates to research and development services. Key contacts for the contract are Brian Kinkade and Jacob Gephart, reachable via their provided email addresses and phone numbers.
