AI Contract Overview
The National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), in collaboration with several NIH institutes including NINDS, NIA, NIDCR, NCCIH, NCI, NIAMS, NHLBI, NICHD, and the HEAL Initiative, is seeking to renew Resource Centers (RCs) for the HEAL Pain Management Effectiveness Research Network. These centers will support the planning, implementation, and completion of large-scale multisite clinical trials designed to expand evidence-based strategies for managing pain, ranging from acute to chronic conditions. The RCs will provide essential operational expertise, clinical coordination, safety monitoring, data management, biostatistical support, and recruitment assistance, leveraging a network of clinical recruitment sites within the NCATS Clinical and Translational Science Awards hubs. This opportunity is a limited competition under a forthcoming Notice of Funding Opportunity, targeting eligible organizations to submit applications for peer review. Funding will be awarded based on merit to support Resource Centers that can uphold the shared goal of improving pain management through rigorous clinical research. The contract specifies that clinical trials themselves are not allowed under this funding.

Full Description
The National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), with NINDS, NIA, NIDCR, NCCIH, NCI, NIAMS, NHLBI, NICHD and the NIH Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative seeks to advance its mission by renewing the HEAL Pain Management Effectiveness Research Network (ERN) Resource Centers (RCs) needed for the successful planning, implementation, and completion of rigorous large-scale multisite clinical trials (CTs). CTs will expand the suite of evidence-based effective strategies and therapeutics to alleviate pain across the continuum of acute to chronic pain associated with many types of diseases and conditions, or presenting as a disease itself. The RCs will continue the provision of CT operational expertise, clinical coordination and safety monitoring, data coordination and biostatistical resources, and recruitment and retention support as well as access to additional clinical recruitment sites for CTs with a shared common theme of improving pain management. RCs work within the broad consortium of NCATS Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) hubs that each may contain multiple clinical sites at different institutions, to implement studies.
Grant authorities that allow NCATS and HEAL to forecast this opportunity are 42 U.S.C 241, 284, and 247d.
This is a forecast for a limited competition Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) that will invite application(s) from eligible organizations to apply. Application(s) will be peer-reviewed and only funded if meritorious.
