Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Medical Countermeasure (MCM) Participant Basic Agreement (PBA)
Solicitation # W911SR-26-R-HEAL
The Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Medical Countermeasure (MCM) Participant Basic Agreement (PBA) is a continuous, open solicitation designed to establish a dynamic, pre-qualified network of partners to accelerate the development and fielding of next-generation medical defenses against CBRN threats. Operated by the Capability Program Executive for CBRN Defense (CPE CBRND) under the Department of Defense, this agreement functions as an Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ)-like vehicle authorized under 10 U.S.C. §§4021, 4022, and 4023, exempting it from the Competition in Contracting Act of 1984. The program seeks innovative, threat-agnostic host-directed therapeutics that enhance physiological resilience by targeting critical systems such as neurological function, respiratory stability, immune response, hematologic and vascular integrity, and cellular stress and repair pathways. Complementary to this, the government also seeks broad-spectrum therapeutic candidates that can directly neutralize CBRN agents, with emphasis on agents possessing environmental stability, non-cold-chain storage capability, and simplified administration routes like oral, intranasal, or autoinjector formats suitable for immediate use in austere, far-forward operational environments. Interested parties, including MCM developers at any stage from Phase I through FDA licensure and supporting organizations such as CROs, CDMOs, and regulatory experts, must submit a white paper of no more than five pages detailing product mechanisms, efficacy data from validated animal models, regulatory status including IND history and clinical trial results, manufacturing capacity and scale-up plans, and company experience. Collaboration is mandatory, with applicants required to state willingness to team or partner within the PBA ecosystem. Participation requires SAM registration, and all award decisions are based on technical merit and strategic alignment with the program’s mission to build a layered, resilient, and sustainable medical defense portfolio, without fixed deadlines or competitive bidding. The agreement supports the development of dual-use medical solutions with potential applications in civilian critical care, emphasizing ruggedized formulations, clear labeling, durable packaging, and long-term stability to ensure readiness in the most challenging operational conditions. Technical and administrative inquiries should be directed to Hunter Robinson or Alexander Mayatte at the Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland office.
