The MDEpiNet partnership can be utilized to gain scientific and clinical grounding for the medical countermeasures (MCM) initiative, in order to develop the groundwork for the best evidence-based decision-making which is needed prior to a chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear (CBRN) event to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of medical devices and radiological products before, during, and after an event and to ensure that MCM is part of the total product life cycle for these devices and products. By leveraging the MDEpiNet partnership, it is expected that the regulatory science advances in infrastructure and methodology developed through the efforts of this MCM project will be applicable to a broad range of medical device areas and that this work will strengthen overall lifecycle performance evaluation capabilities. Thus, this project will both:
(a) facilitate systematic evaluation and integration of available data for medical devices and radiological health with a focus on devices potentially affected by a CBRN agent event and
(b) advance regulatory science to improve the knowledge base for methodological design and infrastructure capabilities throughout the total product life cycle.
To be prepared to evaluate medical devices and radiological health in the event of a variety of potential CBRN agent events, three aspects of medical device (and radiological product)-associated MCM measurement may be needed. First, there are devices (and radiological products) that are likely to be used more frequently during a CBRN emergency event. These devices (including ventilators, influenza-related devices, and hemostatic and lifesaving devices) will need careful monitoring for safety and effectiveness before, during, and after the event. Second, there are devices that are likely to be used in more vulnerable populations or that have already been in use in populations that will become more vulnerable. These devices (including radiological products, hip implants, wound therapies, and devices used for infection control) will need an established baseline assessment in postmarket datasets in order to quickly identify differences in effectiveness and safety in patient populations made vulnerable by CBRN events. Third, there are devices whose safety or effectiveness may be compromised in the event of a CBRN event or that are the target of an attack. These devices include primarily electric devices or radiological products (examples include cardiac resynchronization therapy and magnetic resonance imaging). A baseline assessment in postmarket datasets will need to be established prior to a CBRN event in order to quickly identify differences in effectiveness and safety due to such an event.
This project will compile and continually update all of the existing data on medical devices related to the MCM initiative through systematic evidence synthesis. Through this effort, a total product life cycle approach to evaluation of MCM-priority device safety and effectiveness can be utilized for regulatory and other scientific/clinical decision-making. In addition, administrative claims and electronic healthcare datasets will be evaluated for baseline clinical data with appropriate innovative methodologies with easy extension to follow-up and capture of data in the event of a CBRN event. The medical and scientific community will be engaged through dissemination of the findings. Experts will also be encouraged to provide their opinions through thinktanks. Leveraging the MDEpiNet partnership will provide a comprehensive approach to evaluating MCM-priority devices and radiological products prior to, during, and after a CBRN emergency.
There are 4 key project areas identified for this effort that must be addressed:
(1) Evidence Synthesis: Novel Approaches To Enhance Postmarket Evaluation of MCM-priority Medical Devices: develop evidence-based regulatory science for MCM-priority medical devices; develop a comprehensive and continually updated overview compiling all of the existing data for up to nine (9) medical device areas related to MCM critical to being fully informed in the event of CBRN agent events or when engaging any new potential projects for the initiative. This evaluation will include data from the pre-and postmarket FDA experience, published and unpublished literature, expert opinion, and use of innovative statistical techniques to synthesize all data into a manageable body of knowledge.
(2) Development of MCM-specific patient-centered comparative conceptual total product life cycle (TPLC) framework and patient-centered outcomes research: adapt the developed patient-centered comparative conceptual TPLC framework for MCM; apply the framework to evaluation of up to five (5) MCM-priority devices, including development of appropriate study designs and analytical strategies and application to CDRH regulatory decision-making.
(3) Innovative methodological approaches for MCM-priority medical devices: assess insurance claims data, electronic healthcare data, and other available data sources for determining utilization and outcomes associated with up to five (5) MCM-priority medical device areas; determine the gaps in available data within each MCM-priority device area; adapt and utilize novel methodologies within the existing data to fill the gaps and to provide useful utilization and outcomes data as a baseline for measuring the impact of any CBRN events.
(4) Scientific Infrastructure and Coordination of Stakeholder Meetings, Think Tanks, Workshops, and Dissemination of Findings: solicit and coordinate participation from collaborators, stakeholders, and external parties with relevant MCM expertise in up to ten (10) scientific think tanks, workshops, or conferences and coordinate dissemination of the results of projects performed in areas 1, 2, and 3 listed above via collaborative authorship and publication of reports, manuscripts, white papers, presentations at scientific conferences and other public communication efforts.
Through this effort, a total product life cycle approach to evaluation of MCM-priority device safety and effectiveness can be utilized for regulatory and other scientific/clinical decision-making. In addition, administrative claims and electronic healthcare datasets will be evaluated for baseline clinical data with appropriate innovative methodologies with easy extension to follow-up and capture of data in the event of a CBRN event. The medical and scientific community will be engaged through dissemination of the findings. Experts will also be encouraged to provide their opinions through thinktanks. Leveraging the MDEpiNet partnership will provide a comprehensive approach to evaluating MCM-priority devices and radiological products prior to, during, and after a CBRN emergency while improving the regulatory science infrastructure framework and methodology development.

Only the review criteria described below will be considered in the review process. As part of the FDA mission, all applications submitted to the FDA in support of biomedical and behavioral research are evaluated for scientific and technical merit through the FDA peer review system.
Reviewers will provide an overall impact/priority score to reflect their assessment of the likelihood for the project to exert a sustained, powerful influence on the research field(s) involved, in consideration of the following review criteria and additional review criteria (as applicable for the project proposed).
Reviewers will consider each of the review criteria below in the determination of scientific merit, and give a separate score for each. An application does not need to be strong in all categories to be judged likely to have major scientific impact. For example, a project that by its nature is not innovative may be essential to advance a field.
Significance
Does the project address an important problem or a critical barrier to progress in the field? If the aims of the project are achieved, how will scientific knowledge, technical capability, and/or clinical practice be improved? How will successful completion of the aims change the concepts, methods, technologies, treatments, services, or preventative interventions that drive this field?
Investigator(s)
Are the PD(s)/PI(s), collaborators, and other researchers well suited to the project? If Early Stage Investigators or New Investigators, or in the early stages of independent careers, do they have appropriate experience and training? If established, have they demonstrated an ongoing record of accomplishments that have advanced their field(s)? If the project is collaborative or multi-PD/PI, do the investigators have complementary and integrated expertise; are their leadership approach, governance and organizational structure appropriate for the project?
Innovation
Does the application challenge and seek to shift current research or clinical practice paradigms by utilizing novel theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions? Are the concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions novel to one field of research or novel in a broad sense? Is a refinement, improvement, or new application of theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions proposed?
Approach
Are the overall strategy, methodology, and analyses
well-reasoned and appropriate to accomplish the specific aims of the project?
Are potential problems, alternative strategies, and benchmarks for success
presented? If the project is in the early stages of development, will the
strategy establish feasibility and will particularly risky aspects be
managed?
If the project involves clinical research, are the plans for 1) protection of
human subjects from research risks, and 2) inclusion of minorities and members
of both sexes/genders, as well as the inclusion of children, justified in terms
of the scientific goals and research strategy proposed?
Environment
Will the scientific environment in which the work will be done contribute to the probability of success? Are the institutional support, equipment and other physical resources available to the investigators adequate for the project proposed? Will the project benefit from unique features of the scientific environment, subject populations, or collaborative arrangements?
As applicable for the project proposed, reviewers will evaluate the following additional items while determining scientific and technical merit, and in providing an overall impact/priority score, but will not give separate scores for these items.
Protections for Human Subjects
For research that involves human subjects but does
not involve one of the six categories of research that are exempt under 45 CFR
Part 46, the committee will generally evaluate the justification for
involvement of human subjects and the proposed protections from research risk
relating to their participation by primarily using the following five review
criteria: 1) risk to subjects, 2) adequacy of protection against risks, 3)
potential benefits to the subjects and others, 4) importance of the knowledge
to be gained, and 5) data and safety monitoring for clinical trials. If the
research will ultimately support an application submitted to FDA or if the
research is a clinical investigation regulated by FDA under sections 505(i) and
520(g) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act [21 U.S.C. 355(i) and
360j(g)] then the research must comply with the human subject protections in 21
CFR parts 50 and 56,
For research that involves human subjects and meets the criteria for one or
more of the six categories of research that are exempt under 45 CFR Part 46,
the committee will evaluate: 1) the justification for the exemption, 2) human
subjects involvement and characteristics, and 3) sources of materials. For
additional information on review of the Human Subjects section, please refer to
the Human
Subjects Protection and Inclusion Guidelines.
Inclusion of Women, Minorities, and Children
When the proposed project involves clinical research, the committee will evaluate the proposed plans for inclusion of minorities and members of both genders, as well as the inclusion of children. For additional information on review of the Inclusion section, please refer to the Human Subjects Protection and Inclusion Guidelines.
Vertebrate Animals
The committee will evaluate the involvement of live vertebrate animals as part of the scientific assessment according to the following five points: 1) proposed use of the animals, and species, strains, ages, sex, and numbers to be used; 2) justifications for the use of animals and for the appropriateness of the species and numbers proposed; 3) adequacy of veterinary care; 4) procedures for limiting discomfort, distress, pain and injury to that which is unavoidable in the conduct of scientifically sound research including the use of analgesic, anesthetic, and tranquilizing drugs and/or comfortable restraining devices; and 5) methods of euthanasia and reason for selection if not consistent with the AVMA Guidelines on Euthanasia. For additional information on review of the Vertebrate Animals section, please refer to the Worksheet for Review of the Vertebrate Animal Section.

Resource Sharing Plans
Reviewers will comment on whether the following Resource Sharing Plans, or the rationale for not sharing the following types of resources, are reasonable: 1) Data Sharing Plan; 2) Sharing Model Organisms; and 3) Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS).
Budget and Period of Support
Reviewers will consider whether the budget and the requested period of support are fully justified and reasonable in relation to the proposed research. Does the amount requested from FDA appear reasonable as partial support of the total work plan, facilities, staff, etc.? Is the budget organized, reasonable, and clearly stated? Does the budget account for the proposed work plan? Are indirect costs justified and reasonable in relation to the proposed work plan? Is there a cost sharing plan proposed? If a plan is proposed, is it a fixed percentage/amount, a minimum percentage/amount, or a graduated percentage/amount? Is it negotiable?
Applications will be evaluated for scientific and technical merit by (an) appropriate Objective Review Group(s) in accordance with FDA's Objective Review Policy and Procedures.
As part of the objective review process, all applications:
Appeals of initial peer review will not be accepted for applications submitted response to this FOA.
Applications will be assigned to the appropriate FDA Institute or Center. Applications will compete for available funds with all other recommended applications submitted in response to this FOA. Following initial peer review, recommended applications will receive a second level of review by the National Cancer Advisory Board. The following will be considered in making funding decisions:
After the peer review of the application is completed, the PD/PI will be able to access his or her Summary Statement (written critique) via the eRA Commons.
Information regarding the disposition of applications is available in the HHS Grants Policy Statement.
If the application is under consideration for funding, FDA
will request "just-in-time" information from the applicant as
described in the HHS Grants
Policy Statement.
A formal notification in the form of a Notice of Award (NoA) will be provided
to the applicant organization for successful applications. The NoA signed by
the grants management officer is the authorizing document and will be sent via
email to the grantee’s business official.
Awardees must comply with any funding restrictions described in Section IV.5. Funding Restrictions. Selection
of an application for award is not an authorization to begin performance. Any
costs incurred before receipt of the NoA are at the recipient's risk. These
costs may be reimbursed only to the extent considered allowable pre-award costs.
Any application awarded in response to this FOA will be subject to the DUNS,
CCR Registration, and Transparency Act requirements as noted on the HHS Grants
Policy Statement.
All FDA grant and cooperative agreement awards include the HHS Grants Policy Statement as part of the NoA. For these terms of award, see the HHS Grants Policy Statement.
Cooperative Agreement Terms and Conditions of Award
The following special terms of award are in addition to, and
not in lieu of, otherwise applicable U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
administrative guidelines, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS)
grant administration regulations at 45 CFR Parts 74 and 92 (Part 92 is
applicable when State and local Governments are eligible to apply), and other
HHS, PHS, and FDA grant administration policies.
The administrative and funding instrument used for this program will be the
cooperative agreement, an "assistance" mechanism (rather than an
"acquisition" mechanism), in which substantial FDA programmatic
involvement with the awardees is anticipated during the performance of the
activities. Under the cooperative agreement, the FDA purpose is to support and
stimulate the recipients' activities by involvement in and otherwise working
jointly with the award recipients in a partnership role; it is not to assume
direction, prime responsibility, or a dominant role in the activities.
Consistent with this concept, the dominant role and prime responsibility
resides with the awardees for the project as a whole, although specific tasks
and activities may be shared among the awardees and the FDA as defined below.
The PD(s)/PI(s) will have the primary responsibility for:
FDA staff have substantial programmatic involvement that is above and beyond the normal stewardship role in awards, as described below:
Areas of Joint Responsibility include:
Dispute Resolution:
Any disagreements that may arise in scientific or programmatic matters (within the scope of the award) between award recipients and the FDA may be brought to Dispute Resolution. A Dispute Resolution Panel composed of three members will be convened. It will have three members: a designee of the Steering Committee chosen without FDA staff voting, one FDA designee, and a third designee with expertise in the relevant area who is chosen by the other two; in the case of individual disagreement, the first member may be chosen by the individual awardee. This special dispute resolution procedure does not alter the awardee's right to appeal an adverse action that is otherwise appealable in accordance with PHS regulation 42 CFR Part 50, Subpart D and DHHS regulation 45 CFR Part 16.
When multiple years are involved, awardees will be required to submit the Non-Competing Continuation Grant Progress Report (PHS 2590) annually and financial statements as required in the HHS Grants Policy Statement.
A final progress report, invention statement, and the expenditure data portion of the Federal Financial Report are required for closeout of an award, as described in the HHS Grants Policy Statement.
The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (Transparency Act), includes a requirement for awardees of Federal grants to report information about first-tier subawards and executive compensation under Federal assistance awards issued in FY2011 or later. All awardees of applicable FDA grants and cooperative agreements are required to report to the Federal Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) available at www.fsrs.gov on all subawards over $25,000. See the HHS Grants Policy Statement for additional information on this reporting requirement.
We encourage inquiries concerning this funding opportunity and welcome the opportunity to answer questions from potential applicants.
