Purpose
The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to continue to support secondary data analyses using archived HIV/AIDS data and specimens to generate new research questions and findings relevant to the scientific mission and priorities of the NICHD, Maternal and Pediatric Infectious Disease Branch(MPIDB) and Office of AIDS Research (OAR). The goals of this initiative are two fold:1) to make specimens from completed studies as well as collections from current studies available to researchers for secondary data analyses, and 2) to employ new and advanced analysis techniques to answer scientific questions about the epidemiology, pathogenesis, treatment, clinical manifestations, cure and complications of HIV/AIDS in maternal, pediatric and adolescent populations.
Background and Objectives
To maximize the scientific potential of valuable maternal and pediatric HIV resources, secondary analysis of archived data and use of specimen collections will allow applicants to further develop and build upon original research. The application of rigorous and new analysis methodologies that link various datasets and de-identified variables is encouraged. Generation of metadata will allow researchers the opportunity to increase statistical power and accuracy in estimates across studies, going beyond original hypotheses to answer new research questions.
MPIDB has a long-established role in the collection and archiving of maternal and pediatric HIV/AIDS data and specimens. The NICHD Data and Specimen Hub (DASH) stores and provides access to phenotypic data linked to bio-samples and access to additional External Archives for other NICHD Funded Studies. Collections include studies and data on HIV/AIDS, pharmacology and pregnancy and infant care, as well as other topics across various life stages and study types. Studies include both domestic and international research spanning infancy to adulthood.
Access to DASH is free and publicly available. Members of the scientific community can search archived study data in DASH without creating an account. However, all data and specimen requests and submissions require registration and an active NICHD DASH account. Instructions on data searches, requests and submissions can be found on the DASH website and as part of the NICHD DASH User Tutorial. In line with continued advancements in the analysis, translation, and dissemination of research findings, this initiative requires that all new data derived from funded projects be submitted to DASH.
Other data and specimen collections relevant for this FOA include, but are not limited to, the International Maternal and Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials Network (IMPAACT), a domestic and international clinical trials network for HIV in infants, children, adolescents and pregnant women, the Adolescent Medicine Trials Networks for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN), studying the HIV prevention cascade and the HIV treatment/care cascade, and the Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort Study (PHACS), which conducts domestic research looking at long-term effects of HIV and its therapy in perinatally infected youth and other studies addressing the impact of unsuppressed HIV. Use of these or other maternal and pediatric data and specimen collections will require compliance with study and network-specific requirements for secondary analyses. This initiative requires that all new data derived from funded projects utilizing data and specimen collections not affiliated with DASH be submitted to DASH or to a comparable publicly accessible archive.
Scope
All applications utilizing existing datasets and specimen collections to explore new research questions relevant to the mission of NICHD and OAR will be considered.
Research areas of interest may include, but are not limited to applications which expand the knowledge base of HIV/AIDS by:
Grant: A support mechanism providing money, property, or both to an eligible entity to carry out an approved project or activity.
The OER Glossary and the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide provide details on these application types. Only those application types listed here are allowed for this FOA.

All instructions in the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide must be followed.
Research Strategy: Describe the focus of the proposed secondary analyses, resources to be used, and potential scientific contributions to the field of HIV/AIDS in maternal, pediatric and adolescent populations and provide feasibility data to support your application, especially if the use of stored samples could impact certain assays or methodologies.
Letters of Support: Letters of support/commitment must be proved for any data sets, resources, biosamples, or partnerships required for the proposed project.
Resource Sharing Plan: Individuals are required to comply with the instructions for the Resource Sharing Plans as provided in the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide.The following modifications also apply:
NICHD Plans for Sharing Human and Non-Human Data and/or Biospecimens
NICHD expects that data, biospecimens, and results of NICHD-funded research will be shared with the wider scientific community to the extent feasible and in a timely manner. NIH Data Sharing Policy expects the timely release and sharing of data to be no later than the acceptance for publication of the main findings from the final dataset. All NICHD applications, regardless of the amount of direct costs requested for any one year, must include a Sharing Plan that addresses sharing of data as well as biospecimens, if applicable . Ideally, this plan would include submitting data or biospecimens to an appropriate repository. These plans will also be considered by program staff as award decisions are being made as appropriate and consistent with achieving the goals of the program.
Specifically, for human data, the NICHD encourages the use of the Data and Specimen Hub (DASH), a centralized resource for researchers to store and access de-identified data from studies funded by NICHD. They can also submit information about the location and availability of biospecimens to DASH, if applicable. Submission of data to the NICHD DASH is one way that grantees may meet the requirements of the NIH Data Sharing Policy and make study data available for secondary analyses. Information about DASH may be obtained at https://dash.nichd.nih.gov/.
If use of DASH is not feasible, NICHD expects awardees to share data and/or biospecimens through other equivalent broad-sharing data and/or biospecimen repositories. For projects generating large-scale human genetic data, applicants should provide a Provisional or Institutional Certification specifying whether the individual-level data can be shared through an NIH approved repository, such as dbGaP, in line with the NIH Genomic Data Sharing Policy (https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-14-124.html).
If you answered Yes to the question Are Human Subjects Involved? on the R&R Other Project Information form, you must include at least one human subjects study record using the Study Record: PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information form or Delayed Onset Study record.
Study Record: PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information
All instructions in the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide must be followed.
Delayed Onset StudyNote: Delayed onset does NOT apply to a study that can be described but will not start immediately (i.e., delayed start).All instructions in the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide must be followed.
Foreign (non-U.S.) institutions must follow policies described in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, and procedures for foreign institutions described throughout the SF424 (R&R) Application Guide.

Recipients of federal financial assistance (FFA) from HHS must administer their programs in compliance with federal civil rights law. This means that recipients of HHS funds must ensure equal access to their programs without regard to a person’s race, color, national origin, disability, age and, in some circumstances, sex and religion. This includes ensuring your programs are accessible to persons with limited English proficiency. HHS recognizes that research projects are often limited in scope for many reasons that are nondiscriminatory, such as the principal investigator’s scientific interest, funding limitations, recruitment requirements, and other considerations. Thus, criteria in research protocols that target or exclude certain populations are warranted where nondiscriminatory justifications establish that such criteria are appropriate with respect to the health or safety of the subjects, the scientific study design, or the purpose of the research.
In accordance with the statutory provisions contained in Section 872 of the Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2009 (Public Law 110-417), NIH awards will be subject to the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) requirements. FAPIIS requires Federal award making officials to review and consider information about an applicant in the designated integrity and performance system (currently FAPIIS) prior to making an award. An applicant, at its option, may review information in the designated integrity and performance systems accessible through FAPIIS and comment on any information about itself that a Federal agency previously entered and is currently in FAPIIS. The Federal awarding agency will consider any comments by the applicant, in addition to other information in FAPIIS, in making a judgement about the applicant’s integrity, business ethics, and record of performance under Federal awards when completing the review of risk posed by applicants as described in 45 CFR Part 75.205 Federal awarding agency review of risk posed by applicants. This provision will apply to all NIH grants and cooperative agreements except fellowships.
For additional guidance regarding how the provisions apply to NIH grant programs, please contact the Scientific/Research Contact that is identified in Section VII under Agency Contacts of this FOA. HHS provides general guidance to recipients of FFA on meeting their legal obligation to take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to their programs by persons with limited English proficiency. Please see https://www.hhs.gov/civil-rights/for-individuals/special-topics/limited-english-proficiency/index.html. The HHS Office for Civil Rights also provides guidance on complying with civil rights laws enforced by HHS. Please see https://www.hhs.gov/civil-rights/for-individuals/section-1557/index.htmlhttps://www.hhs.gov/civil-rights/for-providers/laws-regulations-guidance/index.html.
