Description

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to solicit applications for UH2/UH3 cooperative agreements to support and inform the future development and use of COAs for cBCIs in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The UH2/UH3 cooperative agreement involves two milestone driven phases: 1) the UH2 Phase will include a systematic landscape analysis of the available literature, relevant data sources, and interviews with key opinion leaders (KOLs) to document COAs for cBCIs used clinically and identify gaps between current COAs used in cBCI studies and other outcome measures that could demonstrate functional benefits for ALS patients with severe communication limitations; 2) the UH3 phase will consist of patient and caregiver focus groups to collect information about symptoms, functional status, and perceived benefits/risks of cBCIs.Each phase will have a limit of 1 year for a total award period of 2 years. The UH2/UH3 application must be submitted as a single application, and applicants should note specific instructions for each phase in this FOA.
