BoostPrime, A Novel Digital Therapeutic for Craving Mitigation in Opioid Use Disorder Cross-Cutting Research Small Business Programs NIDA NXTECH, INC. PATEL, SALIL Patchogue, NY 2023
NOFO Title: Developing Regulated Therapeutic and Diagnostic Solutions for Patients Affected by Opioid and/or Stimulants use Disorders (OUD/StUD) (R43/R44 - Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-021
Summary:

Cravings and impulsivity are key contributors that lead people to return to opioid misuse, but are not addressed by currently available treatments and tools. This project will develop and validate BoostPrime, a customized digital therapeutic software tool that delivers novel cognitive training exercises. The tool aims to help address cravings and strengthen momentary self-control for people with opioid use disorder by incorporating.

Diversity Supplement - Rapid Actionable Data for Opioid Response in Kentucky (RADOR-KY) Cross-Cutting Research Increasing Participant Diversity, Inclusion, and Engagement in HEAL Research NIDA UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY SLAVOVA, SVETLA STEFANOVA (contact); TALBERT, JEFFERY C Lexington, KY 2023
NOFO Title: Notice of Special Interest to Encourage Eligible NIH HEAL Initiative Awardees to Apply for PA-20-222: Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research (Admin Supp - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: NOT-NS-20-107
Summary:

RADOR-KY is a near real-time, state-wide surveillance system to monitor prevention and treatment services for opioid use disorder (OUD). This project will fill gaps in this system by capturing data from agencies receiving state funding to provide treatment and support services for people with OUD. Access to the additional data will help expand and improve surveillance dashboards being used to coordinate and target resources for preventing overdose deaths.

1/6 HBCD Prenatal Experiences and Longitudinal Development (PRELUDE) Consortium Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL RES INST OU, XIAWEI (contact); ACHESON, ASHLEY; MCKELVEY, LORRAINE M Little Rock, AR 2023
NOFO Title: Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): HEAL Initiative: Biospecimen Collection in Pregnancy
NOFO Number: NOT-DA-23-005
Summary:

Opioid use during pregnancy is associated with adverse outcomes for pregnant individuals and offspring. The mechanisms through which these outcomes arise and the consequences of prenatal opioid exposure on child health and development remain largely unexplored. The HEALthy Brain and Child Development (HBCD) Study is a nationwide longitudinal prospective study of early child development that will assess a broad spectrum of biological, behavioral, social, and health factors among 7,500 pregnant women and their children from pregnancy to mid-childhood. This supplement will expand the biospecimen collection of the HBCD protocol at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to include delivery specimens (placenta, cord tissue, and cord blood). This will provide an unprecedented resource-generating opportunity for the larger scientific community to comprehensively evaluate mechanisms that mediate the connection between substance use during pregnancy and adverse neonatal, infant, and/or maternal health outcomes and inform innovative preventive strategies.

Leveraging Data to Action: Accelerating Emergency Department OUD Care by Improving Data Access and Infrastructure Cross-Cutting Research Translating Data 2 Action to Prevent Overdose NIDA YALE UNIVERSITY VENKATESH, ARJUN KRISHNA (contact); HAWK, KATHRYN; TAYLOR, RICHARD ANDREW New Haven, CO 2023
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEAL Data2Action – Innovation and Acceleration Projects, Phased Awards (R61/R33, Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-057
Summary:

Emergency departments (EDs) are key settings for identifying and treating opioid use disorder (OUD), but EDs are underused for this purpose. This project aims to develop a data system that automates and integrates electronic health record and administrative data from EDs into the Clinical Emergency Department Registry, partnering with the American College of Emergency Physicians. The research will assess the digital readiness of ED systems before developing and deploying the enhanced ED OUD data infrastructure. This research aims to guide near-real time hospital quality improvement initiatives, toward development of a web-based, near-real time dashboard that can be used in EDs across the country.

Targeted Temperature Modulation with Smart Radiometric Monitoring for Effective and Long-Lasting Opioid-Free Pelvic Pain Relief: A Novel Low-Cost, Portable, Tampon-Sized Thermal Transfer Device Cross-Cutting Research Small Business Programs NICHD H3PELVIC THERAPY SYSTEMS, INC. LYON, ZACHARY W Lewisville, NC 2023
NOFO Title: HEAL INITIATIVE: Development of Therapies and Technologies Directed at Enhanced Pain Management (R43/R44 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-NS-23-006
Summary:

Pelvic pain (PP) includes more than 20 different painful and debilitating conditions, such as urinary tract infections, menstrual cramps, endometriosis, overactive bladder, and interstitial cystitis, and affects millions of people. Globally, pelvic pain affects 1 in 5 women and 1 in 12 men. This project will develop an instrument to monitor and treat pain-associated temperature changes in the pelvic region to reduce chronic pelvic pain. This novel system is intended to be used at home with personalized settings.
