HBCD Study Biospecimens Administrative Supplement: Resource Generation for Delivery Specimens Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA CHILDREN'S HOSP OF PHILADELPHIA HUANG, HAO (contact); DEMAURO, SARA BONAMO Philadelphia, PA 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.

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (Collaborative U01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-020
Summary:

The objective of the HBCD PRELUDE (Prenatal Experiences and Longitudinal Development) multi-site consortium is to characterize typical brain development from birth through childhood. All sites in this consortium will measure the influence of key biological and environmental factors on child social, cognitive, and emotional development. Researchers will assess how prenatal exposure to opioids and other substances, as well as other adverse environmental factors, affect brain development and other child health outcomes. The study site at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill will work with Wake Forest University to help recruit pregnant women with substance use disorders and enroll mother-infant dyads. This collaboration serves to expand participant diversity and extend recruitment to cover a larger region of North Carolina, a state hit hard by the opioid crisis.

NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-021
Summary:

Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the University of Alabama will enroll pregnant women during their second trimester and follow their infants through a comprehensive longitudinal study. This program will follow 300 mother-infant pairs to understand how early life exposure to drugs and other environmental factors affects developmental trajectories. In addition, this program will determine how genetic and biological factors interact with environmental factors to influence neurodevelopment. This study will take place at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, recruiting participants from mainly rural populations with low access to obstetric/gynecological (OB/GYN) care and high rates of substance use.
