Opportunity snapshot. This Grants.gov announcement - Emergency Awards RADx-RAD: Novel Biosensing for Screening, Diagnosis and Monitoring of COVID-19 From Skin and The Oral Cavity (R44 Clinical Trial Not Allowed) - is cataloged under number RFA-OD-20-020 and tied to CFDA assistance listing 93.121;93.233;93.273;93.286;93.307;93.310;93.350;93.837;93.838;93.839;93.840;93.846;93.865;93.879, posted by National Institutes of Health. Grants.gov currently shows the opportunity as closed, first posted on August 6, 2020. The funding category is Discretionary, delivered as a grant.
Award economics. The award range on file is Varies by applicant. Cost sharing is not required, so applicants do not need to commit matching funds to be competitive on this opportunity. Federal award ranges are often upper bounds; actual allocations reflect program appropriations, the strength of the applicant pool, and the evaluation committee's scoring.
Deadline and action path. This opportunity closed on September 18, 2020. Future funding cycles may be published under the same CFDA number, so monitoring the parent program page is the most reliable way to catch re-announcements. Every Grants.gov submission requires an active SAM.gov registration and a Unique Entity ID. Review the Eligibility section below carefully, federal eligibility categories (nonprofit, state or local government, tribal, individual, educational institution, small business) have distinct registration and reporting requirements. Pre-application outreach to the listed agency contact is permitted and often welcomed, it helps clarify scope and scoring priorities. Before acting on the deadline or award figures above, verify them directly on the official Grants.gov listing, amendments can change dates and amounts after this page was last refreshed.

Description
The goal of this RFA is to solicit direct to Phase II SBIR proposals for development of novel, non-traditional, approaches to identify the current SARS-CoV-2 virus or other biomarkers of the COVID-19 disease for use in outbreaks of COVID-19, as well as for use in future pandemics resulting from unknown viruses. This FOA is seeking applications for innovative portable devices able to produce reliable associations between biomarkers emanating from skin and the oral cavity to patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19. Specifically, biosensing devices are expected to target skin or the oral cavity as sampling sites. Skin biosensing must detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs, i.e. scents or odors) emanating from skin in passive and noninvasive manner for use at the point of care. In addition to VOCs, oral biosensing technologies may target a wealth of biological, chemical and physical biosignatures representative of COVID-19 that can be sampled from exhaled breath/droplets, saliva, and tissues in the oral cavity. Leveraging the accessibility of human skin and the oral cavity, this FOA seeks 1) to advance novel biosensing technologies that are innovative, safe, and effective, and 2) to implement such technologies into devices with integrated artificial intelligent (AI) systems for the detection, diagnosis, prediction, prognosis and monitoring of COVID-19 in clinical, community and everyday settings. For skin monitoring, the device can include Electronic-nose (E-nose) technology or Gas Chromatography (GC). Thus, we are calling this program, the SCENT (Screening for COVID-19 by E-Nose Technology). Biosensing devices for the oral cavity can be technologies that have been thoroughly characterized as safe and effective in preclinical studies. Non-invasive, real-time, continuous or periodic measurements of VOCs and other biomarkers in breath, and emanating from oral tissues as signatures of onset, progression, and resolution of COVID-19 are desirable.
