PCR tests must be assayed in Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified laboratories (e.g., hospital, public health, or commercial) to administer the tests and return test results to participants as quickly as possible. Rapid tests are conducted at or near the place where a specimen is collected, usually outside a laboratory setting and provide results to patients within minutes. The proposed (and implemented) COVID-19 testing must be fully FDA-Emergency Use Authorized/cleared/approved, and used solely for the specific, on-label purpose for which they were developed and authorized/approved/cleared. This includes sample collection, assays, and test performance. In the context of COVID-19, these tests are diagnostic tests that provide results to patients within minutes.</p><p><i>Point-of-Care Testing</i><strong>:</strong> testing done at or near the point of care that involves performing a diagnostic test.</p><p style="margin-left:0in;"><strong>Background</strong></p><p>The <a href="https://www.nih.gov/research-training/medical-research-initiatives/radx/radx-programs#radx-up">RADx -UP initiative</a> seeks to address COVID-19 morbidity and mortality disparities among underserved and vulnerable populations with disproportionate rates of SARS-CoV-2 and/or undue COVID-19 burden by understanding strategies and interventions to increase testing access, acceptability, and uptake. To date, more than 135 projects are engaging participants in all US states as well as American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands.</p><p><strong>NOFO Goals</strong></p><p>The Office of the Director (OD) is requesting applications for grants (R21) addressing the objectives described below. Projects supported via this Notice of Funding Opportunity will be part of the RADx -UP initiative. This Novel Insights through Cross-Site Analyses of Existing RADx-UP Data opportunity will support new exploratory/developmental grants for analysis of existing data collected within the RADx-UP consortium. Successful applications will leverage common demographics and other data from a minimum of three sites (with geographic diversity; inclusion of a greater number of sites is encouraged) to ask important questions around COVID-19 testing access and uptake. Applications that address factors affecting COVID-19 testing and related COVID-19 outcomes, specific COVID-19 response, intervention approaches within and across populations, and other novel questions are encouraged.</p><p>To maximize the scientific potential of valuable RADx-UP data and resources, analyses of existing archived data will allow applicants to further develop and build upon original research. Analyses of existing datasets offers a cost-effective way to collaborate and foster research within NIH&rsquo;s scientific mission. The application of rigorous and new analysis methodologies that merge or link various RADx-UP 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. </p><p><strong>Research Objectives:</strong></p><p>This research seeks to gain novel insights regarding data collected by RADx-UP studies that have shared both common and project-defined data elements on multiple topics related to COVID-19 testing and disparities among underserved and vulnerable groups.</p><p>All applications utilizing existing RADx-UP datasets and collections to explore new research questions relevant to the mission of RADx-UP will be considered. Generation of new primary data is not allowed. This Notice of Funding Opportunity will not support the collection of new data. </p><p>The data analyses will be focused on underserved and vulnerable populations and questions related to reducing health disparities based on topics and research studies that <i>include, but are not limited to</i>, the following areas:</p><ul><li><i>Testing Interventions:</i> Analyses to evaluate the effectiveness of testing interventions and/or what testing interventions can be implemented to decrease COVID-19 disparities in different regions of the U.S. and across demographic groups.</li><li><i>COVID-19 Testing Options:</i> Analyses to determine what COVID-19 testing options (e.g., surveillance, symptomatic, etc.) are most acceptable and in what setting (such as community-based organizations, health clinics, school/academic environments).</li><li><i>Common Data Elements:</i> Analyses of Common Data Elements for novel data comparison and synthesis across project sites and smaller population groups. RADx-UP CDEs collected from the projects are specified at<a href=" https://radx-up.org/research/cdes/"> https://radx-up.org/research/cdes/</a>. </li><li><i>Social Determinants of Health (SDOH): </i>Analyses on how SDOH help identify, understand, and address testing and vaccine access and uptake in low-resourced geographic areas or communities with high levels of social vulnerability. </li><li><i>Community-Engaged Interventions to address Stigma, Bias, Distrust and Fear: </i>Analyses on what type of community-driven interventions effectively ameliorate stigma, bias, distrust, and fear regarding symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 testing and vaccination. </li><li><i>Psychosocial, Behavioral, and Ethical Factors Driving COVID-19 Testing and Vaccination:</i> Analyses on what specific psychosocial, behavioral, and ethical factors drive COVID-19 testing and vaccine uptake within and across underserved populations, including the role of healthcare, academic, and social service settings in response to COVID-19 health disparities. </li><li><i>Messaging and Policies Impact on COVID-19 Testing and Vaccination:</i> Analyses on whether and how messaging and policies at the local, state, and federal levels in different jurisdictions affect COVID-19 testing and vaccine uptake over time.</li></ul><p><strong>Data Sources</strong></p><p>The "Novel Insights through Cross-Site Analyses of Existing RADx-UP Data" Projects will build upon the work of RADx-UP and other <a href="https://www.nih.gov/research-training/medical-research-initiatives/radx/radx-programs">RADx</a> (<a href="https://www.nih.gov/research-training/medical-research-initiatives/radx/radx-programs">https://www.nih.gov/research-training/medical-research-initiatives/radx/radx-programs</a>) focused projects.</p><p>The <a href="https://radx-hub.nih.gov/">RADx Data Hub</a> (<a href="https://radx-hub.nih.gov/">https://radx-hub.nih.gov/</a>) will serve as a primary resource for deidentified data from the RADx-UP projects.

An R21 grant application need not have extensive background material or preliminary information. Accordingly, reviewers will emphasize the conceptual framework, the level of innovation, and the potential to significantly advance our knowledge or understanding. Appropriate justification for the proposed work can be provided through literature citations, data from other sources, or, when available, from investigator-generated data. Preliminary data are not required for R21 applications; however, they may be included if available.</p>

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&rsquo;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 and 2 CFR Part 200.206 Federal awarding agency review of risk posed by applicants. This provision will apply to all NIH grants and cooperative agreements except fellowships. </p>
