The Preclinical Efficacy & Intermediate Endpoint Biomarkers Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a structured federal procurement vehicle designed to support comprehensive cancer prevention research and drug development. Administered by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), specifically the National Cancer Institute, this contract enables sophisticated preclinical research targeting cancer prevention strategies. The vehicle focuses on evaluating potential chemopreventive and immunopreventive regimens, identifying pharmacodynamic biomarkers, and supporting the development of candidate cancer preventive agents across multiple research domains.

Recent task orders under this IDIQ demonstrate a range of cancer prevention research initiatives, typically valued between $1-2 million and spanning 2-3 year performance periods. The current task orders include research at prominent academic medical institutions like the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and the University of Oklahoma, investigating innovative approaches such as time-restricted feeding for pancreatic cancer prevention and developing novel mRNA vaccines for triple-negative breast cancer. These delivery orders are competitively awarded without specific small business set-asides, indicating open competition among research institutions. The contract's $149,995,000 shared ceiling suggests substantial funding potential for multiple research projects addressing preclinical cancer prevention across different cancer types and potential intervention strategies.
