Sample Task Order #3 – Statement of Work

NOTE: The following sample Task Orders indicated in this attachment are provided to assess the offeror’s capabilities to conduct and fulfill the requirements of the Statement of Work for clinical trials of similar scope and size to be issued under Task Orders awarded in response to this solicitation. These sample Task Orders will NOT be executed nor will awards be issued for the sample work. Offerors are to include in their proposals a response that specifies the methods by which each sample Task Order will be fulfilled with associated costs.

Single Ascending Dose (SAD) / Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) Study

1. Scope

The scope of activities includes all tasks and activities associated with the execution of the requested Phase I trial described herein. The development and finalization for the clinical protocol entitled: A Phase I randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of BPN-XXXXX following single ascending dose administration to healthy volunteers including but not limited to the development and finalization of study design elements, safety assessments, PK assessments and other protocol requirements performed by the Contractor.

Note: The offerors are to provide a technical proposal including timelines and cost estimate for the execution of above referenced protocol. For the purposes of proposal preparations, assume that the Contractor is tasked with designing a Phase I single ascending dose/multiple ascending dose clinical trial to evaluate the safety profile and PK of BPN-XXXXX, a novel neurotherapeutic in healthy adult volunteers. Objectives of the protocol are: a) characterize the systemic safety profile of BPN-XXXXX in a single ascending dose trial and b) characterize the PK of BPN-XXXXX across the range of doses. The design is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled first-in-human clinical trial. All appropriate non-clinical studies, including the Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling repeat-dose, Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) toxicology studies have been conducted. Significant safety issues were identified at doses 10-fold above the No-Observed-Adverse-Effect Level (NOAEL) in each of these studies. BPN-XXXXX has a NOAEL of 1000 mg/kg/day in the most sensitive animal species tested (rats). Following multiple doses, changes in hematology were revealed. BPN-XXXXX is well absorbed orally and has an elimination half-life of approximately 8 hours in the rat.

2. Technical Requirements

Independently and not as an agent of the Government, the Contractor shall furnish all necessary services, qualified personnel, materials, equipment, and facilities not otherwise provided by the Government as needed to conduct the clinical trials as described in the Statement of Work.

In addition to the specific technical requirements specified below, the Contractor shall fulfill the general technical requirements defined in the Parent Statement of Work, which shall be considered general technical requirements for all clinical project task orders that are issued.

Clinical project task orders will consist of two components: Base Requirement (Protocol Development and Trial Preparation) and a Quantity Option (Clinical Trial Implementation).

Note: Please reference the SAD/MAD Draft Protocol Synopsis for the purposes of preparing the technical proposal. A separate cost estimate must be provided for the Base Requirement and the Quantity Option.

Specifically, the Contractor shall perform all activities as outlined below:

A. Base Requirement: Protocol Development and Trial Preparation

This includes all items and activities that are listed under Specific Technical Requirements for “Protocol Development and Trial Preparation.”

B. Quantity Option: Clinical Trial Implementation

This includes all items and activities that are listed under Specific Technical Requirements for “Trial Implementation.”

SAD/MAD DRAFT PROTOOL SYNOPSIS

Study Title A Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study of BPN-XXXXX in Healthy Adult Volunteers

Study Number TBD

Study Phase Phase I, First in Human

Subject Population Healthy Volunteers aged 21-65 inclusive

Objectives 1. Characterize the systemic safety of single and multiple doses of BPN-XXXXX

2. Characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple doses of BPN-XXXXX

3. Determine effects of single and multiple BPN-XXXXX on serum levels of Protein X, a pharmacodynamics (PD) marker

Study Design and Duration

This is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, sequential single and multiple ascending dose study. There will be 5 dose levels in the single and 5 dose levels in the multiple ascending dose components. Each cohort will consist of 8 subjects, 6 receiving BPN-XXXXX and 2 receiving placebo. Consistent with NINDS policies, efforts should be made to include both male and females and diverse races and ethnicity.

All subjects will participate in a screening period lasting up to 28 days, during which they will be assessed for eligibility.

Single Ascending Dose

Cohorts 1-3 will reside in the research unit from Day -1 through Day 3;

Cohorts 4 and 5 on Days -1 to 4. On Day -1 baseline safety and PD markers will be obtained. Subjects will receive a single oral dose on the morning of Day 1. Safety, PK and PD will be obtained through Day 3 in early cohorts, though Day 4 in later. A phone call to ask about adverse events and concomitant medications will take place on Day 6. Subjects will return for an outpatient visit on Day 8.

Multiple Ascending Dose

Cohorts 1-3 will reside in the research unit from Day -1 to Day 3; Cohorts 4 and 5 from Day -1 to Day 4. Subjects will receive the first oral dose on the morning of Day 1. Safety, PK and PD will be obtained through Day 3 or 4, as appropriate, and subjects will be discharged from the research unit with investigational product (IP) to take as an outpatient. They will return for outpatient visits on Days 6, 8, and 12. They will be readmitted to the unit on the morning of Day 15 and receive the final oral dose in the research unit.

Safety, PK and PD will be collected until discharge on Day 17 for Cohorts 1- 3, day 18 for Cohorts 4 and 5. Subjects will return for a last safety visit on Day 22.

Specifics regarding safety, PK and PD collection for both SAD and MAD are described in following sections and presented in tabular form in Tables 1-6.

Escalation and Stopping Rules

Determination of whether to escalate to the next dose level will be made by a Safety Review Committee (SRC), consisting of a Contractor-provided Independent Safety Monitor, the Principal Investigator, and the Sponsor-provided representative. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) will be defined as related serious adverse events and related Grade 3 or higher adverse events (grades will be determined using NCI-CTCAE). Blinded safety data will be reviewed for each cohort through the final scheduled visit (i.e. Day 8 for single ascending and Day 22 for multiple ascending). If a drug related DLT occurs, treatment assignment for that subject will be unblinded for the Independent Safety Monitor review. The stopping rules are occurrence of a DLT in ≥ 2 subjects receiving BPN-XXXXX. If the stopping rules are triggered, the Safety Committee may make one of the following recommendations: 1) declare the prior tolerated dose level as the maximal tolerated dose (MTD); 2) recommend testing of an intermediate dose level;

3) recommend protocol amendment to increase subject safety; 4) discontinue enrollment and/or the study.

The multiple ascending dose cohorts will start enrollment after completion of the last dose cohort in the single ascending dose portion. If MTD for single dose is below the highest planned dose level, the planned maximal dose for the multiple ascending portions will be adjusted accordingly.
