- PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE OF INTENT NON-COMPETITIVE SUBJECT Protein profiling of 40 CMD trial patient plasma REGULATORY AUTHORITY This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13�Simplified Acquisition Procedures, and the procedures prescribed in FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1), Soliciting from a single source. The resultant contract will include all applicable provisions and clauses of the FAR in effect through the Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2022-08, dated 10/28/2022.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is the nation�s leading medical research agency and the primary Federal agency whose mission is to seek fundamental knowledge about the nature and behavior of living systems and the application of that knowledge to enhance health, lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability, conducting, supporting and making medical discoveries that improve people�s health and save lives. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) is a part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which mission it is to seek fundamental knowledge about the brain and nervous system and to use that knowledge to reduce the burden of neurological disease for all people. The SNB investigators are conducting Cytokine Microdialysis clinical trial (18-N-0077) to investigate the changes in the immune microenvironment and systemic immune system in response to checkpoint inhibition in recurrent glioblastoma patients undergoing resection.The investigators have fully enrolled 10 patients into this pilot study, as per protocol, and they are now completing one of the protocol-required assays- protein profiling of circulating proteins in patient plasma. ANTICIPATED SOURCE Company Name � SomaLogic Operating Co. Company Address � 2945 Wilderness Place Boulder, CO 80301 UEI: CTK7E4CB43M7 Delivery Raw data consisting of the quantitative level of the proteins on the Somascan assay is to be sent to the SNB in digital format within 30 days of receipt of samples. PLACE OF PERFORMANCE N/A REASON FOR NON-COMPETITIVE ACTION The essential characteristics of the 40 plasma Somascan Discovery Assay that limit the availability to a sole source are that plasma protein profiling by SomaLogic is best for the total consistency of method and data analysis. CMD trial patients� CSF and Microdialysate samples are being profilied at CHI, NIAID with same SomaScan platform. Only this suggested source can furnish the requirements, to the exclusion of other sources, because of the reasons stated above.� The indicated protein profiling is proprietary technology of SomaLogic Operating Co. CLOSING STATEMENT This synopsis is not a request for competitive proposals.� All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, however, which shall be considered by the agency. �Responses to this notice must include clear and convincing evidence of the offeror�s capability of fulfilling the requirement.� In addition, the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and the certification of business size must be included in the response. �All offerors must have an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM).
