Grant Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) requests applications for funding to develop and validate a reliable remote real-time cocaine monitoring system for use by clinical trials researchers testing cocaine dependence treatments. Applications proposing validation of the monitoring system that do not include validation of the monitoring system in cocaine dependent subjects will not be considered responsive to this FOA. Systems will leverage developments in behavioral and/or biometric sensing, mobile and wireless technology (e.g., mHealth) and real time data analysis to detect cocaine use in vivo. Completed systems will include hardware, software, storage and analysis solutions to provide for secure encrypted storage on devices, secure encrypted transmission to a database, and secure researcher interfaces from which data may be aggregated to plot and display data demonstrating clinically meaningful changes in cocaine consumption patterns by individual participants.
