2 Title Request for Proposal (RFP) for the development of automated, fully integrated, point-of-care (POC) molecular diagnostic assay for hepatitis C (HCV) detection in resource-limited settings. Background FIND s HCV programme seeks to contribute to achieving the WHO targets for elimination of viral hepatitis. To this end, FIND is exploring new partnerships in the areas of Point-Of-Care (POC) testing for HCV to enable diagnosis and treatment scale-up. Separate RFPs will be issued to address individual diagnostic gaps. This RFP specifically focuses on developing an assay for detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA on a fully integrated cross-cutting platform that can be adapted for detecting multiple infectious diseases of interest to FIND s Global Health portfolio (TB, AMR, HIV, HBV). End goal would be to provide a comprehensive, sample in, clinically actionable results out integrated capability for use in Level 1 settings and would meet regulatory standards for approval by WHO and in targeted countries. The high-level product requirements for a POC virological test for HCV have been published in the form of a target product profile (TPP). A Product Requirements Document (PRD) that is specific for a POC HCV RNA test is included as an appendix to this RFP. Aim FIND invites developers that have a fully integrated cross-cutting POC molecular diagnostic platforms with the potential to meet the appended PRD to submit a proposal for the development of a virological molecular assay for HCV diagnosis. Relevant developers should have at least a working prototype of such a platform and have resources to complete its development and commercialization. FIND anticipates selecting 1- platforms for the feasibility evaluation stage, where the selected partner(s) will assess the feasibility of detecting HCV RNA on their platform (or prototype platform). This laboratory feasibility study will evaluate the analytical performance and operational characteristics of the diagnostic platform and the HCV RNA assay using clinical reference samples supplied by FIND. Results of the feasibility study will be assessed using pre-defined criteria and i
3 will inform a go/no-go decision for further investments in full scale assay development on one final selected platform. Objectives To develop and validate a test for HCV RNA detection on a low-cost, user-friendly, fully integrated cross-cutting POC platform that can be adapted for detecting multiple infectious diseases of interest to FIND s Global Health portfolio (TB, AMR, HIV, HBV). The objective of the feasibility study is to determine the platform and assay performance for the detection of HCV RNA. The following parameters will be evaluated: limit of detection, genotype inclusivity, clinical sensitivity and specificity using a reference panel of clinical specimens, time to test results. When relevant (i.e., if the platform employed in the feasibility study is in its final integrated form), operational characteristics such as ease of use and environmental requirements will also be assessed. Specific study end-points and success criteria will be defined and agreed upon by FIND and selected partners. Expected project duration The entire project, i.e. the feasibility and assay development is expected to last years. The expected duration of the feasibility study should be 4 months, which includes an initial assay development phase, followed by a performance evaluation study. We propose an upfront phone discussion in case of longer timelines. Specific timelines for further platform and assay development, and clinical evaluation will be discussed with the final selected partner after successful completion of the feasibility study. Study design Support provided The feasibility study is a laboratory study performed at the platform provider facilities using synthetic HCV RNA, HCV-positive and HCVnegative plasma specimens and spiked whole blood specimens. Specifics of the study plan will be jointly developed by FIND and the selected partner(s). For the feasibility study, FIND will provide: ii
4 1. Funding to cover the personnel and material expenses incurred by the developer for HCV RNA assay development (up to 150,000 US$).. Reference samples for assay development and the performance evaluation study.. Time and effort by FIND personnel and consultants as needed to support the study. This time includes technical assistance during the assay development in order to optimize and integrate plasma sample preparation. During the development phase FIND will provide further financial and technical support including funds for product development (up to M US$). If product development and validation is completed within years, FIND will design and conduct clinical trials in line with CE IVD/WHO PQ requirements. Specific levels of funding and levels of supports will be discussed at a later time. Success criteria Primary outcomes (Feasibility study) Secondary outcomes (Feasibility study) FIND has defined key platform and assay attributes that should serve as success criteria (Appendix I: PRD). Minimal and optimal requirements have been defined for each success criterion. Success criteria do not all have the same importance or prioritization. Key criteria with rating for prioritization (Appendix I) will be reviewed based on information submitted by the organization and must be addressed during the laboratory feasibility study. Demonstrated capability of assay and platform to meet the success criteria Selection of platform partners for the subsequent phases of the project, which include further product development and clinical evaluation Validated protocols for sample preparation that is integrated/has a high potential to be integrated to the platform A written report describing the methods employed and the results of the laboratory feasibility study The generated (raw and analysed) data from the evaluation of the platform for the detection and quantification of HCV RNA, based on the success criteria iii
5 Confidentiality Significance Expected proposal content Submission Deadline FIND considers any proposal received under the RFP as confidential. If required FIND can sign a Confidential Disclosure Agreement (CDA) with interested organizations prior to proposal submission. FIND will not disclose the proposal to third parties without the prior written agreement of the proposal submitter. The review of proposals will be carried out by a team comprising internal FIND experts and independent external experts. External reviewers are under confidentiality agreement and are recused if found to have a potential conflict of interest (which they are obliged to disclose). Any specific questions concerning confidentiality should be addressed to the FIND team. The availability of a POC test for HCV RNA would greatly simplify the algorithms for HCV diagnosis, catalysing an increase in diagnosis rates and treatment scale-up. This effort should ultimately contribute to the WHO targets on HCV for 00: 80% reduction in incidence, 65% reduction in mortality, and 80% of HCV+ individuals receiving treatment. Possibility to adapt the platform for diagnosis of other infectious diseases will allow to integrate HCV testing in other health services such as TB programmes, STI care, etc., and thereby expand access, enable demand aggregation and price reductions. Expected proposal content is described in Appendix III. Proposals in English are to be sent by to the project team (see contact details below). The deadline for full proposal reception is fixed as FRIDAY, MARCH 018 by CET. Selection process Proposals will be assessed and partners selected through a systematic process as described on the FIND website. The process is designed to be objective, independent, and transparent to ensure that the most suitable technologies are supported and potential conflicts of interest are avoided. Selection of partners for feasibility studies will be based on submitted data on analytical sensitivity and scoring of platform, assay and iv
6 organization-specific parameters with ranking as described in Appendix I and Appendix II. The project team will conduct site visits and/or phone discussions with shortlisted candidates. Evaluation of proposals will be conducted from 6 March until 17 April. If additional information or discussions are needed with any candidate during this window, the candidate(s) will be notified. FIND intends to select up to two candidate technologies for feasibility evaluation. This decision will be made no later than April 018. In parallel with the feasibility evaluation, in-depth due-diligence assessments of the partners will be conducted to inform down selection to one partner to take forward for full development. The assessment results along with feasibility data will be presented to the FIND SAC for final partner selection. This decision is expected to be completed before end of October 018. Contact FIND is available to further discuss this opportunity in a telephone conference and to answer questions via .
