The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) is offering this grant to establish a dedicated Data Coordinating Center (DCC) for the Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Biomarkers Consortium (CKD BioCon). The CKD BioCon, established in 2009, focuses on developing, validating, and qualifying CKD biomarkers from existing biosamples of patients with longitudinal follow-up. Comprising six Participating Centers, the consortium requires specialized coordination. While a subcontracted group provides logistical support, it lacks the advanced expertise for managing multicenter studies and performing complex statistical analyses. This grant aims to secure a qualified entity to provide essential data coordination and sophisticated analytical support, crucial for advancing the consortium’s research and achieving its biomarker development goals.

| Description: | The Chronic Kidney Disease Biomarkers Consortium [CKD BioCon] was established in September 2009 as a result of RFA-DK-08-015 [Chronic Kidney Disease Biomarker Discovery and Validation Consortium (U01)] to develop, validate and qualify biomarkers based on existing biosamples from well-characterized CKD patients with longitudinal follow-up. The CKD BioCon consists of six Participating Centers (PCs) and is actively engaged in multiple research protocols.
The initial Funding Opportunity Announcement to establish the Consortium did not provide for a Data Coordinating Center (DCC). Given the complexity of the work to be performed by the consortium, a study coordination group was established through a subcontract to one of the PCs to provide logistical support and coordination of consortial meetings. However, the expertise needed to coordinate multicenter studies and perform advanced statistical analyses is limited. |
