Description
Acquisition Description:
This is a Notice of Intent, not a request for proposal. The National Institute of Health, Clinical Center (NIH-CC) intends to negotiate on an other than full and open competition basis with Sofie Co. (a.k.a. Sofie Biosciences Inc.).
The National Institute of Health, Clinical Center (NIH-CC)-s has the Nuclear Pharmacy (CC NP) department (collectively “Program”) that purchases and compounds radiopharmaceuticals (radioactive drugs) on a daily basis for life-saving clinical nuclear medicine procedures. This is essential for the NIH Clinical Center to achieve optimal patient care. These radiopharmaceuticals are United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drugs for use in patients. They are also radioactive materials that are regulated by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (US NRC) through the NIH radioactive material license (RAM) administered by the NIH Radiation Safety Office (RSO). Only RSO certified Nuclear Medicine personnel can order these radiopharmaceuticals directly for patient use. Each radiopharmaceutical is time sensitive because of the rapid radiation decay. Because of their short useful half-lives, they cannot be ordered in advance for storage. They must be properly compounded, dispensed, calibrated and delivered for a specific patient at a specific time on a specific date on a daily basis.
The purpose is to procure compounded piflufolasta F-18 in patient ready unit doses (UDs) from an authorized nuclear pharmacy (Sofie Nuclear Pharmacy) for the use by the NIH Nuclear Medicine, Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences to diagnose and treat diseases as required by necessary patient care protocols at the NIH Clinical Center. This new radioactive drug is vital to the NIH Clinical Center mission.
