Section C - Descriptions and Specifications

DESCRIPTION OF RESEARCH

Cleveland BioLabs, Inc. (CBLI) research involves the continued preclinical development of entolimod (CBLB502) as a medical radiation countermeasure (MRC) for reducing the risk of death following total body irradiation, a cause of Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS). There is currently no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved medical countermeasure to treat ARS. Entolimod is a novel clinical stage drug candidate moving towards FDA approval as a safe and effective treatment for ARS. The work under the Joint Warfighter Medical Research Program will include: [***]. CBLI is the overarching sponsor for regulatory applications including FDA applications to include Investigational New Drug (IND), Biologics License Application (BLA), and/or Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). CBLI has obtained FDA IND for entolimod under IND 100,480. The proposed studies under this SOW will provide additional data for FDA review, and as part of CBLI’s path toward submitting a BLA for FDA approval of entolimod for ARS (for both the frozen liquid formulation and lyophilized formulation). The SOW is incorporated herein and attached at Section J.

• What was accomplished under these goals?

• What opportunities for training and professional development did the project provide?

• How were the results disseminated to communities of interest?

• What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals and objectives?

What were the major goals of the project?

List the major goals of the project as stated in the approved SOW. If the application listed milestones/target dates for important activities or phases of the project, identify these dates and show actual completion dates or the percentage of completion.

Generally, the goals will not change from one reporting period to the next and are unlikely to change during the final reporting period. However, if the awarding agency approved changes to the goals during the reporting period, list the revised goals and objectives. Also explain any significant changes in approach or methods from the agency approved application or plan.

What was accomplished under these goals?

For this reporting period describe: 1) major activities; 2) specific objectives; 3) significant results or key outcomes, including major findings, developments, or conclusions (both positive and negative); and/or 4) other achievements. Include a discussion of stated goals not met. Description shall include pertinent data and graphs in sufficient detail to explain any significant results achieved. A succinct description of the methodology used shall be provided. As the project progresses to completion, the emphasis in reporting in this section should shift from reporting activities to reporting accomplishments.

What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?

If the project was not intended to provide training and professional development opportunities or there is nothing significant to report during this reporting period, state “Nothing to Report.”

W81XWH-15-C-0101

Page 14 of 32

Describe opportunities for training and professional development provided to anyone who worked on the project or anyone who was involved in the activities supported by the project. “Training” activities are those in which individuals with advanced professional skills and experience assist others in attaining greater proficiency. Training activities may include, for example, courses or one-on-one work with a mentor. “Professional development” activities result in increased knowledge or skill in one’s area of expertise and may include workshops, conferences, seminars, study groups, and individual study. Include participation in conferences, workshops, and seminars not listed under major activities.

How were the results disseminated to communities of interest?

If there is nothing significant to report during this reporting period, state “Nothing to Report.”

Describe how the results were disseminated to communities of interest. Include any outreach activities that were undertaken to reach members of communities who are not usually aware of these project activities, for the purpose of enhancing public understanding and increasing interest in learning and careers in science, technology, and the humanities.

What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?

If this is the final report, state “Nothing to Report.”

Describe briefly what you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals and objectives.

4. IMPACT: This component is used to describe ways in which the work, findings, and specific products of the project have had an impact during this reporting period. Describe distinctive contributions, major accomplishments, innovations, successes, or any change in practice or behavior that has come about as a result of the project relative to:

• the development of the principal discipline(s) of the project;

Summarize using language that an intelligent lay audience can understand (Scientific American style).

How the field or discipline is defined is not as important as covering the impact the work has had on knowledge and technique. Make the best distinction possible, for example, by using a “field” or “discipline,” if appropriate, that corresponds with a single academic department (i.e., physics rather than nuclear physics).

What was the impact on other disciplines?

If there is nothing significant to report during this reporting period, state “Nothing to Report.”

Describe how the findings, results, or techniques that were developed or improved, or other products from the project made an impact or are likely to make an impact on other disciplines.

W81XWH-15-C-0101

Page 15 of 32

What was the impact on technology transfer?

Section G - Contract Administration Data

CPARS

Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) (USAMRAA) (May 2015)

A CPAR assesses a contractor’s performance and provides a record, both positive and negative, on a given contractor during a specific period of time. Each assessment is based on objective facts and supported by program and contract management data, such as cost performance reports, customer comments, quality reviews, technical interchange meetings, financial solvency assessments, construction/production management reviews, contractor operations reviews, functional performance evaluations, and earned contract incentives. Performance evaluations are transmitted into the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) which is used by government agencies to assess contractor past performance for future acquisitions. The contractor shall appoint a Contractor Representative (CR) and provide this information to the Contracting Officer (KO) within 10 calendar days of award. The contractor POC shall have the authority to comment on the CPAR assessment on behalf of their company and within the timeframes established.

A CPARS assessment must be completed within 120 calendar days after the evaluation. Evaluations are sent to PPIRS within 14 calendar days after the government Assessing Official (AO) has submitted the rating. If the CR has not concurred/non-concurred with the rating; PPIRS will show the government evaluation as “Contractor Comment Pending Review”. The CR has a total of 60 calendar days to concur/non-concur with the assessment. After 60 days is the contractor, the CR can either concur/non-concur The CR has the authority to: access the Government evaluation; review/comment/concur or non-concur with the assessment. The CR has 60 calendar days after notification of the government’s assessment to review/comment/concur or non-concur. The CR has the right to schedule a meeting (in writing) with the government within 7 calendar days of notification of an assessment. Once the government and the CR complete the evaluation; an automatic update will be sent to PPIRS and visible for Source Selection. If the CR fails to respond within 60 days, the assessment will be finalized. Training for CPARS can be found on the CPARS website: https://www.cpars.gov/index.htm.

To access CPARS, the contractor must have a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). It is suggested an ECA certificate of Medium Assurance should be purchased. This should be a Department of Defense identity certificate, not an e-mail certificate.
