Tuberculous Mycobacterium (NTM)

Drug Susceptibility Testing (0920–

0600)—Extension—National Center for

Health Marketing (NCHM), Coordinating

Center for Health Information and

Service (CoCHIS), Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

As part of the continuing effort to

support both domestic and global public

health objectives for treatment of

tuberculosis (TB), prevention of multi-

drug resistance and surveillance

programs, the Division of Laboratory

Systems seeks to continue to collect

information from domestic private

clinical and public health laboratories

twice per year. Participation and

information collections from

international laboratories are limited to

those which have public health

responsibilities for tuberculosis drug

susceptibility testing and approval by

their national tuberculosis program.

While the overall number of cases of TB

in the U.S. has decreased, rates still

remain high among foreign-born

persons, prisoners, homeless

populations, and individuals infected

with HIV in major metropolitan areas.

The rate of TB cases detected in foreign-

born persons has been reported to be

almost nine times higher than the rate

among the U.S. born population.

CDC’s goal to eliminate TB will be

virtually impossible without

considerable effort in assisting countries

with heavy disease burden in the

reduction of tuberculosis. The

M.tuberculosis/NTM program supports

this role by monitoring the level of

performance and practices among

laboratories performing M. tuberculosis

susceptibility within the U.S, as well as

internationally, to ensure high-quality

laboratory testing, resulting in accurate

and reliable results.

Information collected in this program

includes the susceptibility test results of

primary and secondary drugs,

concentrations, and test methods

performed by laboratories on a set of

challenge isolates sent twice yearly. A

portion of the response instrument

collects demographic data such as

laboratory type and the number of tests

performed annually. By providing an

evaluation program to assess the ability

of the laboratories to test for drug

resistant M. tuberculosis and selected

strains of NTM, laboratories have a self-

assessment tool to aid in maximizing

their skills in susceptibility testing.

Information obtained from laboratories

on susceptibility testing practices and

procedures assists with determining

variables related to good performance,

with assessing areas for training and

with developing practice standards.

There are no cost to the respondents

other than their time.

Proposed Project

National Program of Cancer

Registries—Cancer Surveillance

System—Extension (OMB number

0920–0469)—National Center for

Chronic Disease Prevention and Health

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

The American Cancer Society

estimated that about 1.37 million

Americans were newly diagnosed with

cancer in 2005 and that about 570,000

died from cancer in that same year. The

National Institutes of Health estimates

that in 2005, the cost of cancer was

about $209 billion, including $74 billion

direct costs to treat cancer, and $136

billion indirect costs in lost productivity

due to illness and premature death.

In 2002, CDC implemented the

National Program of Cancer Registries

(NPCR)—Cancer Surveillance System

(CSS) to collect, evaluate and

disseminate cancer incidence data

collected by population-based cancer

registries. In 2002, CDC began annually

publishing United States Cancer

Statistics (USCS). The latest USCS

report published in 2005 provided

cancer statistics for 93% of the United

States population from all cancer

registries whose data met national data

standards. Prior to the publication of

USCS, at the national level, cancer

incidence data were available for only

14% of the population of the United

States.

With this expanded coverage of the

U.S. population, it will now be possible
