The U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) holds the National Cancer Institute (NCI), Division of Cancer
Treatment and Diagnosis/Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program
(NCI/DCTD/CTEP) and the Division of Cancer Prevention (DCP)
responsible, as a sponsor of investigational drug trials, for the
collection of information about the clinical investigators who
participate in these trials and to assure the FDA that systems for
accountability are being maintained by investigators in its
clinical trials program. The information collected is used to
identify qualified investigators and to facilitate the submission
and distribution of important information relative to the
investigational drug and the response of the patient to that drug.
Investigators are physicians who specialize in the treatment of
patients with cancer. Data obtained from the Drug Accountability
Record is used to track the dispensing of investigational
anticancer agents from receipt from the NCI to dispensing or
administration to patients. NCI and/or its auditors use this
information for compliance purposes.

This is a request for a program
change, considered a revision, which includes the logical
combination of previously two OMB submissions into one. The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) holds the National Cancer
Institute (NCI) responsible, as a sponsor of investigational drug
trials, for the collection of information about clinical
investigators who participate in trials and to assure the FDA that
systems for accountability are being maintained by investigators in
its clinical trials program. The increase in burden is primarily a
reflection of the combination of these two submissions. This
submission also includes the addition of the DCP information
collection for investigator registration and the electronic
mechanism for investigator registration information collection, NCI
OCR. Additionally, the burden has increased as a result of actively
accruing investigational studies and a greater number of patients
participating in studies.
