The Clinical Trials Reporting Program
(CTRP) is an electronic resource that serves as a single,
definitive source of information about all NCI-supported clinical
research. This resource allows the NCI to consolidate reporting,
aggregate information and reduce redundant submissions. Information
is submitted by clinical research administrators as designees of
clinical investigators who conduct NCI-supported clinical research.
The designees can electronically access the CTRP website to
complete the initial trial registration for each protocol.
Subsequent to registration, up to four amendments and four study
subject accrual updates occur per protocol annually.
This application seeks a
reinstatement with change for an additional 3 more years. Changes
to the program have focused on improving system performance,
reporting capability to support NCI information needs, and user
interface enhancements. There are no changes to the information
collected and no new data elements have been added. A decrease in
the burden hours is being requested compared to the previous
submission. In the previous submission, initial registration was
estimated to take respondents up to 2 hours to complete. However
after several years of analysis, it is apparent that the average
time to complete the initial registration ranges from 45 to 60
minutes, rarely exceeding 1 hour to complete. Thus the estimated
time to complete the initial registration has been decreased from
11,000 hours to 5,500 hours/year, which has decreased the total
burden being requested from 38,500 to 33,000 hours/year.
