This 0925-0002 revision submission
represents a collection of post-award reporting requirements
previously collected under 0925-0002. Pre-award reporting
requirements are simultaneously consolidated under 0925–0001
(expiration October 31, 2018) and the changes to the collection
here are related. Clinical trials are complex and challenging
research activities. Oversight systems and tools are critical for
the NIH to ensure participant safety, data integrity, and
accountability of the use of public funds. The NIH has been engaged
in a multi-year effort to examine how clinical trials are supported
and the level of oversight needed.
