    Need and Use of Information Collection: 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 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. The frequency of Response is 
up to 16 times per year. The affected public is private sector 
including businesses, other for-profit organizations, and non-profit 
institutions. The type of respondents are investigators, pharmacists, 
nurses, pharmacy technicians, and data managers.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 14,649 hours.
