Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: The Clinical Trials 
Reporting Program (CTRP) Database 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 Web site to 
complete the initial trial registration. Subsequent to registration, 
four amendments and four study subject accrual updates occur per trial 
annually.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The estimated annualized burden 
hours are 18,000.
