  1. If your organization currently submits subject accrual information for studies to CTEP or DCP via the OPEN system, continue to report subject accrual information via OPEN. The NCI will manage the transfer of subject accrual data for OPEN trials internally. Otherwise, submit your organization's subject accrual data to CTRP.
