Footnote

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

See Requesting Permission to Submit Accrual Data .
Study subject records include demographic data as well as the disease name.

How to Add Study Subject Records

  • Select the trial you want to work with by following instructions in Selecting Listed Trials in Accrual or Searching for Trials in Accrual , and clicking the corresponding NCI Trial Identifier link.
