The CTRP system captures the trial data you submit, and from them generates two types of trial documents: a Trial Summary Report (TSR), formatted for user consumption; and an XML file formatted for upload to ClinicalTrials.gov. Both documents contain a subset of trial data elements captured in the CTRP. However, the TSR contains more elements than the XML because ClinicalTrials.gov-required fields are different from those in CTRP. Some data that appear in the TSR do not appear in the XML, and vice versa. The documents are described below.
Trial Summary Report (TSR) – Report that presents a summary of key abstracted data from the trial you registered, in an easy-to-read format. The CTRP system sends the TSR as an attachment in an email to the trial submitter/owner with instructions to review the TSR for accuracy and to report any changes to the CTRO staff.
When a trial has been amended, the system sends a modified TSR to the submitter that reflects the changes.
- XML File – File that contains abstracted data in the format suitable for submission to ClinicalTrials.gov. This document is sent only to trial submitters/owners who indicated that an XML file is required for submission to ClinicalTrials.gov when they registered the trial.
The following sections compare the TSR data elements with those in the XML.
