Click Look Up and select the appropriate organization from the list of search results. If your trial’s affiliated organization is not listed, you can register it in the system at this point. To search for and register an organization, follow the instructions in Looking up Registered Organizations.

- If no one in your organization has site administrative (Admin) access, the My Account page displays a check box that enables you to request Admin privileges.
- If at least one other person in your organization currently has a Site Admin role, the system displays the View Admins link, which enables you to display the name(s) of the current Admin(s).
Request for Admin Access
This check box is displayed if no one in your organization has site administrative (admin) access. Optionally, to request administrative rights for your organization, select the check box.You will receive an email message from the CTRO once your request has been approved or rejected.
PRS Organization Name
Type the full name of the organization as it appears in the ClinicalTrials.gov Protocol Registration System account list at http://prsinfo.clinicaltrials.gov/prs_organizations.html.
Keep your account up to date
The PRS organization name is required for uploading trial records to ClinicalTrials.gov via a system-generated file. The PRS organization name you include in your profile is included in that file. This precludes having to update the PRS name in the file. Therefore it is very important for you to update your account whenever there is a change in PRS.
Receive Email Notifications The CTRP system can automatically send you an email message whenever some aspect of a trial you have submitted or own has changed. For example, the system would notify you when the CTRO has accepted a trial that you submitted. It would send another message when the Trial Summary Report (TSR) is available for review. You can choose to receive all messages or none of them: - To receive all system messages, set Receive Email Notifications to Yes.
- To opt out, set Receive Email Notifications to No.
