  The CTRP Development Team Wiki

  Welcome to the CTRP Development Team Wiki site. The purpose of this site is to provide up-to-date information on the development of the applications, tools, and services supporting the CTRP program.

  About CTRP

  NCI's Clinical Trials Reporting Program (CTRP) fulfills a recommendation made by the NCI Clinical Trials Working Group (CTWG) to the National Cancer Advisory Board. The purpose of the program is to establish a comprehensive database containing regularly updated information on all NCI-funded clinical trials. Grantees will enter specific information about each clinical trial into the database. NCI will internally transfer to CTRP information on CTEP, CCR and DCP trials, eliminating the need for awardees to enter information on these trials. NCI will use this information to coordinate research efforts to optimize our nation's investment in cancer research. NCI initiated a phased launch of CTRP, which started January 2009 with a focus on registering interventional trials only. The registration of observational, ancillary and correlative studies will begin at a later date.

  For further information about CTRP, please visit the NCI's CTRP Website.

  Project Planning and Management

  We engage in Agile project development, where we focus on time-boxed iterations that result in a deployable, testable application at the end of each iteration. As part of the iterative development, we actively engage with stakeholders on a regular basis.

  The project management plan, communications plan, risk management plan, and project schedule are available in the CTRP source control repository. To view or download a copy of any of these documents, please go to the following location: project management
