SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on July 12, 2024 (89 FR 57157) and allowed 60 days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health, may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information collection listed below.
Proposed Collection: Investigational Agent Accountability Record Forms and International Investigator Statement in the Conduct of Investigational Trials for the Treatment of Cancer (National Cancer Institute), 0925-0613, Expiration Date 1/31/2025, REVISION, National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires Investigational New Drug Application (IND) sponsors to maintain adequate records on the shipment and disposition of agents to investigators. The agent accountability effort for the National Cancer Institute/Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis/Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (NCI/DCTD/CTEP) is managed by the Pharmaceutical Management Branch (PMB) at CTEP. The Investigational Agent Accountability Records (a.k.a. Drug Accountability Record Forms—DARF) are used to provide a standardized method of tracking agent disposition across all institutions participating in trials for which the NCI provides agents. Institutional auditors verify information on the agent accountability forms for compliance. In addition, PMB staff review Investigational Agent Accountability Record Forms against records maintained in PMB systems to ensure there is no inappropriate use or diversion of investigational agents.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. Respondents' only cost is their time. The total estimated annualized burden is 4,166 hours.
