SCOR Registrations

NCTN registrations are thru OPEN

Credits for protocols should be given to the research base coordinating the

studies

Examples

• Alliance (composed of CALGB, NCCTG, and ACOSOG legacy studies) registrations must be credited to Alliance

• NRG (composed of NSABP, RTOG, and GOG legacy studies) registrations must be credited to NRG

• SWOG registrations must be credited to SWOG

Other Registrations

Registrations done through OPEN for ECOG-ACRIN or NCIC-CTG studies may be credited to

one of the following research bases:Alliance

NRGSWOG

NCORP Funding Application

• 34 Community Sites– 11 were designated as “Enhanced” CCDR sites– SCOR was honored to be one of the Enhanced

Sites with 2 communities participating initially • Spartanburg, SC – Jay Bearden, MD and Lucy Gansauer• Winston-Salem, NC- Judy Hopkins, MD and Dena Webb

• 12 Minority/Underserved Community Sites– 2 were designated as Enhanced CCDR sites

NCORP Funding

• Received – $2.68 million for clinical trials

44% decrease of proposed budget– $300,000 for Cancer Care Delivery Research

This is a fully funded amount since we are a designated “Enhanced” Community Site

– Supplemental funding of $150,000 (equal to 50 credits) will be released when exceed 615 quota

Effective August 1, 2014New Credit System will apply to

reimbursements

SCOR Funding and Credits

NCTN Per Case Management Funding and NCORP

Crediting Information for Sites

Funding in the NCTN• NCI per case management funds are provided to all

NCTN sites enrolling patients onto NCTN trials via NCI funding mechanism:

DCP NCORP Grant (reflected as credits)

• Non-NCI funding (e.g. industry funding or Foundation) obtained by the Network Groups to supplement trial support is dispersed to sites by the Lead Protocol Organization (LPO). No CTSU or OPEN steps are needed to trigger these funds.

Accrual Requirement

Due to increased credit assignment of 1.6 for the majority of clinical trials, there will be no

individual MD accrual requirement. Community accrual will be assessed on a

quarterly basis. Leadership will communicate with communities having no accruals to

determine issues being faced and ways to increase accruals.

NCI National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN)There is a total of 5 NCTN groups:

4 Adult Groups (legacy cooperative groups - some merged)• Alliance (ACOSOG, CALGB, and NCCTG)• EGOG - ACRIN (ECOG and ACRIN)• NRG (NSABP, RTOG, and GOG)• SWOG (remained solo)1 Pediatric Group• Children’s Oncology Group (COG)

NCI Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP)

Total of 7 NCORP Research Bases• Alliance• ECOG-ACRIN• NRG• SWOG• COG• WF• URCC

Performance Site Codes

• Also referred to as NCI CTEP institutional codes• Site code designated at registration is the location

where the majority of patient assessment (MD visits) for the research study is done. Treatment and/or consenting may be done at another location.
