ClinicalTrials.gov and FDAAA for NIH Grantees
NIH Regional Seminar – October 2015
Rebecca J. Williams, Pharm.D., MPHAssistant Director, ClinicalTrials.govNational Library of Medicine
http://ClinicalTrials.gov
Overview
• Introduction to Section 801 of the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 (FDAAA)– Rationale– Requirements
• ClinicalTrials.gov Practical Considerations– FDAAA Next steps– Protocol Registration and Results System (PRS)– Resources
• NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Resources and Tips

Rationale for Trial Registration & Summary Results Reporting
Why Conduct Clinical Trials?
• To obtain new and generalizable knowledge• Key component of the body of scientific evidence
that is used to inform medical decision making
4
How It’s Supposed to Work

Clinical Trials
Informed Decisions

Meta-analyses
Guidelines
Three Key Issues
• Not all trials are published• Publications do not always include all pre-
specified outcome measures• Unacknowledged changes are made to the
trial protocol that would affect the interpretation of the findings– e.g., changes to the pre-specified outcome
measures

Summary of Findings
• Fewer than half of NIH funded trials registered at ClinicalTrials.gov after September 2005 and completed by December 2008 were published in a peer reviewed biomedical journal indexed by Medline within 30 months of trial completion
• After a median of 51 months after study completion, a third of NIH-funded trials in the sample remained unpublished
BMJ 2011;344:d7292 doi
Public Benefits of Access to Clinical Trial Data
• Meet ethical obligation to human subjects (i.e., that results will be used to help others/inform science)
• Inform future research and research funding decisions• Mitigate information bias (e.g., non publication)• Evaluate research integrity (e.g.,adherence to protocol)• Prevent duplication of trials of unsafe or ineffective interventions
• Provide access to data to support evidence-based medicine
• Enhance patient access to enrollment in clinical trials
All contribute to increased public trust in clinical research 10

FDAAA and Other Trial Disclosure Policies
Why Register and Report Results?
• Required by most medical journals (ICMJE*)– Registration for all clinical trials (all interventions)
• http://www.icmje.org/publishing_10register.html
• It is Federal law! (FDAAA 801**)– Registration & results submission for “applicable
clinical trials”• http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/manage-recs/fdaaa
• Encouraged for all NIH-supported trials– Registration & results submission, even if not subject
to FDAAA 801• http://grants.nih.gov/ClinicalTrials_fdaaa/
– New NIH Policy Proposal to make this *required*
* International Committee of Medical Journal Editors** Section 801 of the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007
14
Other reasons …
• Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requires NCT Number for coverage of routine costs of qualifying clinical trials
• U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) requires registration and results reporting of VA-funded clinical trials
• U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) requires results reporting in a peer-reviewed scientific journal or ClinicalTrials.gov
15https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/manage-recs/background#WhyRegister
And more reasons…
• European Union requires registration and results reporting of certain drug and biologic clinical trials
• Declaration of Helsinki states that all research studies involving human subjects must be registered & researchers have a responsibility to make research results publicly available
• World Health Organization (WHO) considers registration a “scientific, ethical and moral responsibility” and states that there is an ethical imperative to report results
• And others!!16

“Medical advances would not be possible without participants in clinical trials,” said NIH Director
Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D. “We owe it to every participant and the public at large to support the maximal use of this knowledge for the greatest
benefit to human health. This important commitment from researchers to research participants must
always be upheld.”http://www.nih.gov/news/health/nov2014/od-19.htm
NIH Policy ProposalGuide Notice: NOT-OD-15-019
• NIH-funded awardees & investigators conducting clinical trials, funded in whole or in part by NIH
• NIH-funded clinical trials must be registered and have summary results, including adverse event information, submitted to ClinicalTrials.gov– NIH revised definition of clinical trial (Oct 2014)
• Includes Phase 1, all intervention types (broader than “ACT”)
– Same type of registration and results data and in the same timeframes as the trials subject to FDAAA
• Comment period closed March 2015
18NIH Policy Proposal: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-15-019.html Revised NIH Definition of “Clinical Trial”: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-15-015.html

What does FDAAA 801 require?
The responsible party for an applicable clinical trial (ACT) subject to FDAAA must :1. Register the ACT in ClinicalTrials.gov no later than 21 days after enrollment of the first participant;
2. Update the ACT in ClinicalTrials.gov at least once every 12 months (Recruitment Status and Primary Completion Date within 30 days)
3. Submit summary results (including adverse event information) for certain trials not later than 1 year after the trial’s Primary Completion Date.
– Delays allowed in some circumstances20

NIH Certification of Compliance: RPPR
Section G. Special Reporting Requirements
G.4.c ClinicalTrials.gov
Does this project include one or more applicable clinical trials that must be registered in ClinicalTrials.gov under FDAAA?
Yes No
If yes, provide the ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier, NCT Number (e.g., NCT00654321) for those trials.
30
After the Trial “Completes”
• (NIH/FDA Certifications may still apply)• Definitions
– Primary Completion Date - PCD (FDAAA 801)• “The date that the final subject was examined or received an
intervention for the purposes of final collection of data for the primary outcome, whether the clinical trial concluded according to the prespecified protocol or was terminated.”
– Study Completion Date (last subject, last visit)• Final date on which data were collected
– See ClinicalTrials.gov Protocol Data Element Definitions: http://prsinfo.clinicaltrials.gov/definitions.html
31
After the Trial “Completes” (cont.)
• Submit Summary Results (FDAAA 801)– Which Trials?
• ACTs of FDA-approved or -cleared drugs, biologics, & devices;• Initiated on or after 9/27/07 or “ongoing” as of 12/26/07
– When to Submit? • < 1 year after PCD (or < 30 days of approval or clearance)• Delays possible
– Seeking approval of a new use (if Sponsor = manufacturer)– Extensions for “good cause”
» Pending publication is not considered “good cause”
ACT = applicable clinical trial
PCD = primary completion date 32
3333
After the Trial “Completes” (cont.)
• Submit Summary Results– Scientific Information (“per arm”)*
• Participant Flow• Baseline Characteristics• Primary and Secondary Outcome Measures
– Statistical analyses, as appropriate
• Adverse Events – Serious and “Other”
– Administrative Information• Results Point of Contact• Certain Agreements (related to investigator’s right to publish, if
not an employee of sponsor)
*ClinicalTrials.gov Results Data Element Definitions at http://prsinfo.clinicaltrials.gov/results_definitions.html 33
FDAAA Results Clarifications
• Summary results at the end of the trial– No interim or “real-time” reporting– No participant-level reporting
• Summary results submission not required for:– Registered non-ACTs (e.g., observational, Phase 1)– Trials completed by 12/26/07
• Relationship to publication (ICMJE)– Submitting summary results to ClinicalTrials.gov will not
interfere with publication*– (But, failing to register the trial will!)
*http://www.icmje.org/publishing_10register.html 34
FDAAA Enforcement Provisions
• Notices of non-compliance• Civil monetary penalties (up to
$10,000/day)• Withholding of NIH grant funds

NIH OER Resources and Tips
NIH OER Resources
“What NIH Grantees Need to Know about FDAAA”
http://grants.nih.gov/ClinicalTrials_fdaaa/
• Step-by-step guidance• Flowcharts for ascertaining ACTs and RP• “At-a-glance” requirements• FAQs for NIH Grantees
59
Tips: Take a Team Approach
• Be aware of your Institution’s approach/SOP
• Work as a team to identify ACTs and RPs– Sponsored research office, PI, Counsel– Work across institutions– Take actions early to clarify roles and responsibilities
• NIH’s role– Resources– Cannot make determinations or register/report results
on behalf of Grantee or RP
60http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-09-147.html
Tips: Plan Ahead
• Are the costs (including staff time) of … reporting … in ClinicalTrials.gov allowable charges on an NIH grant?– Given the nature of this requirement and that the project
staff will generally be in the best position to submit and maintain these data, the costs of FDAAA compliance will generally be allowable as direct charges to NIH supported grants. While it is expected that these costs will be covered by the funds provided with the grant, administrative supplements could also be considered.
61NIH Grants FAQs: http://grants.nih.gov/Clinicaltrials_fdaaa/faq.htm
Tips: Manage Risk Wisely
• Grantee Institutions as Sponsors– Do you have standard operating procedures?
• Including process for when key staff leave the institution
– Training– Monitor compliance
• How will you ensure trials are registered and results reported?• (Some institutions require NCT Number for IRB approval)
– Use personnel appropriately to fulfill FDAAA• Not necessary to have PI designated as RP in order for
him/her to enter data• Plan for registration and results reporting early in the trial
development process
– Implement appropriate record retention62
Tips: Understand FDAAA
• Responsible Party must register and submit results for applicable clinical trials (ACTs)– Informed Consent– Updates throughout trial lifecycle– Certifications of Compliance
• Be attentive to rulemaking– Proposed – Draft policy requiring all NIH clinical trial grantees to
register and report results published in NOT-OD-15-019• http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-15-019.html
63
Tips: Create culture of disclosure
• The NIH encourages registration and results reporting for all NIH-supported clinical trials, regardless of whether or not they are subject to FDAAA
• FDA Compliance Program 7348.810: Sponsors, Contract Research Organizations, and Monitors*– Instructs FDA staff to identify SOPs and determine if
studies were registered on ClinicalTrials.gov appropriately
