## Abstract

CLINICAL PROTOCOL AND DATA MANAGEMENT – PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT
The Cancer Center has a vibrant and effective Clinical Protocol and Data Management infrastructure,
composed of the following key elements:
1. An oversight committee, the Clinical Trials Advancement Committee (CTAC), provides central oversight
 for all cancer-related clinical research.
2. A central office, the Office of Clinical Research (OCR), that provides support through:
 • Protocol Development Team for trial development and protocol writing of investigator initiated trials
 • Activation of new and maintenance of previously opened trials through regulatory submissions,
 budget development, and invoicing of co-operative group and industrial trials
 • Clinical research coordination and data management
 • Subject recruitment
 • NCI administrative functions
3. Disease-specific research teams that are involved in trial development, selection, prioritization, and
implementation.
4. A Research and Clinical Trial Analytics support team that maintains a central location for cancer
 protocols, protocol-specific data, and protocol status.
5. The Clinical Research Optimization Committee (CROC) that facilitates the alignment of oncology
 clinical research and Health System operations. The committee helps develop processes and reviews
 infrastructure needed to support growth in oncology clinical trials.
6. Complex Trial Committee (CTC) that is responsible for reviewing any complex trials that may stress the
 clinical and research infrastructure or have special considerations.
7. Ancillary services (Investigational Drug Services Pharmacy (IDS Pharmacy), Emily Couric Clinical
 Cancer Center (ECCCC) Nurse Liaison, Biorepository and Tissue Research Facility (BTRF)) that
 facilitate initiation and conduct of trials.
8. UVACC Clinical Research Orientation, Training, and Quality Assurance Program that provides
 education, training, and quality assurance to oncology clinical research personnel
Over the past five years, the UVACC has made great progress in accrual to both interventional and therapeutic
trials. Between FY16 and FY20; the increase to interventional trials was 293% (including an increase of 494%
to investigator-initiated interventional trials), and accrual to treatment trials increased 15%.
