This 0925-0002 revision submission represents a collection of post-award reporting requirements previously collected under 0925-0002. Pre-award reporting requirements are simultaneously consolidated under 0925â0001 (expiration October 31, 2018) and the changes to the collection here are related. Clinical trials are complex and challenging research activities. Oversight systems and tools are critical for the NIH to ensure participant safety, data integrity, and accountability of the use of public funds. The NIH has been engaged in a multi-year effort to examine how clinical trials are supported and the level of oversight needed.
