What is this offering?

This service supports the registration of studies on the ClinicalTrials.gov website (prioritizing NIH-defined clinical trials). ClinicalTrials.gov is a web-based resource that provides patients, health care professionals, researchers, and the public with easy access to information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies covering a wide range of diseases and conditions.

Our support includes:

  • Identification of registration and results reporting requirements and related deadlines.
  • Evaluation of the research protocol to facilitate efficient registration.
  • Assistance with establishing Protocol Registration and Results System (PRS) accounts.
  • Assistance with PRS login, navigation, and data entry activities.
  • Ensure informed consent document includes information required by ClinicalTrials.gov.
  • Entry of registration data into the PRS database.
  • Management of PRS queries that may occur during the registration and maintenance process.
  • Guidance regarding regulations and processes associated with annual and unscheduled updates.
  • Email reminders (for all projects registered by the MICHR ClinicalTrials.gov team) designed to ensure applicable ClinicalTrials.gov deadlines are met
  • Coordinated consultations with partner offices and others relevant to registration.
