New this year at the CCTG Spring Meeting is an open workshop and education session on engaging patient representatives in CCTG clinical trials. This accredited workshop takes place on Friday 28 at 10:30 in the Wren room at the Chelsea Hotel.
Participants are invited to discuss and assess the Investigator and Patient perspective in patient-centred clinical trials. There will be an exploration of the CCTG Patient Engagement Model and an assessment of the clinical trial lifecycle identifying touch points to engage patients.
To ensure the security and safety of National Cancer Institute (NCI) systems, subjects, research staff, and all associated sensitive information, NCI introduced an identity verification system to access to the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP) and the Cancer Trails Support Unit (CTSU) websites in accordance with the Federal Information Security Management Act(FISMA) in July 2022. This new process uses ID.me, and requires completion of Identity Proofing (IP) and establishment of a Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) method as part of the registration process.
