PART 4: Appendices Section II – Required Tables for New/Competing & Non-Competing Applications II. Suggested Formats - Tables for New & Non-Competing Applications Current and/or relevant information in the past 5-6 years should be used in the tables unless otherwise indicated. Suggested reporting period over past 5-6 years for all tables requested for the application, unless otherwise indicated, is January 1, 2007 thru June 30, 2012. A. Network Group Operations Centers & Canadian Collaborating Network List of Tables with Suggested Formats Network Group Operations Center applicants should include key leadership, scientific achievements, accrual, and other information (e.g., operational efficiency timelines) from participation in the former NCI-sponsored Cooperative Group Clinical Trials Program. Only if the applicant did not participate in the former NCI-sponsored Cooperative Group Program should the applicant provide accrual and other information from cancer clinical treatment trials supported by an equivalent non-profit, late-phase (primarily phase 3) clinical trials network organization that conducts oncology treatment trials (not industry, investigator-initiated, or early phase trials). Accrual tables are for cancer treatment trials only; if applicant wishes to emphasize significant past accrual on primary advanced imaging studies under the NCI Cooperative Group Program funded by NCI Division of Cancer Treatment & Diagnosis (DCTD) or equivalent system for applicants who did not participate in the NCI Cooperative Group Program, that information can be presented in the text of Research Plan under “Member Site Accrual Program.” Leadership, scientific achievement, and other information from DCTD-sponsored Cooperative Group primary advanced imaging studies can be included in the appropriate non-accrual tables with achievements from treatment trials. Canadian Collaborating Clinical Trial Network applicants can also include 1 separate accrual table (modified Table 7) to show treatment trial accrual for trials they lead for their own organization to highlight their potential for accrual across a range of diseases; however, this table must be clearly labeled as accrual distinct from the accrual tables on their past participation in NCI Cooperative Group Program. Table 1. Key Leadership Staffing of Network Group As of Date Application Preparation: MM/DD/YYYY This table should reflect current positions in the Network Group held by investigators with institutional affiliation as of date this table was prepared for inclusion in application. Please Note: For key positions by Network Group investigators in NCI Scientific Steering Committees, task forces & working Groups, NCI CIRBs, etc., that information should be provided in the text of the “Program for Collaboration & Participation in Collective Management” of Research Plan for Operations Center (see page 111 on research plan & page 160 on review criteria) & Canadian Collaborating Network applications (see page 148 research plan & page 182 review criteria).

A. <strong>Network</strong> Group Operations Centers & Canadian Collaborating <strong>Network</strong> List of Tables with Suggested Formats<br />

<strong>Network</strong> Group Operations Center applicants should include key leadership, scientific achievements, accrual, and other information (e.g.,<br />

operational efficiency timelines) from participation in the former <strong>NCI</strong>-sponsored Cooperative Group <strong>Clinical</strong> <strong>Trials</strong> <strong>Program</strong>. Only if the<br />

applicant did not participate in the former <strong>NCI</strong>-sponsored Cooperative Group <strong>Program</strong> should the applicant provide accrual and other<br />

information from cancer clinical treatment trials supported by an equivalent non-profit, late-phase (primarily phase 3) clinical trials<br />

network organization that conducts oncology treatment trials (not industry, investigator-initiated, or early phase trials). Accrual tables<br />

the <strong>NCI</strong> Cooperative Group <strong>Program</strong> funded by <strong>NCI</strong> Division of Cancer Treatment & Diagnosis (DCTD) or equivalent system for applicants<br />

who did not participate in the <strong>NCI</strong> Cooperative Group <strong>Program</strong>, that information can be presented in the text of Research Plan under<br />

“Member Site Accrual <strong>Program</strong>.” Leadership, scientific achievement, and other information from DCTD-sponsored Cooperative Group<br />

primary advanced imaging studies can be included in the appropriate non-accrual tables with achievements from treatment trials.<br />

Canadian Collaborating <strong>Clinical</strong> Trial <strong>Network</strong> applicants can also include 1 separate accrual table (modified Table 7) to show treatment<br />

trial accrual for trials they lead for their own organization to highlight their potential for accrual across a range of diseases; however, this<br />

table must be clearly labeled as accrual distinct from the accrual tables on their past participation in <strong>NCI</strong> Cooperative Group <strong>Program</strong>.<br />

Table 1. Key Leadership Staffing of <strong>Network</strong> Group As of Date Application Preparation: MM/DD/YYYY<br />

This table should reflect current positions in the <strong>Network</strong> Group held by investigators with institutional affiliation as of date this table was<br />

prepared for inclusion in application. Please Note: For key positions by <strong>Network</strong> Group investigators in <strong>NCI</strong> Scientific Steering Committees,<br />

task forces & working Groups, <strong>NCI</strong> CIRBs, etc., that information should be provided in the text of the “<strong>Program</strong> for Collaboration &<br />

Participation in Collective Management” of Research Plan for Operations Center (see page 111 on research plan & page 160 on review<br />

criteria) & Canadian Collaborating <strong>Network</strong> applications (see page 148 research plan & page 182 review criteria).<br />
