Oncology:

Select the Program Area that best fits the scientific aims/science of the protocol of the study and mark it PRIMARY. Refer to list of Program Areas for program descriptions.

If more than one program aligns well with the study aims, add a second program. The program that best aligns with the study aims should be marked as PRIMARY. No more than two programs may be entered.

This field is manually reviewed at PC Signoff by the PRMC coordinator and by Clinical Research leadership as needed. Do not change Program Area(s) following PRMC approval without first consulting PRMC staff.

General guide for assigning Program Area(s):

• Therapeutic drug trials = DT
• Prevention drug/agent trials = CPC
• Imaging, radiopharmaceutical and radiation trials = IR
• Drug + Radiation trials = dependent upon experimental component(s) of trial
• Behavioral, epidemiological and most health services studies = CPC
• VR, TM, GEM = rare for interventional trials.

The planned column is marked 'N' when NCI has approved the program area and 'Y' indicates the program area is planned however has not yet been approved by the NCI. Never check this box.
