Participant-level Data Template

Additional Information: [SPA News] FW: eRA Information: Changes in HSS Post-Submission Updates with FORMS-F Starting June 13; NIH sent this announcement yesterday after they had already made the changes in their Human Subjects System (HSS). Please see below, it outlines the changes made to the HSS and its integration with the updated FORMS-F PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Form. [brought to our attention by] Stephanie Scott ; eRA Information: Changes in HSS Post-Submission Updates with FORMS-F Starting June 13; eRA Information: Changes in HSS Post-Submission Updates with FORMS-F Starting June 13; Monday, June 15, 2020; As of Saturday, June 13, 2020, all applicants and recipients submitting post-submission updates in the Human Subjects System (HSS) will use the updated FORMS-F PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information Form.  These updates address new requirements for participant-level data on sex/gender, race, ethnicity, and age at enrollment for projects subject to the NIH Policy and Guidelines on the Inclusion of Individuals Across the Lifespan as Participants in Research Involving Human Subjects. ; Users with records currently in progress will need to modify the records to meet new FORMS-F requirements.; The changes listed below include items released by eRA in March and items released on June 13.; Key FORMS-F Changes to the PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information Form; [*] A new Inclusion Enrollment Report title field is now available. The human subjects study title will appear by default for all existing studies and may be changed by the user. For new studies and those with a work in progress study, the title will be blank and need to be filled by the grantee. See Figure 1.; Figure 1: Inclusion Enrollment Report Title Field; [*] For clinical trials, the “Brief Summary” field will no longer appear in Section 4. Information in this field prior to June 13, 2020 will continue to be available in the PDF images of applications and Research Performance Progress Reports (RPPRs) submitted prior to this change.; [*] Question 1.4.a. “Does the study involve human subjects/participants” now has a default value of yes and cannot be changed unless the user changes their response to the question “Are Human Subjects Involved?” on the Other Projects Information form. As a study record should be completed only for research involving human participants, the “No” option is no longer available for this question. See Figure 2.; Figure 2: Question 1.4.a of the Clinical Trial Post Submission Study Record; [*] In Section 2.8 of the Study Record: PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information screen, the language has been changed from ‘Enrollment of First Subject’ to ‘Enrollment of First Participant.’;  [*] A new question has been added to the Study Record: PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information screen — Section 4.6 asks ‘Is this an applicable clinical trial under FDAAA.’; [*] For a full list of significant FORMS-F changes, see the High-level Grant Application Form Change Summary: FORMS-F PDF.; Key Inclusion Across the Lifespan Changes; [*] Recipients reporting actual enrollment progress for a grant application submitted for due dates January 25, 2019 or later must provide participant-level data on sex/gender, race, ethnicity, and age at enrollment in the Inclusion Enrollment Report of the PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information Form using HSS.; [*] Users must use the spreadsheet template available in HSS to submit participant-level data. The column titles must not be altered, and data should be provided using the values modeled in the template. Changes to the template may result in a submission error. See Figure 3.; Figure 3: Download Participant Level Data Template button on the Inclusion Enrollment Report; [*] Participant-level data must be uploaded in .csv format. Users do not need to separately enter the individual numerical fields in the Actual (Cumulative) Inclusion Enrollment Report table once the .csv file is successfully uploaded. The data provided will populate the actual (cumulative) enrollment table within the system. See Figure 4.; Figure 4: Upload Participant Level Data Attachment button on the Inclusion Enrollment Report; [*] For more information on the requirement of individual-level participant data on sex/gender, race, ethnicity, and age at enrollment in progress reports for research supported by NIH projects, please see NOT-OD-18-116.; For more information, see: [*] Entering Inclusion Data Using the Participant Level Data Template (video and transcript); Participant-level Data Template ; [*] The eRA Human Subjects System (HSS) information page ; [*] Information about the PHS Human Subjects and Clinical Trials Information form ; electronic Research Administration (eRA); NIH Office of Extramural Research; Questions? Please contact the eRA Service Desk.

Additional Information: Data Tables for training grants; NIH just posted the latest Data Tables for FORMS-F required institutional training grant proposals. These tables will be required for applications due May 25th, 2020 or later. Go to: https://grants.nih.gov/grants/forms-f/data-tables.htm ; They did not post a significant changes document yet, so I took the instructions from the previous tables and did a comparison to the new tables. See attached “Changes from FORMS-E to FORMS-F”.; I have an email to NIH to clarify the significant changes, and any impact they may have in xTRACT. Upon first glance, the changes appear to be more of clarifications of the instructions, rather than anything drastically different.; I know a number of you are preparing training grant proposals for May. Please feel free to take a look at these changes, and let me know if you have questions. This way I can collect them all and send them to NIH for clarification. As every training grant program is different, you may also need to go to your Program Officials for direction on how they want the table completed for your specific set of circumstances.; As soon as I have more information from NIH I will pass it along.; [brought to our attention by] Stephanie F.
