SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interested
persons are invited to send comments
regarding this burden estimate or any
other aspect of this collection of
information, including any of the
following subjects: (1) The necessity and

SUMMARY:
the agency’s functions; (2) the accuracy
of the estimated burden; (3) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; and
(4) the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.
Title of the Collection: Research
Misconduct and Noncompliance in
Clinical Trials and Translational
Research.
Type of Collection: New.
OMB No.: 0990–XXXX.
Abstract: The Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) Office of
Research Integrity (ORI) has partnered
with the Office for Human Research
Protections (OHRP) to launch this data
collection effort to better understand
how to serve those who might benefit
from additional education and resources
to improve research integrity. ORI and
OHRP have found that researchers,
Institutional Review Board (IRB) Chairs,
Research Integrity Officers (RIOs),
Human Protections and Compliance
Officers, and Human Protections
Administrators, who oversee the
conduct of research involving human
research subjects, may struggle with
identifying reportable noncompliance or
unanticipated problems, protocol
violations, protocol deficiencies, and
falsifications and fabrications of data
and methods in that research. Failure to
recognize these concerns may result in
noncompliance, protocol violations and
research misconduct not being
adequately addressed; falsified and/or
fabricated methods, data, and results
that may be published or used to obtain
federal funding; human research
subjects being harmed; and/or Public
Health Service (PHS) funds not being
protected.
This data collection is a new request
and includes an online survey
instrument used with stakeholders
holding positions at institutions holding
a Federalwide Assurance (FWA) and/or
operating an IRB, and is designed to
identify barriers in the identification,
evaluation, and reporting of potential
research misconduct, protocol
violations, reportable noncompliance,
and unanticipated problems in research
that involves human subjects. This data
collection is intended to assist ORI and
OHRP in developing approaches to
improve how to identify and distinguish
incidents that are reportable to ORI and
OHRP from those that do not require
reporting to these offices. This
information is also intended to give
RIOs, IRBs, human protections
administrators, compliance officers, and
other institutional officials involved
with human subjects’ research insight
into how they can strengthen their
policies and procedures for identifying,
evaluating, and/or communicating
potential research misconduct and
reportable noncompliance and
unanticipated problems by identifying
gaps, barriers, and areas in which
communication and education may
need to be enhanced within their
institution.
