ClinicalTrials.gov Registration

To register your study on ClinicalTrials.gov:

    1. Request the creation of a user account for the ClinicalTrials.gov Protocol Registration and Results System (PRS) by emailing Ellen Ciesielski, UConn/UConn Health’s ClinicalTrials.gov Administrator.
      • A record can have only one “Owner” who may be the Principal Investigator (PI) or may be someone designated by the PI to create/update the record on his/her behalf. The PI will always log in to perform the final review and approval of the record and each subsequent update.
    2. Receive your username and a temporary password by automated email from the PRS System.
    3. Go to the Clinicaltrials.gov Registration log-in page to enter your username, password and Organization. If you are a UConn Health investigator, in the Organization field, enter “UConnHealth” (no spaces). If you are a UConn Storrs or Regional Campus investigator, in the Organization field, enter “UConn.”
    4. On the Main Menu page, under “Records” click on “New Record” from the drop down menu. The system will walk you through the creation of your record, section by section. On each page, select “Continue” to save data entered and proceed to the next page. On any page, select “Quit” to stop entering data. Data entered on previous pages will be retained so that you can return to complete the record at a later date.
