Clinical Trials Working Group (CTWG)

The Clinical Trials Working Group (CTWG), which made 22 recommendations to the National Cancer Advisory Board in 2005 to revamp the NCI's cancer clinical trials system, spawned a new NCI organizational structure designed to oversee the institute's entire clinical trials enterprise.
