What changed

The National Cancer Institute is requesting a 30-day public comment period for the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Submission Request Form, OMB Control No. 0925-0752, expiring 04/30/2026. This information collection extension supports the GDC mission by providing investigators a mechanism to submit cancer genomic data for review by the GDC Data Submission Review Committee. The form collects information about investigators and studies seeking to submit data to the GDC. No public comments were received on the prior 60-day notice published February 2, 2026.\n\nRegulated entities and researchers wishing to comment must submit feedback by May 1, 2026 via www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain or contact Melissa Park at NCI. The extension does not impose new substantive requirements beyond existing GDC data submission procedures. Research institutions and clinical investigators engaged in cancer genomic data sharing should review the current form requirements and submit any concerns during the comment period.

What to do next

  1. Submit public comments on the GDC Data Submission Request Form by May 1, 2026 at www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain
  2. Contact NCI PRA Liaison Melissa Park at melissa.park@nih.gov for questions about the information collection requirements

Formal requests for additional plans and instruments must be requested in writing.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal Register on February 2, 2026 (Vol. 91, No. 21 FR 4570) and allowed 60 days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health, may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information collection listed below.

Proposed Collection Title: NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Submission Request Form, 0925- 0752, Expiration Date 04/30/2026, EXTENSION. National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose of the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Submission Request Form is to continue to provide a vehicle for investigators to request the submission of their cancer genomic data into the GDC in support of data sharing. The purpose is also to provide a mechanism for the GDC Data Submission Review Committee to review and assess the data submission request for applicability to the GDC mission. The scope of the form involves obtaining information from investigators that: (1) would like to submit data about their study into the GDC, (2) are affiliated with studies that adhere to GDC data submission conditions. The benefits of the collection are that it provides the needed information for investigators to understand the types of studies and data that the GDC supports and that it provides a standard mechanism for the GDC to assess incoming data submission requests. The only change requested in this Extension is a reduction in the number of respondents from 200 to 100, resulting in a reduction in the total annual burden hours from 50 to 25. There are no other substantive changes to this submission other than the cost-of-living changes to the federal and labor costs.

OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 25 hours.
