Clinical trial notification (CTN) form - user guide
V1.2, August 2020
21 August 2020
Manual submission
Once the CTN form has been validated, the form can then be submitted to us by a user with a 'submitter role'.
Note: If you clicked Submit in the drafts section after validating, you will be automatically re-directed to the Submissions page.
If you are unable to select Submit or Submission in your online portal, you may not have a 'submitter user role'. You will need to contact your organisation's administrator to update your system role. See Roles: what each user can do and Drafter/submitter role specific information.

Option 1
- Access the dashboard as described in How to login.
- Select Applications from the top menu on the dashboard.
- Select Submission under the Clinical Trials heading.
Option 2

The Clinical Trials Submissions page will then open.

Select the Close button to exit. Your CTN has now been submitted to us for processing. See How to check the status of your CTN for information on checking the status of your CTN.
If you have submitted a notification and you need to make changes before it is processed, see Editing a submitted form or a push back.
Otherwise you can now move on to Paying for your CTN.
Once the CTN form has been submitted and paid for, we will review the CTN to ensure data has been entered correctly.
