1) The term of the CRADA is extended to an additional one (1) year term (December 14, 2011 – December 14, 2012). This additional term is for completion of all ongoing studies and activities under the CRADA. During this term, Collaborator (Delcath Systems, Inc.) will provide complete access to the data in the eCaseLink database for all intramural and extramural studies under the CRADA. This is inclusive of all updates and improvements to the eCaseLink database. Once the database is complete, either the database or a copy of the completed database will be transferred to the NCI Surgery Branch.
