Introduction to Oncore

Nov 6, 2025 | Conduits News, Edition 8

OnCore is Mount Sinai’s Clinical Trials Management System (CTMS), that is designed to support the full lifecycle of research studies. It helps teams manage protocols, track enrollment and oversee finances —all through integrated tools and automated workflows. 

Mount Sinai’s OnCore Protocol Build mandate states that: 

  • All prospective non- cancer human subject research studies with billable services are built by the OCT. 
  • Interventional studies and those using Epic for scheduling or ordering must be entered into OnCore. 
  • Non-interventional studies that meet the mandate may qualify for summary accrual only use, unless participant payments are involved. 
  • Studies that do not meet the mandate can still be built by submitting an OnCore Service Desk request 

Access & Training – To access OnCore:
