The theft or loss of significant quantities of controlled substances must be reported to the:

DEA
FDA
JCAHO
USP

The correct answer is: DEA

If significant quantities of controlled substances are lost or stolen, it is necessary to report this incident to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). The DEA is responsible for enforcing laws and regulations related to controlled substances and ensuring their safe handling. The other options, such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO), and the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), do not have the same jurisdiction or authority to handle this type of situation.
