Purpose
To oversee
and monitor clinical
trials to ensure participant safety and the validity and integrity
of the data. This SOP is one of several describing clinical trial requirements;
also see Human Subjects SOPs.
Procedure
Clinical grant applications must follow instructions in either the Grant
Application Guide (for an electronic application) or PHS
398 (for a paper application).
All awards must comply with
the NIAID Clinical Terms
of Award. NIAID can award applications and proposals only
if they comply with all policies.
Principal Investigators
- If you are conducting a multisite clinical
trial involving interventions that pose more than a minimal risk
to the participants, you must have a data
and safety monitoring board (DSMB) to monitor the trial. See
the June
10, 1998, Guide notice.
- For additional information, read the June
5, 2000, Guide notice.
- Data and safety monitoring functions and oversight are distinct from
the requirement for institutional
review board (IRB) protocol review and approval.
- For trials with DSMBs, send summary reports of adverse events to
each IRB involved in the study; see the June
11, 1999, Guide notice for details.
- Find more information on human subjects requirements at NIAID
human subjects resources on the Research
Funding Web site, and in our Clinical
Trial Monitoring SOP and Human Subjects
Certifications: IRB or IEC SOP.
