Clinical Trials Protocol Templates

The creation of the NIAID Clinical Trial protocol templates was approved by the Executive Committee in 2006. The goal of the templates is to provide a standardized template to assist NIAID investigators in writing and developing clinical research protocols that are in compliance with regulatory and other requirements. The use of these templates is not mandatory but highly recommended.
