点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The Central Institutional Review Board (CIRB) Initiative is a project of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to develop, implement, and manage a centralized model of IRB review for multi-site, NCI-sponsored clinical trials. The goal of the Initiative is two-fold: to streamline regulatory compliance and decrease the duplicative burden of protocol review that currently occurs at hundreds of local IRBs nationwide by providing a single, centralized review that can be utilized by local IRBs participating in NCI-sponsored multi-center trials; and to maintain and enhance the protection of research participants by providing consistent, expert IRB review at the national level. The purpose of this contract is to provide the government with the expertise in IRB and other Federal regulations, IRB operations, ethics, quality, information technology, and program management necessary to manage the NCI CIRB and support the institutions that rely on it.
