[All CCRP Questions]

Which of the following should a clinical investigator include in a submission to an IRB/IEC for a Phase IV drug study?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

For IRB/IEC submissions, investigators must disclose subject-related information that may impact voluntariness or fairness of participation.

21 CFR 56.111(a)(3): The IRB must ensure that subject selection is equitable.

21 CFR 50.25(a)(3): Requires disclosure of ''any compensation and/or medical treatments available if injury occurs.''

ICH E6(R2) 4.8.10(n): Informed consent should describe ''any compensation and/or reimbursement to subjects.''

Thus, compensation amounts must be reviewed by IRB/IEC to ensure they are not coercive or excessive. Budgets (A), marketing plans (C), and contracts (D) are administrative and not part of IRB submission requirements.

Correct answer: B (The amount of payments and compensation to subjects).


21 CFR 50.25(a)(3).

ICH E6(R2), 4.8.10(n).

I think B is crucial. Subjects need to know compensation.

I thought only the budget and compensation were necessary.

Wait, do we really need the clinical trial agreement for IRB?

The drug development plan sounds familiar, but I’m not confident if it’s something the IRB needs to see for a Phase IV study.

I feel like the clinical trial agreement is relevant, but I can't recall if it’s mandatory for the IRB submission.

I remember discussing compensation for subjects in class; it seems like that should definitely be included.

I think the budget might be important, but I'm not entirely sure if it’s required for the IRB submission.
