I definitely remember discussing the need for IRB/IEC approval in class, so I'm leaning towards C being the correct answer.

I feel like notifying enrolled subjects is important, but I can't recall if it's a requirement before shipping. Maybe it's D?

I remember a practice question about shipping samples, and I think we had to consider the material transfer agreement too. Could it be A?
