- Addendum Applications New (Non-PAS or paper submission) Updated: 02/26/2009
The UMCP will no longer accept an email request for an Addendum Application without an Addendum Application Form attached. Addendum Applications Forms may be submitted via email, campus mail or in person. Please see Addendum Guidance for additional information on submitting an Addendum.
Important Points Regarding Addendums:
Federal Regulations require that all revisions be approved by the IRB prior to their implementation.
Addendums that increase the risk of research participation must be approved by the fully convened IRB committee.
If the proposed revisions heavily modify the protocol, the IRB may request that a New protocol application be submitted. Contact the IRB Office if you have questions.
No "Grace Period" for Continuing Reviews Updated: 02/05/2009
The UMCP IRB will no longer accept continuing review applications after a protocol expires. There will be no “grace period” for a continuing review submission after the expiration of a protocol. The UMCP IRB does not permit extensions of research projects beyond the IRB approval dates. Federal guidelines and University policy require that continuing review of non-exempt research be conducted by the IRB at intervals appropriate to the degree of risk and not less than once per year.
RENEWAL APPLICATIONS: The IRB recommends that Continuing Review applications be submitted to the IRB Office forty-five (45) days in advance of the expiration date of the protocol. This will allow appropriate time for review, administrative modifications and approval prior to protocol expiration. If a Continuing Review is not submitted prior to the expiration date, the protocol will expire and a New Protocol application must be submitted and approved in order to continue research activities. Download the Renewal application form from the ORAA website under "IRB Human Subjects". If it is in the best interest of individual subjects to continue participating in interventions or interactions for research in which approval has recently expired, the Principal Investigator should submit a request, to the IRB, for those research subjects to continue participating. The request should include a description of the potential harm if the subjects do not continue participating in the research.
REMINDER NOTICES: Due to technical difficulties we are currently unable to remove the following statement from the Renewal Notice sent from the IRB Office: “Your renewal application must be received no later than 90 days after the expiration date.” As mentioned above, this “grace period” is no longer in effect. We will modify the language in the Renewal Notice as soon as possible.
