Exam Review Flashcards
It is the 1)____________ responsibility to determine if AEs were reported appropriately in the proper timeframe, it is the 2)_____________responsibility actually report these events.
1)Monitor’s
2) investigator
Who determines requirements and schedule of frequency of monitoring visits?
-determined by the sponsor
- adjusted according to the needs of the particular trial
-not effected by ICH or regulatory guidelines
Who is ultimately responsible for the conduct of the trial, including making time for the trial activities
PI
The monitor follows what for specifics in monitoring a trial?
sponsor’s written SOPs
Who is responsible for quality control and assurance in a trial?
The sponsor
-example: version controlled documents
Who actually reports AEs to sponsor and IRB

AE Reporting
1) Investigators reports to the sponsor:
2) Sponsors report to investigators and FDA:
3) Investigators and sponsors report to the IRB:
1) Any adverse event (AE) determined to be caused by (or probably caused by) the drug

3) All unanticipated problems (UAPs) involving risks to human subjects or others
Source document v CRF
Source data are contained in source documents (original or certified).
A Case Report Form (CRF) is a printed or electronic document designed to record all of the study data about a study participant
The first place data is recorded in a trial is known as ____________
Source document
The _____________________ documents that all closeout activities are complete and that all essential documents are held in the appropriate file.
closeout report
The clinical program typically includes a number of individual clinical trials, and the investigator will likely not have participated in all of them. Therefore, in practice, an investigator may not know the status of the sponsor’s clinical program and so would not know when their record retention obligations under ICH had been met. The investigator in this case is _________________ to notify the site when records retention is no longer required according to the status of their clinical program.
is dependent upon the sponsor
The primary objective of a Phase I study is to:.

The primary objective of a Phase II study
explore therapeutic efficacy.
The primary objective of a Phase III study is
to demonstrate, or confirm therapeutic benefit.
The primary objective of a Phase IV study is
to delve further into the approved IP’s safety, efficacy and dose definition.
If the events are not listed in the IB, the events are considered ________________.
unexpected
Site/investigator selection is a _________________responsibility
What form is used in site selection?

1) PI should be notified first as he/she is responsible for the subject’s wellbeing while on the clinical trial and should ensure that adequate medical care is provided to the subject for all adverse events.
