This CLE course will guide counsel for navigating agency regulations and the Common Rule revisions for clinical trials and human subjects research. The panel will discuss the new Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance, examine the practical impact for stakeholders such as hospitals, research organizations and drug manufacturers, and will outline compliance strategies to meet the regulatory requirements.

Description

In Oct. 2018, the FDA issued new guidance on complying with agency regulations and Common Rule revisions that govern research involving human subjects in clinical trials. It focuses on informed consent, expedited review procedures and IRB continuing review. The FDA published the Final Rule to revise the Common Rule in 2017, and many of the provisions went into effect in 2018.

The Common Rule has been in place since 1991, and the revisions provide a regulatory update in light of the many changes in the healthcare and life sciences industries since that time. The Final Rule addresses issues concerning informed consent, secondary research use of information and biospecimens, harmonization with the HIPAA Privacy Rule, review of multi-site research, and more.

Attorneys advising stakeholders in healthcare and the life sciences, including drug and device manufacturers, hospitals, academic medical centers, universities and medical schools, and institutional review boards, must fully understand the scope and complexity of the Common Rule revisions as well as the recent FDA guidance to ensure clients are in full compliance.

Listen as our authoritative panel examines the agency regulations and the Common Rule revisions for clinical trials and human research. The panel will discuss the new FDA guidance and consider the impact on stakeholders involved in clinical trials and human research. The panel will outline compliance strategies to meet the regulatory requirements.
