Description: Laura Meloney, Hayat Ahmed, and Barbara Bierer coordinated a modified Delphi process to establish consensus on recommendations for IRBs/ethics committees and institutions to promote diversity and inclusion in interventional clinical research. In this paper, they discuss the 25 consolidated recommendations across four themes.
Details: The MRCT Center offered comprehensive comments in response to the FDA Draft Guidance FDA-2022-D-2870, entitled Decentralized Clinical Trials for Drugs, Biological Products, and Devices: Draft Guidance for Industry, Investigators, and Other Stakeholders (FDA-2022-D-2870). The MRCT Center applauds the FDA for providing this timely and informative guidance, and our comments are intended to further clarify and expand the Agency’s recommendations. Read more here.
Description: Luke Gelinas, MRCT Center Senior Advisor, Walker Morrell, former MRCT Center Project Manager, and Barbara Bierer published an ethical analysis of terms of service and other agreements used in mobile health technologies in clinical research. Risks, mitigating strategies, and recommendations for disclosure (with points to consider) were discussed to help ensure the privacy interests and rights of participants.
Description: Colleagues in the UK, assisted by Dr. Bierer, assessed site staff experience in returning plain language summaries to participants after completion of a trial. Not only did the staff feel that the communication was important but there were no concerns or challenges in responding to participant questions. Operations and cost were both feasible.
