  1. Adverse Event Reporting Serelda Young, RN, CCRC Corporate Integrity Karen Marie Sorapuru, CIP IRB Administrator CRC Meeting January 17, 2008

  2. Concerns identified at the CRC meeting • IRB requirements versus sponsor requirements • Generalized confusion regarding the reporting of local and non-local events • Confusion regarding severity, relatedness and unexpectedness • Inconsistency with PIs determining severity, relatedness and unexpectedness • Necessity of electronic copies for IRB submission • Confusion about when to use the AE form and when to use the AE log • Inability to track the submission of non-local events without submitting them individually

  3. Adverse Event Reporting • Individual Policies • Internal Events • External Events

  4. EXTERNAL ONLY!

  5. IRB wants only local SAEs Sponsors want IRB Acknowledgement for each Non-local SAE

  6. Clinical Research • Sponsors are responsible for the success of the individual clinical trials. • The IRB is responsible for Human Subject Protection. • CRCs are responsible for everything!”

  7. External Event Management • Responsible Party= Sponsor • Best Practice = regular submission of Data Monitoring Committee Reports • Exception = an event that increases the human subject riskfor participating in a trial must be reported to everyone involved

  8. Institutional Changes • Individual policies for internal and external adverse event reporting • IRB Memo to sponsors • Changes to the ERSAsystem

  9. Overview of ERSA Updates • Submission types for Reportable Events • Added Adverse Event Report Log • Order of options has been changed • Examples or explanations added to better define options • With new options are new corresponding pages

  10. Application Page Updates • Adverse Event Log • New Option • Used if Sponsor, despite our best efforts, are still insisting that you submit ALL external event reports • Updated Log • Can be found in the Forms and Templates folder on ERSA home page (IND Report Log) • No longer asks the local PI to make any determinations regarding relatedness, severity, etc. • Contains a text box that will populate to the acknowledgment letter

  11. Application Page Updates • External SAE • Option now explains “…only one [report] per application” • IRB Staff will return applications with more than one report attached • Effective today, January 17, 2008 • Note at the top of the application page now states: • “As of 1/17/2008, this application form should only be used if the event being reported is deemed [by the Sponsor] to have a direct link to the test article that is so important that everyone must be notified immediately.”

  12. What’s Next? • Acknowledgment templates will be updated • System notifications of acknowledged reportable events will be activated • Continuing review applications will be updated • To accommodate the current SAE reporting requirements and to clarify what those numbers include • To attach DSMB reports • The IRB/CRC Meeting (Monday-January 21-10:00 am- Tyrone Room) will be dedicated to hearing your suggestions and requests concerning ERSA updates.
