Single IRBs can now use IREx to provide tailored instructions to relying sites, significantly reducing administrative burdens and accelerating research timelines. When completing the IREx Setup, Single IRBs can include site instructions for:
- Executing Required Agreements: Instructions for executing the necessary agreements between the Single IRB and relying sites. No more one-size-fits-all approaches – adapt the instructions to communicate the agreement requirements for your study.
- Completing the Single IRB Process: Guide relying sites through the single IRB process with clear and concise instructions for both the relying site HRPP and study teams.
Note: After the sIRB confirms the instructions in the IREx setup, sIRBs or lead study teams (“IREx Study Managers”) can use the Status Summary page to send the instructions to sites.
