1 IRB POLICY ON HUMAN RESEARCH PROTECTION (HRP) AND GOOD CLINICAL PRACTICE (GCP) TRAINING Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) Requirements at Adventist Healthcare, Inc. I. Required Human Protection (HRP) Training Since 2000, accreditation agencies and funding agencies have adopted policies which mandate institutions to require human research protection education for research personnel on all research projects regardless of funding source. As part of our institutional goal of maintaining training within the research community, Adventist has adopted the web-based training provided through the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) for human research protection training certification for: a) all research personnel; and b) those with research review, approval, and oversight responsibilities affiliated with Adventist Healthcare, Inc. The IRB Administrative staff is responsible for tracking training module completion according to the requirements outlined below. Those with responsibilities in the review, approval and oversight of aspects of the research program at Adventist and all research personnel who participate in the conduct of research with human subjects (i.e. are responsible for the study design, data or specimen collection, or who contribute to the scientific development or execution of the study in a substantive and measurable way) are required to meet this training requirement. This includes studies exempt from IRB review, but does not include projects that are deemed to be not human subjects research or if the investigators are found to be not engaged in human subjects personnel and other individuals meeting the above criteria shall initially complete modules based on their designated learner group (see Appendix I through Appendix VII for required modules and approximate completion time based on learner group). The learner groups are as follows: a) Biomedical investigators/research personnel b) Social and Behavioral investigators/research personnel c) Data or Specimen Investigators/ Personnel d) IRB members/staff e) Human Protection Quality Committee (HRPQC) members f) Institutional Officials g) Operations Evaluation (ROE) members Satisfactory completion of the assigned modules requires a composite passing score of 85% or higher. This policy establishes minimum institutional requirements. It does not limit the ability of departments or committees to require additional training requirements. Individuals must meet any funding agency or sponsor requirements, and any terms, conditions or regulatory requirements related to awards, contracts or specific projects. In addition to the listed required modules in the Appendices, those with responsibilities in the review, approval, oversight and conduct of research involving: a) Prisoners, will be required to complete the CITI module entitled Vulnerable Subjects with Prisoners ; and IRB POLICY ON HUMAN RESEARCH PROTECTION AND GOOD CLINICAL PRACTICE TRAINING Page of

2 b) Children, will be required to complete the CITI module entitled Vulnerable Subjects - Involving Minors. a. Timeframe for of Training FOR INITIAL LAUNCH IN 20 only (in BOLD): If you are current and up-to-date with your human research protection (HRP) training status, then you are still required to complete a CITI assignment. AHC requires the completion of assigned modules by September 2, 20 by all research personnel involved with studies that are currently open, as of March, 20. Adventist is providing 6 months to these applicable individuals to complete their assignment. Consideration was given to individuals other commitments along with the need to provide adequate protection to human research subjects. The Principal Investigator, co- and sub- investigator, and other research personnel listed on IRB submissions and the study Delegation of Authority form must satisfactorily complete or be current with all required modules before receiving IRB approval on initial or continuing review of a submission, or prior to a submission being declared exempt. Satisfactory completion of all required modules is also required as part of the just-in-time (JIT) information required for federal grants. b. Noncompliance with Required Training personnel and IRB members who have not completed their assigned required training by the designated completion date will be removed from their role by the Adventist IRB (through notification by the IRB Chairperson) or the Adventist Chief Quality and Integrity Officer (or designee), and not be permitted to continue in their respective role. Reinstatement will occur only once the required training is complete, and will be documented by the Adventist IRB or the Adventist Chief Quality and Integrity Officer (or designee). All other learner groups must complete the required education to continue in their oversight roles. c. Acceptable Alternatives The only acceptable initial training from another institution is documentation of completion of the Adventist required modules within the past years. personnel not affiliated with Adventist, who have completed human research protection training elsewhere may contact the IRB Administrative Office to determine if their training is acceptable to meet the Adventist requirement. d. Renewal of Training Renewal of CITI training is required every three years in order to continue research activities that involve human subjects. There are two options for renewing human research protection training:. CITI: Refresher modules for recertification will be available for renewal every three years on the anniversary date of the most recent CITI module completed. Thus, recertification is IRB POLICY ON HUMAN RESEARCH PROTECTION AND GOOD CLINICAL PRACTICE TRAINING Page 2 of

3 based on a rolling date determined by when the individual last completed human research protocol education. The CITI system will send a reminder notice 90 days prior to expiration. 2. If you have attended a human research protection program (i.e. Public Responsibility in Medicine and (PRIM&R)) within the last six months, and have an attendance certificate from that training, it will satisfy the renewal requirement. Please note that attending an isolated session on human research protection as part of a conference on another subject matter will not satisfy the renewal requirement. II. Recommended Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Training Adventist recommends that investigators on both FDA-regulated and non-regulated clinical studies complete the GCP online training program on the CITI training site. The average learner spends approximately 4.5 hours and uses approximately 5 logins to complete the entire group of modules that comprise the GCP course. Each GCP module has text to read and a quiz to complete. Please see Appendix VIII for available modules Good Clinical Practice (GCP) is the international ethical and scientific standard expected in design, conduct, performance, monitoring, auditing, recording, analysis, and reporting of clinical trials. Compliance with GCP provides regulators assurance that data are reported, results are credible and accurate, and that the rights, safety, confidentiality, and well-being of clinical trial subjects are protected. Additionally, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations (effective October 27, 2008) require that non-ind foreign clinical studies, that support an IND or application for marketing approval for a drug or biological product, be conducted in accordance with ICH GCP. Previously these studies had to be conducted in accordance with ethical principles stated in the 989 version of the Declaration of Helsinki version issued by the World Medical Association (WMA). The International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) / WHO Good Clinical Practice (GCP) brings together the regulatory authorities of Europe, Japan and the United States and experts from the pharmaceutical industry to achieve greater harmonisation both in technical guidelines and in requirements for pharmaceutical data acquisition to reduce or obviate the need for duplicate testing. III. Policy Questions For questions on this policy, please contact the AHC IRB Administrative Office by phone (at ) or (CITI@ahm.com). IV. Policy Revisions This policy will be reviewed at least every year. IRB POLICY ON HUMAN RESEARCH PROTECTION AND GOOD CLINICAL PRACTICE TRAINING Page of
