Application For Continuing Review And Study Closure

IRB #: Date of IRB Expiration: Principal Investigator: Study Title: NCT#: Abington Memorial Hospital Institutional Review Board Application for Continuing Review or Study Closure Please complete ALL sections of this form whether applying for Continuing Review or Study Closure.

1. STATUS OF THE RESEARCH Check the one choice that best describes the current state of the research: No participants have been enrolled to date. Recruitment and/or enrollment of new participants or review of records/specimens continue. Study is no longer enrolling, but participants still receive research-related interventions, (e.g., still receiving treatment, obtaining blood draws).

Study is no longer enrolling and participants have completed research-related interventions. The study remains active only for long-term follow-up. IRB fees do not apply. Study enrollment is permanently closed, participants have completed all research-related interventions, and long-term follow-up has been completed. The remaining research activities are limited only to data analysis that may require contact with records or specimens. IRB fees do not apply.

2. CLOSE THE STUDY Final study report, progress reports, and publications are to be submitted to the IRB as they become available. Close the study. Enrollment and follow-up are complete and no further contact with participants/records/specimens is anticipated. Describe the reason for closure (i.e., enrollment goals achieved, reason for early termination) and include closure date. IRB fees do not apply.

3. SUMMARY OF PROGRESS SINCE THE PREVIOUS IRB CONTINUING REVIEW APPROVAL * Record numbers reflective of activities where an AMH investigator is involved in the conduct of the research or is responsible for regulatory reporting (i.e., adverse events, progress reports):

A. Maximum number of participants previously approved by the AMH IRB to be consented by this PI for the life of the study

B. Total number of participants consented by this PI to participate to date (including any withdrawals by participant, deaths, PI or sponsor OR consented screen failures) How many of these participants completed the study to date? How many of these participants are deceased to date? How many of these participants are still in follow-up to date? How many of these participants were withdrawals/transfers to date?

C. Total number of participants consented by this PI since the previous IRB continuing review approval* (including any withdrawals by participant, deaths, PI or sponsor OR consented screen failures) How many of these participants completed the study since the previous IRB review? How many of these participants are deceased since the previous IRB review? How many of these participants are still in follow-up since the previous IRB review? How many of these participants were withdrawals/transfers since the previous IRB review?
