A new SOP entitled “Off-Site Storage of Research Records” has been released and is available on the CCTO website at http://med.stanford.edu/ccto/services/regulatory.html#sops_guidelines. The intention of this SOP is to ensure appropriate controls of research records that are in long-term storage whether on-site at Stanford or off-site at a storage vendor. The storage process is usually initiated after a study is completed but may be initiated during the conduct due to space limitations. This SOP should be reviewed with documentation of the review/training within each CRG.
