The SOP was updated to remove the NCI CIRB requirement for a witness in all cases of remote consent as CIRB has eliminated that requirement. No other substantive changes were made. This updated SOP will be reviewed at the 20 October 2022 CCTO All Staff meeting.

Adoption of the new protocol template is going well since it’s availability 30 April. However, we are aware that some IIT studies are still being received or developed on the old template, despite the upcoming deadline of 30 June for acceptance of all new IIT protocol on the old template. The deadline is extended until 30 July, which is 3 months from the announcement and availability of the new template. Until 30 July, new IIT protocols submitted on the old template will continue to be referred for a Regulatory consult to insert key aspects of the new template, specifically, alignment to the current SCI Data Safety Monitoring Plan (DSMP) and ClinicalTrials.gov considerations. After 30 July, submitters will be asked to re-submit on the new template, which will include this information by default.
