It is crucial to verify the components of an ICF and compliant signature requirements as part of the site monitoring process. The informed consent form is the means by which subjects are informed of the risks, benefits, and obligations of participation in an investigational study. It is the responsibility of the CRA to give ICF review the highest priority while onsite, and to ensure that all signature and date requirements are completed by those individuals conducting the ICF discussion, as well as the subject consenting to study participation. Additionally, informed consent form requirements have evolved to include HIPAA, tissue and PK categories, pediatric status, as well as individual state regulations and documentation. This course details the various categories of the ICF components, the various IRB signature requirements, and how to correctly review and confirm an ICF during onsite monitoring.
