The Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program has established a collaborative research network called the Trial Innovation Network<\/em>. The Trial Innovation Network is comprised of more than 50 medical research institutions in 31 states funded by the CTSA Program.<\/p>\n The goal of the Trial Innovation Network is to execute multi-site trials better, faster, and more economically.\u00a0 To achieve this, the Network features a single IRB system, master contracting agreements, quality by design approaches, and a focus on evidence-based strategies for recruitment and patient engagement. The Network will also serve as a national laboratory to study, understand, and accelerate the process of conducting clinical trials.<\/p>\n Investigators can engage the Trial Innovation Network through consultations and services to support multi-center clinical trials and studies. Consultations may lead to clinical protocols that can be implemented at CTSA institutions across the country.<\/p>\n All proposals should be reviewed and approved by the ITHS Hub Liaison Team prior to submission.

This service will provide CIRB services to a funded multi-center clinical trial.<\/p>\n The Trial Innovation Network CIRB<\/a> will also provide resources, tools, and a web-based platform (SMART IRB Exchange<\/a>) to operationalize the CIRB. The goal is to ensure all site investigators understand the process for initiating the use of a CIRB at their local institution, as well how to submit and report to the CIRB from initial submission to study closeout.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n The complexity of contract negotiations can be a major barrier to timely study start-up. The Trial Innovation Network can help you save time by implementing the use of the Federal Demonstration Partnership (FDP)-CTSA Standard Agreement for your multi-site study. This streamlined process accelerates site participation in clinical trials by reducing delays due to contract negotiations.<\/p>\n Please contact us if you\u2019d like to receive a copy of the FDP-CTSA Standard Agreement.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_empty_space height=”14px”][vc_column_text]Learn more about the contract <\/i><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Download the SMART IRB Agreement<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n The University of Washington has agreed to utilize the CTSA Smart IRB and the Accelerated Clinical Trial Agreement to facilitate single IRB reliance and standardize contracts.
