What is an Institutional Review Board (IRB)?

An Institutional Review Board (IRB) is an independent committee established to protect the rights, safety, and well-being of participants in clinical trials. The IRB reviews and approves study protocols, informed consent documents, and other trial-related materials to ensure they comply with ethical standards, regulatory requirements, and scientific validity.

For example, before a clinical trial begins, the IRB evaluates whether the study design minimizes risks, respects participants' autonomy, and maximizes potential benefits.

‍

Why is an Institutional Review Board Important?

The IRB plays a crucial role in safeguarding participants and ensuring the ethical conduct of clinical trials. Key responsibilities include:

• Participant Protection: Ensures that risks are minimized and reasonable compared to potential benefits.
• Ethical Oversight: Evaluates the study to ensure compliance with ethical principles like those outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and Belmont Report.
• Regulatory Compliance: Verifies that the trial adheres to local and international regulations, such as those from the FDA or EMA.
• Informed Consent Review: Ensures that participants are fully informed about the study's purpose, risks, and benefits before enrolling.

The IRB is essential for maintaining trust and accountability in clinical research.

• The study design prioritizes your safety and rights.
• The informed consent process is clear, comprehensive, and fair.
• Any risks associated with the trial are justified and well-communicated.

As a participant, you can trust that an independent body is actively working to protect your interests throughout the trial.
