I hereby assure the following: 1. The information provided in this application/worksheet is accurate to the best of my knowledge. 2. All named individuals on this project have read and understand the procedures outlined in the protocol and their role on the study. 3. All named individuals on this project have completed the required electronic educational research tutorials and have been made aware of the "Common Rule" (45 CFR Part 46), applicable Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations (21 CFR Parts 50, 56, 312 and 812), have read the Belmont Report, and UCI's Federalwide Assurance (FWA) that are available on the Human Research Protections (HRP) website. 4. All experiments and procedures involving human subjects performed by the UCI study team will be under my supervision or that of another qualified professional listed on this protocol. 5. I understand that, should I use the project described in this application as a basis for a proposal for funding (either intramural or extramural), it is my responsibility to ensure that the description of human subjects use in the funding proposal(s) is identical in principle to that contained in this application. I will submit modifications and/or changes to the Reviewing IRB as necessary to ensure these are identical. I, as the Lead Researcher of this study at UCI, and all co-investigators and research personnel agree to comply with all applicable requirements for the protection of human subjects in research including, but not limited to, the following: 1. Obtaining the legally effective informed consent or assent of all human subjects and/or consent of their legally authorized representatives (unless waived) and using only the currently approved, stamped consent form (if applicable). Obtaining HIPAA Research Authorization from human subjects or their legally authorized representatives, as applicable (unless waived). 2. Making no changes to the approved protocol or consent form without first having submitted those changes for review and approval by the Reviewing IRB, unless the changes are necessary to eliminate an apparent immediate hazard to subjects. Changes made to eliminate hazards to UCI subjects must be reported to the Reviewing IRB according to the Reviewing IRB’s policies and procedures as well as to UCI IRB via the AE/UP reporting process. 3. Reporting any unanticipated problems involving risk to subjects or others, and potential noncompliance to the Reviewing IRB in accordance Reviewing IRB’s policies and procedures. UCI events must also be reported to UCI IRB via the electronic AE/UP reporting process. In addition, UCI HIPAA privacy violations must be PROMPTLY disclosed to the UCI Privacy Officer. There are time requirements for reporting these breaches of confidentiality, which, if not met, may result in monetary damages to the researcher and the institution. UCI HRP version: March 2015 Page 8 of 10 4. Responding appropriately to participants’ complaints or requests for information about the study; and reporting to the Reviewing IRB and UCI IRB any participant complaints that are not resolvable by the study team. 5. Promptly providing the Reviewing IRB and UCI IRB with any information requested relative to the project. 6. Assuring the appropriate administration and control of investigational test articles (i.e., investigational drugs, biologics or devices) by a qualified investigator or other appropriate individual or entity (e.g., UCIMC pharmacy), and assuring use and maintenance of an Investigational Drug/Biologic Accountability Log or Device Accountability Log. 7. Assuring that the clinical research is registered with clinicaltrials.gov in accordance with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements for sponsor-investigators. For more information about this topic, visit the National Institutes of Health Frequently Asked Questions or the HRP webpage. The consequences of not meeting the registration requirements include monetary damages to the researcher and the institution. 8. Obtaining continuing approval from the Reviewing IRB prior to study expiration. It may be necessary to provide information about the progress of the study at UCI to the Primary PI at the site of the Reviewing IRB who then submits for continuing approval. (I understand if the Primary PI fails to apply for continuing review, approval for the study will automatically expire, and study activity must cease until IRB approval is obtained). 9. Promptly and completely complying with an IRB decision to suspend or terminate its approval for some or all research activities. 10. Submitting to a routine review of human subject research records. In an effort to ensure in part that human subject research activities are conducted in accordance with regulations, laws and institutional policies regarding the protection of human subjects, the Office of Research Oversight (ORO) in the School of Medicine and the Education Quality and Improvement Program (EQUIP) unit in Human Research Protections, Office of Research conduct periodic quality improvement monitoring and educational outreach. The EQUIP unit monitors active biomedical research and social, behavioral and educational research projects. 11. Filing a final report with Reviewing IRB at the conclusion of this project. ___________________________ Typed Name of Lead Researcher ___________________________ Signature of Lead Researcher Date ___________________________ Typed Name of Faculty Sponsor (if a Faculty Sponsor is required) ___________________________ Signature of Faculty Sponsor _________ Date UCI HRP version: March 2015 Page 9 of 10 DISCLOSURE OF INVESTIGATORS' FINANCIAL INTERESTS University of California, Irvine Institutional Review Board Study Title: In order to inform research subjects of circumstances that may affect their decision to participate in this study, all researchers are required to disclose their financial interests with outside institutions.
