CTSA Consortium Child Health Oversight Committee - Pediatric Research Ethics
Description: |
The Pediatric Research Ethics group will encourage uniformity and clarity in ethical and regulatory aspects of pediatric research. This workgroup also seeks to liaise with other committees and groups across the CTSA Consortium that are dealing with ethical and regulatory issues. The Pediatric Research Ethics Workgroup (PREW) has been gathering information and examining approaches to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) process for pediatric multisite studies in a systematic fashion that included two conferences, on September 11, 2007 and April 23, 2009. Following input from the conferences and a presentation and discussion with the Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Human Research Protections on July 21, 2009, the PREW is preparing to implement a pilot project of a federated model for linking IRBs through an operations center and aligning IRB practice through a compact that outlines the principles, process and performance expectations of IRBs that volunteer to participate in the federation.
