Decision Tree
To determine whether or not IDS should be involved with a trial, the following 4 questions need to be answered for each medication being used in the trial:
- Will the medication be provided by the sponsor?
- Is the medication commercially available?
- Are accountability logs required by the sponsor?
- Will there be a matching placebo?
If, for all medications, the answer to question number 2 is Yes, and No for questions 1,3 & 4, then IDS may not need to be involved in the trial. Please submit a request for an exception to the use of IDS services by using the contact link below.
For all other trials that do not fit into the above scenario, IDS must be involved.
If you are ever unsure whether or not IDS needs to be involved, please be sure to contact us.
