How does RCRC IRB handle review of advertisements?
If the advertisement is submitted as part of the initial submission, the full Board reviews the advertisement. This action will be noted in the action letter. If the advertisement is submitted after the study is approved, the advertisement may be submitted and reviewed using the “expedited review” procedure. RCRC IRB staff will perform a preliminary review of all advertisements and recruitment material, to ensure that it does not include any coercive language or other elements. RCRC IRB staff may request that you make revisions prior to submission to the Chairperson or designee. Please review FORM 610, for guidance on developing and using Recruitment and Study Material. Please request IRB approval by submitting Form 220.
