New Feature: Add Participant box for Study Managers
Study Managers now have a “Participant” box added to their Dashboard menu to view the studies they are participating in as a relying site study team. The descriptive text next to the Participant box indicates , “Your site is a Participant in [#] studies”.
New Feature: Mark site(s) as Not Enrolling
Some sites on studies are ‘engaged in research’, but they aren’t consenting participants. The question, “Is Site Enrolling?” is now added to the Overall Study/ Lead Site and Relying Site Approvals dialog. The sIRB and Study Manager can now mark when a site is not enrolling. The “Site Not Enrolling” indicator will be shown on the Study-wide IRB Approvals Tab for the lead site and for a site’s published approval. All sites marked as not enrolling will not require a consent form for upload. When a new approval version is created, the site’s enrollment status will carry forward and can be updated as needed.
Updated Feature: Remove Requirement to Name Document Prior to Upload for Lead Site Approval
For lead site approvals, the requirement to enter a description when uploading documents for Other IRB Approved Documents, Others, and Package Insert has been removed. The Reviewing IRB and Study Manager have the option to edit the name for those document types after upload.
