New Feature: Allow to resend ‘Request Agreements’ notification

Reviewing IRBs and Study Managers can resend the Request Agreements notification to sites with incomplete agreements. From the Status Summary’s Agreement column, use the drop down and press ‘Request Agreements’ to resend a notification. The button and pop-up will show the last date the request agreement notification was sent for the site. 

Updated Feature: Renamed ‘Add Site Coordinator Access’ from the Approval History tab

The ‘Add Site Coordinator Access’ menu option on the Approval History tab, has been renamed to ‘Add Study Team Access’. The Reviewing IRB and Study Managers can now give additional or new PIs access to the study using the ‘Add Study Team Access’ dialog at any time. Previously, they were only able to give coordinators access.

New Feature: Grant Relying Site Study Teams Immediate IREx Access

IREx now automatically grants the relying site study teams access to the platform when their site is notified of a study. Study team contacts receive login credentials and can log in immediately to view study details, access the sIRB initial approval documents, and collaborate with the lead study team. Study teams no longer have to wait for their Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) administrators to log in and confirm access – minimizing unnecessary waiting periods. However, the relying HRPP must confirm study participation before the study team can complete the PI Survey.

Reviewing IRBs and Lead Study Teams (“IREx Study Managers”) can use the Status Summary page in IREx to notify sites and grant study teams access to the study.
