Are you an IND Holder?

If you are the holder of an IND (a.k.a. Sponsor-Investigator), you assume the responsibilities of both an investigator AND a sponsor. The QI Program can assist you in ensuring compliance with FDA regulations governing sponsor-investigators.

The QI Program has developed a checklist as well as other relevant tools that will help you to meet the FDA requirements and be ready for an unexpected audit. The best way for the QI Program to help you is through an on-site review, during which the QI staff will guide you through your responsibilities including setting up essential documents, data collection, record keeping, monitoring activities and FDA reporting requirements. This type of on-site review usually takes between 2 - 4 hours.

If you would like to schedule a review/consultation, or are interested in learning more about our service, please contact Julie Kaberry at 617-424-4138 or Sarah White at 617-424-4137.
