What if a participant cannot make their scheduled study visit?
If a participant at a site is unable to complete a required study related activity per the CIRB approved protocol due to COVID-19 or COVID-19 control measures, the investigator must assess whether this constitutes a minor protocol deviation or a major protocol deviation.
Please find attached a memo providing additional guidance for clinical trials supported by CTEP and the NCORP due to concerns regarding the spread of the novel coronavirus. CTEP and the NCORP are providing additional guidance on alternative procedures that can be used for trials supported by CTEP and the NCORP to address some of the current challenges in providing care to patients in order to mitigate immediate hazards to the patients.
