You can close a study with the IRB when it meets four conditions:
- The protocol is permanently closed to enrollment at this institution.
- All subjects enrolled at this institution have completed all protocol-related interventions and interactions, including interventions and interactions related to collection of long-term follow-up data.
- No additional identifiable private information about the subjects is being obtained by this institution’s investigator.
- Analysis of private identifiable information at this institution is completed.
At any time, close a study by submitting a Continuing Review, even if continuing reviews are not required for the study. In the submission, indicate that the four milestones have been met.
For more details, see the IRB Investigator Manual.
