SOP 406: FINAL PROJECT REPORTS
POLICY
The completion or termination of the study is a change in activity and must be reported to the IRB. A final project report is submitted by the Investigator to notify the IRB of the completion or termination of a project. A final project report provides information to the
IRB regarding the final status of the project and allows the IRB to close the study file. In the event that the Investigator fails to apply for continuing review or fails to submit a final project report, the IRB must administratively close the study. When final project reports are acknowledged by the IRB, the study file is closed and no further activity related to the study may be conducted. Study files are retained as described in SOP 308
(Document Management).
Guidance for determining when a final project report should be submitted is posted on the IRB website. Additionally, the Investigator may not submit a final project report in the
ERICA system if he/she is unable to verify such criteria are met.
