Involving Risks to Subjects or Others in Biomedical Research

  1. Question: An investigational biologic administered to the first two subjects in a Phase II clinical trial was not appropriately screened for two viral contaminants, HIV and Hepatitis B, due to human error in the screening process. Follow- up testing indicated that the subjects and their partners were not infected.
  2. The subjects and others were notified of the increased risk.
  3. Question: Housekeeping employees of the medical center were recruited for a federally funded study of blood pressure, blood count levels, infectious disease history, and job stress. The interviews and blood tests were conducted in a private location not affiliated with the study center. Follow- up interviews were conducted in the same location. The study coordinator stopped at the cafeteria on her way back to the study office after the second study visit for the last three study subjects and lost the three file folders.
  4. Question: A subject received the wrong study drug resulting in severe nausea and vomiting, and a visit to the emergency room for treatment. The subject notified the study coordinator the day after the emergency room visit. The study coordinator reviewed the subject’s study records and discovered the error. The coordinator notified the subject of the study drug error, which caused the nausea and vomiting. The investigator notified the IRB and the IRB approved a revision of the standard pharmacy procedure for administering investigational drugs.
  5. Question: A Data Safety Monitoring Board report for an investigator-initiated investigational drug study indicates a significantly higher than anticipated
  6. Question: A study requires that each subject be given two study drugs. The first study drug is given on Day 1. A second study drug is given on Day 7 to counteract the toxicity of Drug 1. Subject # 4-706 is given Drug 1 on Day 1. Due to a snowstorm, Subject 4-706 is delayed for several days before returning to the site for Drug 2. Missing the administration of Drug 2 on Day 7 placed the subject at risk of significant toxicity. This event required the subject be notified of the increased risk and required close monitoring of the subject by phone.
