Investigators may not initiate any minor or major changes in research protocol , procedures or consent form(s) without prior IRB review and approval, except where necessary to eliminate apparent immediate hazards to the subject.
Submit to IRBmail@uthscsa.edu with revised IRB approved forms (using tracked changes in the most current IRB-approved forms [which were emailed to you with the approval letter]) or new forms as applicable. The PI may be copied on the submission in lieu of the Form A-1.
NOTE: Institutional Review is conducted concurrently by UT Health San Antonio through the Office of Clinical Research (OCR) for submissions that do not strictly require IRB regulatory review. An institutional activation letter from UTHSA is required prior to beginning your research. Does not apply if UT Health San Antonio is not engaged in research activities.
