Conducting multi-center research under a Sponsor-Investigator held IND or IDE is highly complex and there are several considerations a Sponsor should be aware of before deciding to take responsibility for activities at external sites.  This talk provides practical information on Sponsor responsibilities which include, but are not limited to: selecting qualified investigators, providing them with the information they need to conduct an investigation properly, ensuring proper monitoring of the investigation(s), ensuring that the investigation(s) is conducted in accordance with the protocols contained in the IND/IDE, and ensuring that FDA and all participating investigators are promptly informed of significant new adverse effects or risks with respect to the investigational product.
