Posting Federally Funded
Clinical Trial Consent Forms

Length and complexity are common concerns with clinical trial consent forms. The posting provision of the Revised Common Rule regulation, aims to shine the light on such documents by requiring consent posting on a public site for federally-funded clinical trials.

The goal is to increase transparency and accountability for creating docume nts that facilitate participant understanding.

The awardee is responsible for the posting of one consent form on a publicly available federal website within a specific time frame. The consent form must have been used to enroll subjects in order to satisfy this new provision. Click below for the UK ORI one-page guide for complying with the posting requirement.
