Common use of Duration and Nature of Ceded Review Clause in Contracts

Duration and Nature of Ceded Review. When review of Research is ceded under this Agreement, the Research will remain under the oversight authority of the Reviewing IRB determined/selected pursuant to Section 3 hereof for as long as IRB review is required for the particular Research (presuming that participation of the Reviewing IRB and Relying Institution in the Agreement has not terminated pursuant to Section 7), except in the circumstance where a Relying Institution determines in its sole discretion that it must withdraw the Research from Ceded Review (in which case it may do so immediately). The Relying Institution acknowledges and agrees that its withdrawal of Research from Ceded Review may be subject to other requirements or may affect its continued involvement in the Research pursuant to or as a result of other laws, regulations, funding policies, or agreements, or other external sources apart from this Agreement, and that in no event shall a Reviewing IRB or Reviewing IRB Institution be responsible for such requirements or consequences. In cases where the Relying Institution will continue with the Research, the Reviewing IRB and Relying Institution will work together to facilitate the transfer of IRB oversight to another IRB with the goals of ensuring the continued protection of human subjects and of limiting the potential disruption to the Research.
