Clinical protocol amendment approval workflow

This clinical protocol amendment approval workflow maps the controlled release of a revised study protocol. The process begins with quality review, returns incomplete packages for correction, and routes subject-risk changes to an IRB or ethics review. Medical review and any required regulatory filing occur before the approved version is released to trial sites.
