How
All requests for review must be submitted to FACTS through MediTract (FACTS).
When you submit your contract through MediTract, you will be asked to indicate who will be negotiating the budget. If the study team chooses to negotiate the budget, the FACTS office will reach out to the study team to obtain the final negotiated budget.
When
Contract negotiation should occur concurrently with budget negotiations and IRB review.
Fees
Fees will be charged for the review of all industry funded clinical trial agreements including amendments. For more information, refer to 2022 FACTS and Institutional Fee Schedule/Industry Sponsored Clinical Trials .
