Investigational Drug Service

For the Investigational Drug Service, pharmacists provide consultative services in the areas of study design, protocol evaluation, study feasibility, and implementation. As members of the Institutional Review Board (IRB) at Fletcher Allen, they review proposed research protocols to ensure compliance with Good Clinical Practice Guidelines and compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, IRB requirements, and Fletcher Allen policies. Working with the principal investigators, they provide oversight for the control, administration, and disposition of investigational agents at all locations within the organization.
