Employees of the METc Bureau support the Medical Ethics Review Board. They guide the submission and review process but are not part of the decision itself.
All applications submitted for review to the METc are screened by employees of the METc Bureau for completeness. If necessary, the submittor/sponsor is contacted so any omissions are resolved. Only an application that is complete will be discussed by the METc. Sometimes, the review is put on hold until the application is complete and proper alterations are accepted.
The METc Bureau can advise the applicants on the required documents. The type of clinical trial determines which documents are required for review. More information on submission requirements can be found on the page Submission.
The METc Bureau can also assist with an application to the CCMO and provide information on the progress of the review proces.
