The Investigational New Drug and Device Support Program maintains institutional history of all IND and IDE submissions to the FDA. It is the responsibility of the sponsor to provide all correspondence with the FDA to the IND/IDE Support Office to maintain the institutional file.

The IND/IDE Support Office also assists with study start up, maintenance, and close out including:

  • FDA submission document review
  • FDA submission document completion
  • Guidance on communicating with the FDA
  • Assistance with package submission to the FDA
  • Reminders of upcoming annual reports
  • Guidance on amendment submission requirements

The IND/IDE Support Office will provide support for correspondence with the FDA, and as the holder of the institutional records for FDA correspondence, sponsors and study teams are required to provide the IND/IDE Support Office with all FDA correspondence documentation. This includes reporting requirements such as annual reports, protocol deviations (amendments, SAEs, etc.) and study close out.

As the IND or IDE Sponsor, you are responsible for reporting the following information to the FDA: ­

  • Protocol changes
  • Updates in information contained on the Form FDA 1572 or Investigator Agreement (i.e. changes to the study team or sites/satellites of the investigation)
  • Updates in safety information about the drug or device
  • Updates in manufacturing, controls, or results of tests conducted on the drug or device
  • Annual reports
  • Change in investigators or change in the Sponsor or Primary Point of Contact (PPOC) and/or address
  • Transfer of Obligations
  • Completion or termination of a trial (Clinical study report)
  • New trials under the IND or IDE
  • Closure of the IND or IDE
