Yes. SMART IRB and the SMART IRB Agreement can be used to support and document a central IRB arrangement for one or multiple studies, such as a central IRB for an industry-funded trial or for a federally-funded clinical trials network or consortium. The Agreement provides that in such situations, any policies and procedures or terms of participation required by the funder, the network, or the designated central IRB, including those that affect the reliance relationship, will apply and will override any provisions of the Agreement with which they conflict. Any policies and procedures or terms of participation required by the funder, the network, or the designated central IRB must be communicated in writing to Relying Institutions.
