Step 1
Complete the continuing review form. For protocols reviewed an approved on paper forms, the continuing review form in fillable PDF format can be found on the Forms & Templates page. For protocols reviewed and approved through the new online eProtocol system, the continuing review form is found online in the system.
Step 2
For paper forms, submit the completed continuing review report form and, if needed, any other supporting materials directly to the IRB for review at ORP@depaul.edu. For the online eProtocol forms, submit them through the system.
Step 3
If the IRB asks for revisions or additional information, prepare revised/additional materials and submit them to the IRB, along with a cover memo itemizing the changes/additions (for paper submissions) or online in the itemized comments in eProtocol and revise the online application as needed.
Step 4
Once you have appropriately addressed all of the IRBs concerns, the IRB will issue an approval memo, and you are authorized to continue your research past the current expiration date.
