Institutional Review Board (IRB) and contract processing fees

CONTRACT PROCESSING FEE: $500

All Contracts for research must be approved by the Dean after review by the Associate General Counsel. The proposed industry contract should be forwarded to the Clinical Trials Contract Coordinator (electronically with all necessary information as outlined in the Clinical Trial Contracting Guidelines and Checklist). The contract processing fee is established to ensure that all regulatory requirements are met for study contracts and will be charged to each study. Each clinical trial should include a contract processing fee in the budget submission to the industry sponsor. Investigator-initiated studies do not include a contract processing fee.

IRB fees can be found on the SIU Medicine IRB webpage.
