  • 1.  3674 form Section 9, B or C for FIH IND

    Posted 05-Oct-2022 18:51
    Hello all,

    For phase I IND submission to the FDA, should one check box B or box C for the 3674 form section 9.

    Box A is checked if the clinical trial is not subject to the registration requirements
    Box B is checked if the registration requirements do not apply at the time of the submission of the IND
    Box C is checked if the study has been registered

    Thank you.

    Hello Hua,

    Generally speaking, it is required that applicable clinical trials be registered within 21 days of the first patient enrollment.  Here is a checklist to determine if your study is an "applicable" clinical trial requiring registration. Technically, phase I trials are not required to be registered (so Box A would technically be correct).  However, I highly recommend registering the phase I trial for many reasons including transparency, patient recruitment, etc. Additionally, ICMJE standards are that a trial must be registered in order to be considered for publication (see their website here).  I would note that ICMJE timing requirements for registration are more stringent than CT.gov; they require registration at or before the first patient enrollment.

    I have found the ClinicalTrials.gov FAQ page to be very helpful (see FAQ page here).
