Answer: D
Explanation: ALCOA-C principles (Attributable, Legible, Contemporaneous, Original, Accurate, Complete) require that source data, such as raw lab values, are accurately captured and verifiable. Modifying the eCRF to include fields for raw troponin and ejection fraction values ensures that data entered is consistent with source documents, facilitating reconciliation and audit readiness. Relying solely on paper source documents risks data discrepancies, while revising the protocol is unnecessary and impractical. Manual calculations during data entry introduce errors and violate contemporaneous data capture.
Question: 1765
A Phase I trial site receives a monitor�s report indicating that a subject�s informed consent form (ICF) was signed after the first dose of the study drug, violating ICH E6 GCP. The principal investigator must ensure compliance with study requirements. What is the most appropriate corrective action?
1. Ignore the violation, as it affects only one subject
2. Exclude the subject from the trial and destroy the ICF
3. Obtain a retrospective consent and continue the trial
4. Report the violation to the IRB and retrain staff on consent procedures
Answer: D
Explanation: Signing the ICF after dosing is a serious GCP violation, as informed consent must precede trial procedures. Reporting to the IRB and retraining staff corrects the issue and prevents recurrence. Excluding the subject may be required but does not address systemic issues, retrospective consent is unethical, and ignoring the violation risks regulatory action.
Question: 1766
A site is conducting a multi-center trial with an oral IP requiring storage at 15�25�C. The pharmacy receives a shipment with a temperature excursion to 30�C for 8 hours, as indicated by the data logger. The sponsor�s stability data confirm the IP remains viable for up to 12 hours at 30�C. However, the pharmacy technician fails to document the excursion in the IP accountability log. As the Principal Investigator, how should you address this non-compliance to align with 21 CFR Part 312.62 and ICH GCP requirements?
1. Instruct the technician to retrospectively document the excursion and continue IP use.
2. Report the excursion to the IRB and request a protocol amendment.
3. Train the technician on documentation and use the IP, as it is still viable.
4. Quarantine the IP and halt dispensing until the sponsor approves its use.
Answer: D
Explanation: Per ICH GCP E6(R2) Section 4.6.3 and 21 CFR Part 312.62, investigators are responsible for maintaining accurate IP accountability records, including documentation of any storage deviations. The failure to document the excursion is a non-compliance issue, and while the IP remains viable per stability data, its use without proper documentation and sponsor approval risks regulatory non- compliance. Quarantining the IP and halting dispensing until the sponsor reviews the excursion ensures compliance and patient safety. Retrospective documentation without oversight could be viewed as falsification, training does not address the immediate issue, and IRB reporting is unnecessary unless the deviation impacts subject safety or trial conduct.
Question: 1767
In a phase III trial for a new diabetes drug, you develop a scheduling tool to Excellerate subject retention. The protocol requires weekly visits for the first 12 weeks. Which tool is most effective for ensuring
subjects adhere to this schedule?
1. A printed schedule card with fixed visit dates given at enrollment.
2. A manual phone call system where staff call subjects 1 week before each visit.
3. A shared online calendar with visit dates accessible to subjects.
4. An automated text messaging system with visit reminders and rescheduling options.
Answer: D
Explanation: An automated text messaging system provides timely reminders and rescheduling options, improving adherence and retention (ICH E6(R2) 5.8). Printed cards, online calendars, or manual calls are less flexible and more resource-intensive.
Question: 1768
In preparing for an upcoming audit, the principal investigator realizes that the facility's equipment has not been calibrated recently. What should be the most immediate action taken?
1. Schedule the necessary calibrations before the audit
2. Document the calibration issue and hope it will not be noticed
3. Inform the auditor that the equipment is functioning properly
4. Provide alternative equipment that is not calibrated
Answer: A
Explanation: Scheduling necessary calibrations before the audit is essential to ensure that all equipment is compliant and functioning properly, which reflects the site's commitment to quality.
