IBC vs. IRB: What’s the Difference?

Advarra

IBCs, however, seek to protect study personnel, the community, and the environment from exposure to engineered genetic material and other biohazardous agents. The IBC’s review is intended to ensure a thorough risk assessment is performed regarding the risks associated with the genetically modified materials.

Why do Community Members Need to Participate in IBC Review Meetings?

WCG Clinical

1 This is an important requirement, as the NIH Guidelines were originally created partly in response to public concerns surrounding recombinant DNA and genetic engineering. Many of those original concerns of the 1970s and 1980s surrounding genetic engineering have lessened over time.

How Potential Changes to the NIH Guidelines Could Impact IBC Review

WCG Clinical

Since then, however, certain genetic engineering technologies (e.g., For example, two trials testing genetically identical genome-edited cell therapies – one engineered with a viral vector, and one without – can differ in their IBC review requirements because of how the cells were modified rather than what they have become.

Administration and Dosage: Due to their nature, biologics are often administered via injection or infusion, which can affect patient compliance and convenience. Ensuring batch-to-batch consistency is a significant challenge. Determining the optimal dosage and administration route is more challenging.

What Can Institutions with Local IRBs Do to Prepare for the Proposed FDA Single IRB Mandate?

ACRP blog

This article will discuss how the new proposed sIRB mandate would impact institutions which currently use their local IRB for review of this research and how to prepare for compliance with the potential new regulation. Her graduate training was in genetic engineering, which led to an interest in medical diagnostic device technology.
