Harvard Translational Imaging Consortium Meeting Minutes January 6, 2009
In Attendance (via phone):
1. PCIR reviews of protocols including an imaging component - not discussed on call this written report is from Randy and is open for comment. I will bring it up on our next call
- In December, the Consortium discussed the PCIR reviews of protocols including an imaging component and when the group should start fulfilling the role of reviewer for the PCIR. The Consortium agreed to offer to begin this role immediately.
- Towards this goal Randy spoke with Anne Klibanski and David Nathan regarding the Imaging Consortium's offer to immediately begin the role as the imaging review arm of the PCIR.
- Anne provided the following response to our offer:
- The process of setting up the new review committee for PCIR access has been a lengthy one.
Where is stands now is that the committee members are named- invitations will be going out in January and Jules Dienstag is the overall Chair. Review documents & forms are finalized.
- Regulatory has given the OK as to sharing of protocols across institutions and all reviews will be asked to sign a conflict of interest form.
- We are waiting on selection of the final vendor for the review based application- there are 2 finalists and meetings are taking place this week to make the final edition. Bioinformatics under Doug McFadden and Zak have put considerable resources towards this. As you know- all imaging protocols will be reviewed by the imaging group.
- The benefit will be an expanded pool of qualified reviewers and an end to the perpetual quest for reviews in an area.
- Michelle Beck at BI is the AD coordinating the process.
- The bottom line for us in the Imaging Consortium is that for now- if your site has an imaging protocol for Catalyst review within that you want to use our Consortium to review on an ad hoc basis until this is up and running that's fine. But we have to wait until the overall PCIR review process is ready before formalizing this. They hope to roll this out within a few months. I (Randy) have one protocol that I will be reviewing in the next week and I will post the materials for this group to review and use as a focus to develop our own ideas for how to do these reviews.
