CTTI: Use of Central IRBs in Multi-Center Trials to Streamline Clinical Research
Multi-center clinical trials can provide high-quality, statistically-sound evidence to answer medical questions.

Typically, each participating center submits the study protocol to its institutional review board (IRB).
