Do You Have Appropriate Oversight? Understanding the Role of DSMBs

Often required by regulators, independent data monitoring committees (DMCs), or data safety monitoring boards (DSMBs), are increasingly best practice to oversee trial data and provide unbiased opinions to keep participants safe.

Join this webinar to better understand the role and function of independent DSMBs, from charter creation through interim data analysis. Plus, experts cover how U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and EU European Medicines Agency (EMA) guidelines require DSMBs as part of the trial’s overall data and safety monitoring plan.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define the basic FDA and EMA guideline requirements governing when to employ DSMBs in clinical trials
  • Outline key takeaways to prepare your research program to engage collaboratively with an independent DSMB
  • Explain the role of the DSMB and how their oversight is different than institutional review board (IRB)
  • Summarize the difference, or lack thereof, between the terms DMC and DSMB
