Key Notes

• The dates of the IEC Meetings are subject to change.
• Please note that study applications submitted before the submission deadlines may not necessarily be slotted in for the subsequent month’s meeting as to allow earlier studies submitted to be discussed first
• Based on our SOP, the review time of a new study from receipt of an application full dossier by the secretariat to the IEC Chair’s first decision is 60 working days.
• Please plan your study submissions based on the turnaround time for study applications.
