CLINICAL GENE TRANSFER SUBCOMMITTEE
OF THE INSTITUTIONAL BIOSAFETY COMMITTEE

The Clinical Gene Transfer Subcommittee (CGTS) of the Dartmouth Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) is a multidisciplinary committee charged with the review of clinical protocols involving gene transfer as defined in the NIH GUIDELINES FOR RESEARCH INVOLVING RECOMBINANT DNA MOLECULES (April 2002). This will include: (1) peer review of the scientific merit of each clinical gene transfer protocol; (2) review of the protocol for concerns to safety and (3) review to determine whether all appropriate regulatory requirements have been fulfilled prior to initiation of the protocol. The CGTS has the authority to approve, require modifications in, or disapprove all research activities that fall within its purview. This committee advises the IBC and the Institutional Review Board (IRB) on the science and safety of the proposed protocols.
