This guide contains a fundamental overview of the administrative management involved in conducting a clinical trial at Dartmouth. The conduct of a clinical trial involves multiple layers of review and numerous entities throughout the institution. Dartmouth strives to ensure that all clinical trials are conducted according to federal and state regulations and ethical principles.
There are two offices with institutional authority to negotiate and sign Clinical Trial Agreements. The Office of Sponsored Projects at Dartmouth College and The Hitchcock Foundation at the Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinic. A PI does not have the institutional authority to sign a Clinical Trial Agreement on behalf of the Hitchcock Clinic or Dartmouth College.
Please note: Due to federal regulations, all federally funded clinical trials must be managed by the Office of Sponsored Projects.
