If the IND is approved it will not appear on that site until, at the very minimum, the IRB is complete.



"A trial must be approved by a human subject review board and must conform to the regulations of the appropriate national health authorities, in order to be registered."

from CEO Caldwell
"As soon as we receive clearance from the FDA, we will finalize our investigators and sponsoring eye clinic or hospital and begin a process to gain IRB (Institutional Review Board) approval to conduct the trials at that particular site. Typically, that process takes 60-90 days depending on the institution’s internal protocol approval requirements.

What is the IRB?
The Institutional Review Board (IRB) is a committee established to review and approve research involving human subjects.
The primary purpose of the IRB is to protect the rights and welfare of the human subjects.
