Correct Answer

A. By using a specimen shipping log, confirming the specimens' arrival at the destination, and filing information in study binders.

Per SOP V-15, what is the first step required when collecting specimens for subject in a clinical trial?
- Check the protocol, procedure manual, or manual of operations to determine the types of specimens required.
- Check that the subject has a current signed informed consent on file.
- Schedule specimen collection with the appropriate lab
Correct Answer

A. Check that the subject has a current signed informed consent on file.

Explanation

The correct answer is to check that the subject has a current signed informed consent on file. This is the first step required when collecting specimens for a subject in a clinical trial because it ensures that the subject has given their voluntary and informed consent to participate in the trial and have their specimens collected. Without a signed informed consent, it would be unethical to proceed with specimen collection. Checking the protocol, procedure manual, or manual of operations to determine the types of specimens required and scheduling specimen collection with the appropriate lab are important steps, but they can only be done after confirming that the subject has a current signed informed consent on file.
