Withdraw or Discard

 Print

The PI or a PI proxy can discard or withdraw any initial application, modification, or continuing review that is in “Pre-Review” or “IRB Review.” The submitter of a report of new information (RNI) can discard or withdraw an RNI that is in “Pre-Review” or “IRB Review.”

Withdrawing an application:

• Is available to the PI and PI proxy (for initial applications, modifications, and continuing review) and to the submitter (for RNI) while the application is in “Pre-Review,” “Clarification Requested,” or “IRB Review” states
• Should only be used if the study team needs to make edits to an application before HSD’s review has begun
• Generally should not be used if HSD has already begun review (instead edits should be made as a part of the review process)
• Returns the application to “Pre-Submission” state and the My Inbox area so edits can be made
• Requires that the PI or PI Proxy resubmit to get the application back in HSD’s queue for review

Discarding an application:

• Is available to the PI and PI proxy (for initial applications, modifications, and continuing review) and to the submitter (for RNI) while the application is in “Pre-Review,” “Clarification Requested,” or “IRB Review” states
• Should be used if the application should not be reviewed by HSD
• Moves the application to the “Archived” area in Zipline
• Still allows the application to be copied using the Copy Submission activity
