All cancer clinical trials at the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center at The University of Iowa are reviewed by the Protocol Review and Monitoring Committee (PRMC). No protocol may have access to Cancer Center shared resources without full approval of the committee. All cancer intramural studies, industry trials, or cooperative group studies are required to be sanctioned by the PRMC.

The purpose of the review is:

  • To conduct a scientific review of all proposed and ongoing institutional cancer clinical research
  • To monitor all clinical cancer research protocols for sufficient progress
  • To determinate those cancer protocols that are not achieving goals in a reasonable time frame
  • To determine prioritization of patient referrals to competing protocols or if you have any questions regarding the Committee, please contact Gary Rick, Protocol Administrator, 319-353-7846.

To ensure efficient use of Cancer Center resources for clinical trials, all protocols submitted to the PRMC must also be reviewed and approved by the appropriate Multidisciplinary Oncology Group (MOG). This review may occur before, or in parallel with the PRMC review. However, final approval by the PRMC will be contingent upon approval by the MOG ( MOGs and Clinical Liaisons). To verify approval, the following form should be completed and submitted to the PRMC:
