Abstract:
Federally funded research involving inmates in US correctional facilities requires the approval of the Office for Protection from Research Risks (now called the Office for Human Research Protections [OHRP] and located in the Office of the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services). Trials that are carried out by pharmaceutical companies (not federally funded) fall under the jurisdiction of the FDA. This article reviews OHRP and FDA guidelines relevant to the conduct of HIV/AIDS clinical trials in correctional settings.
