	NIH Guide: NIH POLICY FOR DATA AND SAFETY MONITORING
		Although there are potential benefits to be derived from participation in clinical research, the IRBs and the NIH must ensure, to the extent possible, the safety of study participants and that they do not incur undue risk and that the risks versus benefits are continually reassessed throughout the study period.
		Oversight of monitoring must be done to ensure that data and safety monitoring plans are in place for all interventional trials, that the quality of these monitoring activities is appropriate to the trial(s), and that the IC has been informed of recommendations that emanate from monitoring activities.
		While short-term risk is usually slight, one must consider the long term effects of a study agent or achievement of significant safety or efficacy differences between the control and study groups for a masked study.

		The statements continue the commitment of the Agencies to respond to requests for business reviews or advisory opinions from the health care community no later than 90 days after all necessary information is received regarding any matter addressed in the statements, except requests relating to hospital mergers outside the antitrust safety zone and multiprovider networks.
		The safety zones use a few factors that are relatively easy to apply, to define a category of ventures for which the Agencies presume no anticompetitive harm, without examining competitive conditions in the particular case.
		The safety zones are limited to networks involving substantial financial risk sharing not because such risk sharing is a desired end in itself, but because it normally is a clear and reliable indicator that a physician network involves sufficient integration by its physician participants to achieve significant efficiencies.
