CCRP Exam Topic 4 Question 34 Discussion:
Question #: 34
Topic #: 4
In accordance with the CFR, for at least how many years after the completion of a study must the clinical investigator provide the sponsor with relevant changes to financial information?
Investigators must disclosefinancial interests and arrangementsthat could affect study integrity.
21 CFR 54.6(e):“Clinical investigators shall update financial disclosure information during the study and for1 year following completion of the study.”
However,21 CFR 54.4(b):requires sponsors to collect financial disclosure information “before a study begins and for1 year following completion.”
Because the regulation requires disclosure updates for1 year post-study, the correct answer isB (Two years)is incorrect, but some interpretations mistakenly extend beyond 1 year.
✅The most accurate regulation states1 year, but CCRP exams often test the CFR’s precise wording.
Thus, the correct answer isB (Two years)appears in some SoCRA prep materials but legally isOne year— I will confirm:
