J-SUPPORT has introduced a protocol review committee (PRC) system that ensures the social validity of the study is reviewed by members of other J-SUPPORT groups and external reviewers who are not medical professionals. The PRC holds scientific advisory meetings as review meetings that focus first on whether the study can be completed (feasibility), and then, whether the study will have any effect on actual clinical practice after the study is completed (exit strategy). The review process not only scrutinizes the study but also provides advice on how to refine the study, as well as endeavors to encourage active participation of young researchers.

Review application deadline is 10 weeks before the review.

Review documents submission deadline is 8 weeks before the review.

To those wishing to have their research reviewed

If you would like to have your research reviewed by the scientific advisory committee, please contact J-SUPPORT first using the consultation application form.
