Institutional Ethics Committee is constituted principally for the
purpose of checking whether proposals submitted for research
(Ph.D./M.D./ M.S/ D.M/ M.Ch) degree of the institute meet
established guidelines as also all research proposals submitted
require clearance from the Ethics Committee of the Institute. All
the research projects incorporate a section titled “Ethical
justification”, for undertaking proposed investigative
procedure/therapeutic intervention. Ethics Committee scrutinizes
and suggests suitable modifications.
All
clinical trials of new drugs, new actions of existing drugs, and
new invasive clinical procedures come under the purview of this
Committee. This committee ensures actual implementation of the
ethical guidelines and its specific recommendations during conduct
of clinical studies. The clearance from committee is necessary
even for projects that have been cleared by other
institutions/agencies. For research on living animals, the
Committee considers the possible clinical potential or substantial
advance in knowledge from the proposed animal experiments.
