  20. What Is the Role of a CAB in the Research Process? • National Community • Larger Community • Participant’s Family and Close Friends • Global Community • Surrounding Community Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  21. What Is a Community? • A community shares common: • Geography • Racial or ethnic makeup • Values, culture, beliefs and interests People can belong to many communities at the same time. Communities and the demographics of a target population are always changing. Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  22. Group Brainstorm and Discussion • Who is in YOUR community? • Why is it important to have different kinds of people in a community? Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  23. Purpose of CABs Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  24. What Is the History of CABs? • AIDS activists in the U.S. and Europe: Demanded that researchers and regulatory authorities move more quickly to find medications to fight HIV Looked for opportunities to review trial proposals Protested by letter-writing, and lobbying the U.S. Government they succeeded Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  25. What Is the History of CABs?(cont’d) This process resulted in the creation of CABs made up of non-scientists. These non-scientistsreview protocols, monitor trials, and help educate and inform the rest of the community. Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  26. Who Participates on a CAB? Volunteers with a broad range of backgrounds • Religious groups • Schools or universities • Media • Non-governmental organizations / community-based organizations Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  27. Who Participates on a CAB? (cont’d) Members often have an interest in HIV prevention and treatment Ideally 50% of the CAB’s members are from the target population of a site’s trials Some CAB members are paid, but usually they are not Over time, members can better understand the discussions and contribute to the conversations about the clinical trial Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  43. Why Is Worldwide HIV Research Important? HIV is transmitted by different routes, in different people, at different intervals, with different treatment options that lead to different outcomes No single organization has the resources to complete the needed HIV/AIDS research Understanding the Clinical Research Process and Principles of Clinical Research

  44. What Are theMillennium Development Goals (MDGs)? • The United Nations identified an action agenda for this millennium — eight millennium development goals. One of the MDGs focuses on HIV/AIDS. • It calls on the world community to halt and begin to reverse the spread of HIV by 2015.
