In the context of recruitment materials, which statement best describes what must be reviewed by the IRB/IEC?

The main thing being tested is how recruitment materials are reviewed to protect potential participants. The IRB/IEC evaluates both what is said in advertisements used to recruit and the information about how the recruitment will be conducted. This dual focus ensures that potential participants receive accurate, clear, and non-coercive information about the study, who is eligible, what participation involves, potential risks and benefits, and any compensation, without overstating benefits or misrepresenting the trial. Reviewing the recruitment process details helps confirm that how people are approached, screened, and invited to participate is fair and voluntary, and that the materials align with the study protocol and consent process. Other items like the trial budget or site safety procedures aren’t the focus of recruitment-material review.
