Human Research Protection Program
Be The Match BioTherapies is an extension of The National Marrow Donor Program® (NMDP)/Be The Match®. The NMDP/Be The Match Institutional Review Board (IRB) protects the rights and welfare of individuals who participate in research, including unrelated volunteer donors listed on the Be the Match Registry® and donors and recipients participating in research sponsored by the CIBMTR® (Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research®) or the Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network® (BMT CTN).
Our human research protection program complies with all federal regulations pertaining to human research protections and adheres to the ethical principles of the Belmont Report: Ethical Principles and Guidelines for the Protection of Human Subjects of Research. The NMDP IRB is registered with the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Human Research Protections (Registration # IRB00001253) and has an approved Federalwide Assurance (FWA00000441).
