NIHR Research Delivery Network (RDN) Portfolio Terms and Conditions update

Date: 24 September 2024

The DHSC Terms and Conditions for NIHR CRN support (T&Cs) set out the ongoing requirements of the sponsor once a study is accepted onto the NIHR RDN (Research Delivery Network) portfolio.

One of the essential requirements is to update the Study Engagement Tool and provide updates for all RDN portfolio studies.

For sponsors that do not comply with the T&Cs (following two reminders), RDN support will be withdrawn. This means that the study will no longer be eligible for any NIHR RDN support or services, including support costs, and Excess Treatment Costs for studies where these are provided by integrated care boards (ICBs).

The NIHR therefore encourage sponsors to regularly monitor and update the RDN of study milestones by updating the sponsor engagement tool in a timely and efficient manner.
