iRECIST training has been a recommended component of immuno-oncology (IO) protocol training documentation in the CCTG Site Training Utility (STU) since 2017. We have recently updated the iRECIST training slides in STU and as of Thursday July 18, 2019, documentation of iRECIST training is now mandatory for Qualified Investigators (QI) participating on new IO trials. In addition to new studies, some recently opened/actively accruing/planned studies will also require documentation of this training for the QI. These trials are: HN9, I227, I238 and I239 (planned).
