1 02/09/ :49 AM To b Eligible to be exempt from IRB Review: Marker Chromosome The KPSC IRB Vice Chair reviewed your summary listed in your dated 2/8/2012 at 2:57pm and agreed that the publication is now eligible to be exempt from IRB review. The statement, "5 of ten sequential marker chromosomes studied were found to be complex intra chromosomal rearrangements or derived from an acrocentric with non acrocentric euchromatin, is a permissible description and interpretation of actual findings. It is permissible for authors to include such conclusions in their publications. Please keep this in your record. 02/08/ :57 PM To Re: Determination of Your Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome We will be using a total of 5 cases with marker chromosomes. All 5, will be anonymous. The authorship per journal guidelines will be limited to the physicians within KP who provided the clinical information and two authors from an outside lab (Genedx) who performed array comparitive genomic hybridization (acgh).

2 3) Describe the genetic findings per test type and clinical outcome. 4. I will collate and write this paper and the clinicians who provided the clinical information are included along with an outside testing lab involved in performing one test (acgh) in the panel for all cases 5. Is one statement like " 5 of ten sequential marker chromosomes studied were found to be complex intra chromosomal rearrangements or derived from an acrocentric with non acrocentric euchromatin",permissable? ---02/08/ :48:53 PM--- Please revise your summary and submit to m 02/08/ :48 PM Subject Re: Determination of Your Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome Please revise your summary and submit to me. I will obtain the approval from our Vice Chair.

3 02/08/ :45 PM To Re: Determination of Your Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome Yes, that is what we will do /08/ :39:31 PM--- Both our IRB Chair and Vice Chair think that 02/08/ :39 PM Subject Re: Determination of Your Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome Both our IRB Chair and Vice Chair think that your project is a research project since two or three of the five individuals can be identified, thus needs an IRB application for IRB review. Are you willing to make all 5 cases anonymous so you don't have to go through the IRB application process? Please let me know your decision. Please

4 02/06/ :59 PM To Re: Determination of Your Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome We will be using a total of 5 cases with marker chromosomes. Among the 5, 3 or 2 will be anonymous and 2-3 will have clinical pictures, full clinical h/o and patient consent. The authorship per journal guidelines will be limited to the physicians within KP who provided the clinical information and two authors from an outside lab (Genedx) who performed array comparitive genomic hybridization (acgh). 3) Describe the genetic findings per test type and clinical outcome. 4.

10 Please note that six or more case studies are considered research as they may lead to generalizable knowledge. If you want your project to qualify for IRB exempt status, it has to be five (5) or less globally (including KP and non-kp patients). Once I receive your confirmation, I will send your request to our Privacy Rule Officer to get clearance on privacy rule requirement. 02/02/ :35 PM To Re: Fw: Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome I am inclined to present clinical identifiers on only 6 cases so that it qualify under for IRB exempt status. Thank you ---01/16/ :23:05 PM---Hi Thank you for providing additional informa 01/16/ :23 PM Isabel M Sanchez/CA/KAIPERM@Kaiperm Subject Fw: Exempt Request - Marker Chromosome

11 Hi Thank you for providing additional information on the project. Unfortunately, the described project does not meet the exempt requirement listed in our SOP-013 ((Notes 2 and 3 on P.8). In additional, six or more case studies are considered research as they may lead to generalizable knowledge. Attached for your use is a copy of the SCPMG IRB application and next steps to submit the study to the KPSC IRB. Please submit the attached Research Application along with the supporting documents listed below electronically to Isabel.M.Sanchez@kp.org 1) Copy of the Coversheet with signatures for the PI and Co-Investigators submitted as a pdf. document. 2) Area Research Chair, Chief of Service and Department Administrator approvals via (see page 2 of application for details). 3) CV(s) or Biographical Sketch (es) for all investigators. 4) Signed KPSC Programwide Conflict of Interest Attestations for all Investigators submitted as pdf documents (see page 13 of application). 5) Signed Investigator Assurance of Responsibility, required for PI only submitted as a pdf document (see pages of application). 6) Signed Policies and Regulations Agreement form, required for the PI only submitted as a pdf document (see page 14 of application). 7) Copy of your & other investigator(s)' NIH human subjects training and SOP-502 training certificates. 8) Electronic copy of the study consent form (if applicable). Please let me know if study subjects will be contacted prospectively and I will provide you a current template of the informed consent form. 9) RAMP PI Attestation and Risk Assessment Form is only required when KPSC data is shared with research collaborators outside of KP. A collaborator is an individual or entity who is not a KP workforce or physician and who participates in research with KPSC investigators. A collaborator is also a collaborator s contractors or vendors who provide data storage or services involving KP PHI such as a pharmaceutical or other research sponsor (see pages 23 & 24 of application for RAMP document). 10) Electronic copies of study supporting documentation as applicable to your study (i.e. Study

12 Protocol, Investigator's Brochure, Data Abstraction form, web internet questionnaire, study questionnaires, telephone script, etc).
