Recipient CPI
Congratulations to our Domestic Centers who completed another successful Recipient CPI trimester. We had 97% in Good Standing for trimester ending December 31, 2019! Thank you for all your hard work! Everyone should have received their CPI Memo outlining their status.
US Centers CPI Requirements
As a reminder, the CIBMTR Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) program monitors and tracks the submission of required data by network transplant centers for HCT and Cellular Therapy (CT) Infusions. Reporting cell therapy infusions to CIBMTR remains voluntary at this time. However, IF you choose to report CT infusions, THEN form completion will be held to CPI.
On a trimester basis (January, May, and September), centers are reviewed and held accountable for meeting CPI standards for Allogeneic Related, Allogeneic Unrelated, Autologous, and Cellular Therapy (CT) infusions. To be compliant with CPI standards, there are three requirements:
-
Having current IRB documents (renewal letters and consents) on file with NMDP
-
Meeting the requirements of consecutive reporting of hematopoietic cell transplants (HCT) which includes centers submitting their complete list, registering CRIDs for any unregistered patients, resolving invalid CRIDs that do not exist in FormsNet3℠ (FN3), and resolving data discrepancies (i.e. mismatches) that were found between center-provided lists and FN3
-
Form completion of at least 90% of the required forms for four product types at each of three time periods as well as CT forms (January 1 – April 30th, May 1 – August 31st, September 1 – December 31st), as applicable
● Allogeneic Related form completion - All three time periods
● Allogeneic Unrelated form completion
- All three time periods
● Autologous form completion
- All three time periods
● Cellular Therapy form completion
- All three time periods
Further details can be found in the Data Management Guide.
US Centers CTA Update
Please look for the 2020 CTA memo outlining the CTA portion of CPI the week of January 20th, 2020.
US Centers IRB Update
CIBMTR will be implementing a change to the IRB process for management of centers’ Research Database protocol and informed consent forms. Details of this change will be communicated to all network centers in early February 2020. The communication at that time will highlight key process and staffing changes. As a reminder, having current IRB documents (renewal letters, protocols, and consents) on file with CIBMTR is part of CPI requirements. Your center’s current IRB expiration date can be found on your weekly CPI summary report.
International CPI
CIBMTR is pleased to announce the CPI program has now expanded to Non-U.S. centers. Phase 1 includes a comprehensive implementation plan for pilot centers, with requirements beginning July 1, 2020. These pilot centers are located in Australia, New Zealand and Brazil. Phases 2 and 3 will be communicated in Spring 2020. We look forward to a forming a strong and successful partnership.
