Sponsor approval of a protocol [GxP / QC / QA]
Dear Debbie,
Why not ? The investigator and the sponsor should both sign the protocol, but there is no order specified in GCP. I would even say that in Phase II - IV studies the sponsor usually signs before the investigators. The situation is often different in BE trials when the protocol is written by a CRO and not directly by the sponsor, but I am not aware of any restriction in GCP.

❝ can a sponsor approve a protocol before investigators approval (principal,
❝ clinical investigator etc.)?
