Program Description
This program will address challenges that labs face related to the long-term storage of cryopreserved products and inventory management. Examples of consent documents will be discussed and how expectations for length of storage has changed over the past 10-15 years. Case studies will be used to demonstrate challenging situations that the lab/storage program may face and options to consider while evaluating a product for discard.

Learning Objectives
After participating in this educational activity, participants should be able to:

• Identify key elements of a strong consent document.
• List common challenges faced by Cellular Therapy storage programs when evaluating products for discard.
• Describe how changing clinical and industry expectations impact storage terms and approval for discard.
