* Judge the document to be fit for the next phase (Technical Committee''')
* Authors/Editor of the Profile request review for approval once they feel work on the current stage has been completed
** Schedule review meeting(s) as needed with open committee
* Biomarker Committee assigns/recruits reviewers for Profile sections
** Submit document 1 week before review meeting
** Ideally each section should be covered by more than one reviewer
** Line-by-line review/walkthrough led by editor
** Reviewing assignments can be divided up any way that is convenient
** Resolve questions/comments/clarifications
** It doesn't hurt to have some reviewers read through the profile in its entirety (finds inconsistencies/gaps)
