Masterclass: Ensuring Drug Accountability in Clinical Trials

Masterclass: Ensuring Drug Accountability in Clinical Trials

Maintain Compliance and Data Integrity Through Effective Drug Management

In clinical trials, drug accountability is crucial for ensuring participant safety, maintaining data integrity, and complying with regulatory standards. Proper management of investigational products (IPs) involves meticulous tracking of their receipt, storage, dispensing, and disposal. Regulatory agencies, including the TGA (Australia) and FDA (USA), emphasise the importance of accurate drug accountability records, as deficiencies can lead to significant compliance issues.

This 2-hour interactive masterclass offers a comprehensive guide to implementing robust drug accountability practices, ensuring your clinical trials adhere to Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines and withstand regulatory scrutiny.
