On 31st January 2023, the Clinical Trial Regulation (CTR) 536/2014 came into force in the European Union (EU) and repealed the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC. With this Regulation, the EU harmonises the procedures for carrying out clinical trials across the EU states and  simplifies the clinical trial approval process through a Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

This course provides clinical research professionals in Sponsor and CRO organizations as well as investigational sites and study staff with an essential understanding of the CTR to help implement and comply with it.

The programme highlights the most important of these key requirements and how these are impacting all EU as well as non-EU sponsors conducting clinical trials in the EU.

My name is Dr. Vincent Baeyens PhD, I have more than 20 years of experience in running Clinical Trials in Global and mid-size Pharma and Biotech settings.

Quizzes and assignments are proposed along your journey to test your knowledge.
