Objectives
 GCP And Training Requirements (GCP, GMP And GLP)
 Role And Responsibilities
 Sponsor

 Subject Binder
 Central Image Binder
 Reporting And Training
Good Clinical Practice is…
… an international ethical and scientific quality
standard for designing, conducting, recording, and
reporting trials that involve the participation of
human subjects. Compliance with this standard
provides public assurance that the rights, safety and
well being of trial subjects are protected….
The guidance was developed with consideration of the
current good clinical practices of the European
Union, Japan, and the United States, as well as those
of Australia, Canada, the Nordic countries and the
World Health Organization (WHO).
