What is ICH GCP?
• A quality standard for the design,
conduct, performance, monitoring,
auditing, recording analyses and
reporting of clinical trials that provides
assurance that the data and reported
results are credible and accurate, and
that the rights, integrity and
confidentiality of the subjects are
protected.
• The ICH (International Conference
on Harmonization) develops standards on
the elaboration and presentation
of data so they are accepted worldwide (US, EU, JP).

ICH GCP Principles
1. Clinical trials should be conducted in accordance with the
ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration
of Helsinki, and that are consistent with GCP and the
applicable regulatory requirement(s).
2. Before a trial is initiated, foreseeable risks and
inconveniences should be weighed against the anticipated
benefit for the individual trial subject and society. A trial
should be initiated and continued only if the anticipated
benefits justify the risks.
3. The rights, safety, and well-being of the trial subjects are
the most important considerations and should prevail
over interests of science and society.

GVe
ICH GCP Principles (2)
4. The available nonclinical and clinical information on an
investigational product should be adequate to support
the proposed clinical trial.
5. Clinical trials should be scientifically sound, and describe
in a clear, detailed protocol.
6. A trial should be conducted in compliance with the
protocol that has received prior institutional review board
(IRB)/independent ethics committee (IEC)
approval/favourable opinion.
Slide No. 17 • Basic GCP Facts • Tuesday, 23 May 2017

ICH GCP Principles (3)
7. The medical care given to, and medical decisions made
on behalf of, subjects should always be the responsibility
of a qualified physician or, when appropriate, of a
qualified dentist.
8. Each individual involved in conducting a trial should be
qualified by education, training, and experience to
perform his or her respective task(s).
9. Freely given informed consent should be obtained from
every subject prior to clinical trial participation.
10. All clinical trial information should be recorded, handled,
and stored in a way that allows its accurate reporting,
interpretation and verification.
Slide No. 18 • Basic GCP Facts • Tuesday, 23 May 2017
•
GVe
ICH GCP Principles (4)
11. The confidentiality of records that could identify subjects
should be protected,respecting the privacy and
confidentiality rules in accordance with the applicable
regulatory requirement(s).
12. Investigational products should be manufactured,
handled, and stored in accordance with applicable good
manufacturing practice (GMP). They should be used in
accordance with the approved protocol.
13. Systems with procedures that assure the quality of every
aspect of the trial should be implemented.

Good Clinical Practice – Why?
• ICH GCP is a set of ethical and scientific
quality requirements
• to protect the rights, safety, & well-
being of trial subjects
• to guarantee reliability of data capture
& credibility of study results
