Give Your Input on Impact of EU Clinical Trials Directive

Brussels, Belgium-June 9, 2008-ICREL is a one-year EU FP7 project, coordinated by EFGCP with further consortium members being EORTC under leadership of Denis Lacombe, ECRIN under leadership of Jacques Demotes, The Ethics Committee of the University of Vienna under leadership of Christiane Druml, and Hospital Clinic I de Barcelona under leadership of Xavier Carné. The project aims at analyzing the impact of the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC on clinical research in Europe.

ICREL has just launched a survey, giving sampled-out stakeholders (commercial and non-commercial sponsors, ethics committees, and competent authorities) the opportunity to have their experiences taken into account. As the results of this survey will form the basis for the European Commission Directorate Entreprise for their decisions on areas to be changed in the new clinical trials legislation it is very important that we collect as much information as possible. WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!!!!

Please go to www.eortc.be/icrel and complete the questionnaire suitable for your type of organization.
