Session Chair(s)

Clinical Trials Act has a big negative impact on clinical trials in Japan, and intervention trials had decreased drastically. The regulations for clinical trials differ depending on the study details: the study objectives and the source of funding, etc. As for a multinational clinical trial, we have to conduct in compliance with ICH-GCP, not only domestic rules in Japan. Principal investigators and research professionals are often confused and burdened by the variety and complexity of such rules. Clinical Trials Act gave us even more devastate situation. In this session, focusing on the law amendment, we will share the current issues and expectation for amendment of Clinical Trials Act from their perspective: government, industry and academia. Furthermore, we will discuss appropriate regulations in the future in order to achieve both ensuring the confidence and activating clinical trials.
