[S17] Sharing Individual Participant Data (IPD) from Clinical Trials and Personal Information Protection
Session Chair(s)
Tomoko Kato

Sanofi K.K., Japan
Sharing IPD from clinical trials is being promoted to ensure transparency in clinical trials and to improve public health. At the same time, data providers are challenged to safeguard participant privacy in compliance with data privacy legal requirements, and some data users are concerned that anonymized data will provide less utility. This session will discuss both the challenges and benefits of promoting the sharing of IPD such as, for example, a mechanism by which pharmaceutical companies can mutually use IPD in the pre-competitive phase. We will also discuss legal restrictions on personal information protection and the appropriate balance between data utility and privacy in sharing IPD.
