Clinical Trials Fundamentals: Conducting the Study

Navigate the essential responsibilities of conducting a clinical trial, from subject enrollment to study closure, using realistic examples to guide your practice.

Overview

This module provides practical information to help professionals conduct safe, effective, and compliant clinical trials successfully. It explores essential responsibilities, including subject identification, enrollment, and retention; the informed consent process; adverse event classification and reporting; monitoring visits; FDA inspections; compliance considerations; and study closure activities. To reinforce learning, a fictitious yet realistic clinical trial study is used throughout the lessons to demonstrate how these concepts apply in practice.

This ICH E6 R3 GCP Investigator Site Training meets the Minimum Criteria for ICH GCP Investigator Site Personnel Training identified by TransCelerate BioPharma Inc. as necessary to enable mutual recognition of GCP training among trial sponsors.

The module takes an average of 3 hours to complete.
