On the 1-2nd of March, EFA participated in the annual conference of the European Forum for Good Clinical Practice (EFGCP), “Faster and Safer Paths to New Treatments with Medicines and Medical Devices”. The European Forum for Good Clinical Practice is acting as a forum to bring patients, researchers, sponsors, competent authorities and ethics committees together to debate current topics and provide rational approaches. It is one of the most important European fora for multi stakeholder debate and this meeting was designed to help pharmaceuticals and devices research learn from each other’s histories, hear patient voices and understand this changing regulations.
The aim of the conference was to explore how medicines and devices can be developed speedily but safely for patient benefit with a sound evidence base within the current and changing regulatory European frameworks.
