Bio Spectrum
|October 2017
Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) signed an agreement recently with other global agencies to develop and implement policies within the next 12 months that require all trials they fund, co-fund, sponsor or support to be registered in a publicly available registry.
ICMR as a signatory to the statement agreed to monitor compliance with registration requirements and to endorse the development of systems to monitor results reporting. Most of these trials and their results will be accessible via WHO's International Clinical Trials Registry Platform which is a unique global database of clinical trials that compiles data from 17 registries around the world.
Dr Manbeena Chawla of BioSpectrum India spoke to Dr Soumya Swaminathan, Director General, ICMR & Secretary, Department of Health Research (DHR) about the measures taken by ICMR to improve the CROs space in the country.
