The Secret of Study Conduct Documentation to ensure a successful Audit: What the FDA Inspectors looks for

This FDA audit training will provide invaluable assistance to investigators and their staff in the regulatory/legal responsibilities and also the ethical considerations in pharmaceutical product (Drug or device) research involving human subjects. Data keeping for clinical research trials involving human subjects has to be as accurate and valid as possible. Does yours meet the mark?

Why Should You Attend:

Fact: The FDA inspects hundreds of clinical investigators each year to see if they are following regulations and their data is substantiated.

The regulations for clinical trials involving human subjects are strict, and for obvious reasons. The well being of the subjects must be guaranteed throughout, and the FDA should be able to verify from your data that this is the case. This is why the FDA guidelines for research involving human subjects demand that you leave a clear data trail. To quote from ICH E6 2.10, 'All clinical trial information should be recorded, handled, and stored in a way that allows its accurate reporting, interpretation, and verification.'

Every person on your investigative team must be schooled in the correct protocols for data handling, not just for the sake of the participants in your study but also in order to avoid being found non-compliant by the FDA. Your data must be accurate and substantiated every step of the way. This online training will show you how to make sure of that.

Areas Covered in the seminar:

• Why accurate data is essential to ensure the safety of study participants.
• The purpose of making sure that all data is accurate, legible, contemporaneous, original and attributable.
• The regulatory requirements for care of source documents.
• What 'To Do' with regard to data including corrections?
• What to 'Never Do' with regard to data handling.
• What is the best time to review 'Raw Data'.
• What documents does the FDA review - always.
• Learn who is responsible for 'Data Management'.
