SYLOGENT SPONSORS EXL 5TH CLINICAL DATA DISCLOSURE CONFERENCE

January 12-13, Washington, DC

Beginning in 2007, the Food and Drug Administration Act (FDAAA) required drug and device companies to register their investigational studies in clinical trial databases. FDAAA stated that Clinicaltrials.gov was the repository that must be used and required the registration of new clinical studies and the disclosure of results for completed studies. The principle behind clinical trial reporting is to increase transparency into the drug and device development process, and by doing so, alleviate any doubts the public may have about the conduct of clinical trials, and safety of drug and device companies’ products.

In recent years, the industry has encouraged greater transparency in the drug and device development process. New laws and guidances from regulatory agencies and health organizations require that drug and device companies provide transparency into their clinical studies. Clinical disclosure is becoming increasingly crucial and is a necessity for companies to understand and comply.

We hope you can join us for this valuable educational and networking opportunity.

Both are integral to ensuring that medical publication professionals can continue to contribute to the dissemination of the results of clinical trials with accuracy, transparency, and integrity.

To address these issues, this year’s plenary sessions will explore such topics as the impact of guidelines and regulations, including GPP-2; ISMPP’s advocacy activities; and insights of journal editors.
