- Abstract
The article reports on the revisions being considered by the European Commission to the Clinical Trials Directive. Said directive, adopted in 2001 and enacted by all European Union member states in 2004, reportedly aimed to develop a harmonized framework for clinical research, improve patient safety and guidelines for ethics review and data recording. However, cancer organizations in Europe argue that the directive has caused specific problems for international trials. Proposals by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer are cited.
