Why Should You Attend:

A failed FDA investigator site inspection associated with findings of critical or major GCP noncompliance may result in 1) FDA refusal to accept the submission for consideration, 2) possible FDA enforcement actions against the Sponsor and Investigator, and 3) loss of millions of dollars spent and perhaps years of time to market. Pharma management knows this.

Yet, as the study is designed and progresses the objectives of pharma clinical trial management are not always those of the FDA. Program management decisions are often focused on budgets, timelines, and the completion of subjects and data acquisition. The CRO and investigators are likely to be focused on these same objectives. The absence of sponsor focus on, and the assurance of, GCP compliance is commonly the source of noncompliance generating decision. The absence of sponsor oversight or misdirected oversight has caused many failed programs, as illustrated by the case studies discussed in this webinar.

We will review two FDA published investigator site investigations and one unpublished case where sponsor program design and conduct decisions caused program failure associated with failed FDA investigator site inspections. We will identify which of the 21 most common FDA inspectional findings of investigator site noncompliance can be associated with the Sponsor decisions. Common CRO contract clauses that can cause investigator noncompliance will be identified. The FDA mandate for oversight of clinical research will be discussed as it applies to the pharma sponsor, CRO, and investigator perspectives. Finally, a case will be presented wherein FDA rejected an application by a US Pharma company for GCP noncompliance on an international trial funded by and “conducted” to NIH standards.

“Stuff” happens in the conduct of a clinical trial that cannot be anticipated. Noncompliance at the investigator site that is generated by sponsor decisions or management is entirely avoidable.
