The HSE, in partnership with the Irish Pharmaceutical Healthcare Association (IPHA) are delighted to announce the official launch of the Model Clinical Trial Agreement (CTA) for tripartite clinical trials that involve Contract Research Organisations (CROs). Marking International Clinical Trials Day, this significant development will improve the clinical trial landscape in Ireland further enabling patients to participate in cutting-edge health research.
This Model CTA, agreed by both the HSE and the IPHA, is designed for use between the Site, the CROs and the Sponsor. Following extensive review by CROs, IPHA member companies, the HSE, and other dedicated stakeholders, this standardized document ensures fairness and balance. The introduction of a single standard clinical trial agreement for Ireland will reduce delays and costs for hospitals and companies, increase efficiencies, and enable timelier setup of trials in Ireland, thereby significantly improving patient health outcomes.
Cllr Racheal Batten MA, LLB,Hdip,BL, APA, National Lead for Legal and Data Protection in Research, HSE R&D comments on this landmark agreement:
“This model CTA is the result of a close collaboration between the HSE and the IPHA, and it could not have been achieved without the support of Hilda O'Keeffe of Comyn Kelleher Tobin LLP . We would like to thank all of the contributors, especially the State Claims Agency and the ongoing support from the Department of Health - Ireland who helped to develop this agreement, sharing in our dedication to improving clinical trial infrastructure and improving health outcomes in Ireland. Clear evidence shows that patient participation in clinical trials leads to substantial health improvements, and this agreement will enhance patient access to life-saving interventions.”

🚨 Latest Update from EMA’s June 2024 Meeting 🚨
Today, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) held a crucial Management Board meeting and shared significant updates.
These developments are pivotal for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries as we continue to navigate the evolving landscape of medical research and drug development.
🚨 Key Highlights:
1. Update on the new fee regulation (Regulation 2024/568)
2. Progress on shortages: The voluntary solidarity mechanism for EU Member States, which was set up at the end of 2023, has already been used successfully to address shortages of three critical anti-cancer medicines.
3. Clinical trials in the EU: Implementing the Clinical Trials Regulation, including the Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS). Revised transparency rules will become applicable on 18 June 2024 with the launch of a new version of the CTIS public portal.
These updates underscore the EMA’s dedication to fostering a robust and responsive regulatory environment that supports medical innovation and patient safety.

158, 089 patient took part in a Phase IV clinical trial in 2023...
But why is Real-World Evidence so Important?
Phase IV clinical trials, also known as post-marketing surveillance studies, play a critical role in the ongoing evaluation of medical interventions after regulatory approval.
With increasing attention on Real-World Evidence (RWE) in the pharmaceutical industry, let's explore why RWE is essential:
🔍 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀:
Phase IV trials assess how interventions perform in diverse populations under real-world conditions, offering valuable data beyond controlled clinical trials.
🛡️ 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆:
These trials monitor safety profiles over extended periods, helping identify rare or long-term side effects that may arise with widespread use.
📈 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗨𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀:
Insights from Phase IV trials inform best practices, including dosages, administration methods, and potential interactions, refining treatment guidelines for better patient outcomes.
📋 𝗟𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀:
Findings can lead to updates in intervention labeling, ensuring healthcare professionals have the most accurate and current information, including warnings and dosage adjustments.
✅ 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
Regulatory authorities often require Phase IV trials as a condition for approval, ensuring ongoing compliance with standards and enhancing public safety.
Phase IV clinical trials are indispensable for continuously monitoring the safety, effectiveness, and optimal use of medical interventions in real-world settings. They improve patient care and guide healthcare decisions.
🤔 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
With the rise of RWE departments, even in smaller pharma companies, I foresee significant growth in Medical Affairs and Clinical Development.
