What is GCP?
Good Clinical Practice
Refers to
Good Clinical (Research) Practice
GCP (GOOD CLINICAL PRACTICE) is a
standard for the design, conduct,
performance, monitoring auditing,
recording, analyses, & reporting of
clinical trial that provides assurance
that the data and reported result are
credible and accurate and the rights
integrity, and confidentiality of trial
subjects are protected.
OBJECTIVEIt ensure that the studies are scientifically and ethically sound and that the clinical properties of the pharmaceutical substances under investigation are properly documented.
The guidelines seek to establish two cardinal principles:1. protection of the rights of human subjects and 2.authenticity of biomedical data generated.
•These guidelines have been evolved with consideration of WHO, ICH, USFDA and European GCP guidelines as well as the Ethical Guidelines for Biomedical research on Human Subjects issued by the Indian Council of Medical Research •The objective of this ICH GCP Guideline is to provide a unified standard for European Union (EU), Japan and the United States to facilitate the mutual acceptance of clinical data by the regulatory authorities in these jurisdictions.

The Concept of Good Clinical Practice
Tuskegee trials - 1930s German prisoners trials - 1940s Thalidomide Disaster – 1960s Sulfanilamide disaster of 1937
Why GCP?
Tuskeegee Trial (Alabama, U.S.A., 1932-1972) > 600 men with syphilis
50% randomized to treatment 50% randomized to NO TREATMENT
◦Result: Untreated patients fared poorly A significant number of patients died
No information given to patients; no permission was sought to withhold treatment; no clear endpoints.
Outcome: Litigation, financial settlements
Why GCP? Case #1
German prisoner research trials (1940’s) Objectives of various trials:
◦ Effect of cold, heat, chemicals on men, women and children
◦ “Time to death” testing in response to stressors in healthy “volunteers”
◦ Organ transplant experiments on healthy “volunteers” Any information given (some?) is irrelevant because
prisoners were forced to participate Outcome:
◦ 25 German scientists taken to court, 7 acquitted, 9 imprisoned, 9 given death sentence
◦ Nuremberg Code of 1947
Why GCP? Case #2
In 1962 , thalidomide, a sleeping pill developed & widely used abroad, was being studied for used in U.S.
William S.Merrell company of Cincinnati was using drug investigationally
Dr. Frances Kelsey at the FDA delayed approval of the NDA by asking the sponsor for more information about neuritis as a possible side effect
Thalidomide disaster of 1962
However, even though the NDA was withdrawn, the FDA discovered that 2.5 million tablets of thalidomide were distributed to 1,270 U.S. physicians as samples
200,000 American patients received thalidomide By the mid-1960s, 10,000 birth defects occurred
worldwide approximately 10,000 children were born with severe
malformities, including phocomelia, because their mothers had taken thalidomide during pregnancy
This resulted in Kefauver-Harris Amendment of 1962,which address the issue of effectiveness and safety
Sulfanilamide drug used to treat a staphylococcal infection. drug shown dramatic curative effect & have been used for sometime in tablet & powdered form, but in southern estate it demand as liquid form
Watkins experimented & found that Sulfanilamide dissolve in diethylene glycol
New formulation had not been tested for toxicity
Sulfanilamide disaster of 1937
Catalyst Event Sulfanilamide Tragedy
Nazi Physicians Trial
Thalidomide Tragedy
Syphilis Study
Unethical Research Events
Regulatory Milestone
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
Nuremberg Code
Kefauver-Harris Amendments
National Research Act
Untested AIDS Vaccine in Human Trials. ◦Good Clinical Practice Journal 6(3):5-6, 1999
Case background:◦Dr. Ishwar Gilada, Indian Health Organization◦Administered untested vaccine to 10 HIV-
positive patients (Manisyl, a bovine immunodeficiency virus vaccine)
◦No permission sought from DCGI◦Patient took case to court
Scientific Misconduct: India
History – the regulation were originally concerned with “ Quality, Identity & purity” of product not with efficacy & safety of drug substance /product
The regulation of GCP start after some dangerous event occur
Evolution of Regulation of GCP
1. Event occur-when more than 100 children die after taking strep-elixir (sulfanilamide & diethylene glycol)
Reaction of event -1938 Federal Food Drug & cosmetic Act required that drug to be tested for safety
2. Event –between 1950-1960 thousand of children born with Phocomelia (seal limbs) when taken by a pregnant women during pregnancy
Reaction of event- the kefauver Harris amendment of 1962 passed by U.S. congress. It include
Evidence of efficacy of drug before approval Evidence of safety before testing in human Give protection to human in research
It all began when….
The rights, safety,& wellbeing of trial patient are most important
The trial should be conducted with the ethical principle of Declaration of Helsinki and consistent with GCP & regulatory environment
Clinical trial should be scientifically sound & describe in a clear detail protocol
The risk of patient should be less &benefit should be more
Principles of GCP
All clinical trail information should be recorded handled & stored in way that allow its accurate reporting interpretation verification
Medical care of patient should be taken by qualified physician
Each individual involved in a clinical trial should be qualified by education training & experience
Before the start of clinical trial participation informed consent of every patient is necessary
Trial must be conducted to protocol that has received prior approval of an IRB/IEC
Principles of GCP
1. Federal Food & Drugs act, 19062. Sulfanilamide Disaster, 19373. Food, Drug & Cosmetic act, 19384. The Nuremberg Code, 19485. Durham Humphrey Amendment, 19516. Thalidomide Disaster, 19517. Kefauver Harris Amendment 19628. Declaration of Helsinki, 19649. Medical Device Amendment, 197610. Good clinical practice (1980s1990s) 11. ICH-GCP, 1997
The Milestones in Evolution of GCP
Medical research must.. Conform to generally accepted scientific principles & be
based on thorough knowledge of scientific literature Caution should be exercised in the conduct of research that
may affect the environment Welfare of the animals must be respected Importance of the objective should outweigh 5risks & burden
to subjects Be described in a protocol Be considered by an ethical review committee Be conducted by scientifically qualified persons supervised by
clinically competent medical person Subjects must be volunteers & informed participants
World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki
Physician must: Protect the life,health,privacy & dignity of the human
subject Cease any investigation if the risks outweigh any
potential benefits Inform adequately each potential subject & obtain
his/her freely given consent, preferably in writing Obtain consent from a legally authorized
representative if subject legally incompetent
World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki
‘A need was, however, felt to develop our own Indian Guidelines to ensure uniform quality of clinical research throughout the country and to generate data for registration for new drugs before use in the Indian population.’
