LANDSCAPE HAS CHANGED….
• Focus is now on transparency disclose results!– 1997: FDA Modernization Act required trial registration for therapies used to
treat “serious or life-threatening diseases”
– 2005: ICMJE (International Committee of Medical Journal Editors) requirement for trial registration to publish in ICMJE member journals
– 2007: FDA Amendments Act (FDAAA) requirement for trial registration & results posting
– 2011: EMA requirement for trial registration & results posting
– 2012 (draft): FDA TEST Act (Trial and Experimental Studies Transparency) expands the scope of trials requiring registration & results posting
– Corporate Integrity Agreements1
