You may have heard us talk about GCP before, the international standard for the conduct of clinical studies globally. But, there’s a new version on the block! This episode is all about why the changes were needed and how they look in practice. Remember, you can get in touch with us via [email protected]. Please feel free to send questions, comments and compliments for Elyse to read out on the pod. It’s fun to make Debbie squirm! Credit to our friend Sam Winnie for their awesome and cute music.

Episode 42 In this episode, the unexpected third part in our “Historical Stuff” series, Debbie is going to tell Elyse about some tragedies in clinical trials, what occurred, what we learned and the consequences of them. So, heads up, definitely a content warning for this episode, it will include medical outcomes, death (including deaths of children), fetal development, torture, unethical conduct, medical racism (racism in general) - just a whole mixed bag of really terrible stuff. If that doesn’t sound like something you want to listen to, feel free to give this one a miss. Remember, you can get in touch with us via [email protected].

Pharmacovigilance is a big work that we’re going to break down in this episode, to look at the data around safety events, or patient experienced side effects in clinical trials and after a drug is on the market. Where does the data come from, and what is done with it. We are going to dive into the WHO definition of pharmacovigilance, and look out for a special appearance from our favourite shiny rock!
