WHO Guidance for Best Practices for Clinical Trials - 4 DECEMBER 2024

                                    
Recently released World Health Organization (WHO) guidance for best
practices for clinical trials set a new standard for clinical research, placing
participant and community engagement at the forefront to ensure trials meet
public needs and build trust. Key updates focus on inclusive trial
reforms, particularly for underrepresented groups like children, pregnant
women, and older adults.
This guidance advocates for risk-based approaches rather than blanket
regulations, emphasizing ethics, efficiency, and tailored oversight. WHO
further provides practical recommendations for health and regulatory
authorities to streamline and support clinical trials, backed by
recommendations for sustained funding.
SFA Foundation through its  Clinical Research and Trials Community Programme
and the World Health Organization (WHO) have planned a
joint webinar for the African clinical research ecosystem players to explore
these transformative guidelines and practical steps to align clinical trials
with WHO standards and strengthen local research capacities.
