What, Exactly, is IMCT ?
• Include a larger number of participants
• Different geographic locations
• The possibility of inclusion of a wider range of population groups with different
– genetic
– environmental
– and ethnic or cultural backgrounds

Current Status of IMCT
• Globalization of clinical trials is a reality
• Clinical trials across multiple regions of the world have become common practice
• China is an increasingly important source of patients to test new drugs – As of April 28, 2015, there were 18,9109 clinical
trials globally
– Up to 6040 in mainland China

Need to conduct clinical trial according to Good Clinical Practice(GCP) Standards
•GCP is a standard for the design, conduct, monitoring, analyses, and reporting of clinical trials
•The practice of GCP were standard in all Member Sites, before 2002, only a minority of hospital in China had previously were familiar with the obligations of the different parties of GCP
•IMCT introduced GCP principles to ensure that trials are conducted in accordance with high standards of ethics and science

Pros and Cons for patients in terms of participation of IMCT
• Pros
– Patients will be benefited from free new effective medications already on the market in Europe and America
– Patients will be benefited from tailored follow-up , and will decrease cost
– More convenient for a clinic (saving time, good doctors and nurses)
– Cost saving
• Cons
– Information not balanced, misunderstood
– Under-treatment if control arm is not well designed, like placebo
– Safety concern for the very new treatments
– Impact on activities of daily living?
– Some are worried about privacy, asynchronous communication can be more efficient.
• 1) access to treatment 2) improved care when participating to a clinical trial but 3) exposure to safety issues or to no treatement (in case of placebo controlled trial) : how does the

On 12/1/2002, ‘Drug Registration Regulation’ was issued by CFDA, the first regulation for approval of an international multi-center trial, then , international multi-center clinical trial showed an increasing trend in China. On 30/1/2015 , China Food and Drug Administration(CFDA) issued ‘International multi-center clinical trial Guideline’ as a framework for good management in trials of medicines in China

Compared with developed countries, there is a gap
• Less IMCT: For example, Cancer Patients, enrolled in one of a clinical trial
– >90% , USA
– About 9% , China
• Among the ongoing IMCL in mainland China, the majority IMCL are industry-sponsored trial ( IST), while investigator-initiated clinical trial ( IIT) were viewed as of higher academic value

Types of Ongoing IMCT
• Therapeutic : >90% • Prevention
• Early detection/diagnostic

• Epidemiological
• Observational
• Quality-of-life

Need MORE Investigator-initiated clinical trial
A report including combined data from approx. 1140
studies shows that industry-sponsored clinical trials
are significantly more likely to reach conclusions in
favor of the industry vs non-industry studies- possibly
publication bias or selection of an inappropriate
comparator to the drug being evaluated

We has done much to promote national multi-center clinical trials • Investigator Initiated Trials (IITs)
• Investigator Initiated Studies (IISs)
• Investigator Sponsored Trials (ISTs)
• Investigator Initiated Research (IIR)
• Non Registration trials (NRTs)
• Non Sponsored Trials

What are Today’s Challenges?
• Each participating site needs to be visited numerous times, making this a large, and time-consuming administrative activity, not only for the monitor, but also for the physicians involved. Monitoring is associated with high costs
Investigator-initiated China regional multi-center clinical trial in China

• With Limited funds:
– How to protect the enthusiasm and commitment of the physicians and attract them to involve.
– Time-consuming, in some cases even to the extent that they declared not to participate in these kind of studies again in the future.

How to improve
• A well designed protocol – Background to evaluate the feasibility of the new
treatment and control arm, based on the best clinical practice guideline
– Ethical committee fully consider the safety for all the participants
– Mostly understanding and fully consent to attend by the participants and their family
– Reimbursement should be prepared and easily got accessed
• Independent supports from large pharmaceutical companies

Quality Assurement
• Team building including investigators, nurses, CRC(clinical research coordinator), CRA(clinical research associate),statistician
• Timely audit for the projects, both inside hospital and outside hospital
• supplements including office, network, and storage space
• Central study pharmacy inside hospital is promoting

Conflict of Interest (COI)
• COI issues are real
– Focus on financial only
– Tone: non – collaborative
– Unintended consequences – effecting collaborative efforts
• Debate needs broader view: goal - improve public health
• Alternative position
– Include all types of conflicts
– Improve public health is a primary interest
– Checks and balances in place
– Collaboration/ cooperation/ learning /teaching

• Clinical trial is a good clinical practice
• Only the medical team with good practice can start a good clinical trial
• Increasing realization that institutions can’t go it alone
• Collaborative efforts in complex systems, Sharing the rewards
• Focus on unmet medical need/public health value

Thank you!
Trials are short; real-clinical practice has no time limit
