WHO, medicines regulators call on drug manufacturers to open access to clinical data ANI | Updated: May 07, 2021 21:55 IST
Washington [US], May 7 (ANI/Sputnik) : The WHO and the International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA) urged the pharmaceutical industry to open access to clinical data for all new medicines and vaccines for reasons of overriding public health interest.
Making relevant data on innovative vaccines and medicines readily available will increase public trust in the treatment options, streamline global research efforts, increase data quality and help with healthcare policy making, the document stated. Publication of data allows science to advance faster, by avoiding repetition of unnecessary trials and waste of resources (human and financial). This also brings benefits by improving the efficiency of development programmes and reducing both development costs and time, the official statement said.
