Clinical research phases, IRB and IEC functions, informed consent, Good Clinical Practice, trial monitoring and pharmacovigilance are integrated within the wider product lifecycle.Clear explanations emphasise why regulatory requirements exist, how evidence is generated and documented, and how regulators use that evidence in review and approval.
