Good Clinical Practice (GCP)

Good Clinical Practice (GCP) is a set of internationally recognized ethical and scientific guidelines that ensure the quality, safety, and integrity of clinical trials involving human participants. It aims to protect the rights and welfare of participants while generating reliable data for assessing new treatments or drugs. GCP covers various aspects, including ensuring informed consent, maintaining confidentiality, and adhering to protocols throughout the study. By following GCP, researchers help ensure that findings are credible and can be trusted, ultimately leading to better healthcare outcomes.
