ISPE GAMP Good Practice Guide (GPG):
Validation and Compliance of Computerized GCP Systems and Data – Good eClinical Practice
This ISPE GAMP GPG on compliant systems in clinical research offers recommendations on how to meet the specific challenges of the 21st century in the validation and operation of computerized systems in the GCP field. The authors of the guide, including QFINITY∞’s Oliver Herrmann and Dr. Jenny Gebhardt, consider the increasing number, complexity, costs and patient centricity of clinical trials and focus on the need to implement a new model of a virtually integrated drug development process. This process must be supported by highly integrated computerized systems (from statistical programming platforms, data capture systems and Interactive Response Technologies (IRT) solutions to mobile electronic patient diaries and, in the near future, wearables) to collect, process and analyse clinical data. This guide addresses all of these issues, which represent a major challenge for ensuring adequate control by sponsors and other stakeholders such as CROs and technology providers.
