Quality Clinical Trials in Japan Strengthen or Weakness?
Over-Reaction
Over-Quality Important to improve Weakness • Cost Performance • Productivity • Speed
More important to conduct “Quality CTs”
• Minimizing Bias • Providing good environment/Infra-structure • Quality Clinical Plan & Strategy from
scientific/business point of view • Educated staff
