ABSTRACT
The UK has fallen from fourth to 10th place in the global ranking for clinical trial activities in the past 6 years. Due to the limited capacity of the clinical trial pharmacy workforce and delays in providing pharmacy approvals, pharmacy has been identified as one of the constraining services that delays the set-up and delivery of clinical trials. To tackle this problem, we developed a single pharmacy review process for multicentre trials across Greater Manchester (GM) and tested its feasibility and implementation in our region. A survey completed by each GM Trust suggests that this harmonised pharmacy review process for multicentre studies would expedite trial set-up time at each pharmacy site and standardise the pharmacy review process in GM. We therefore believe that this harmonised review process could potentially reduce pharmacy set-up time and reposition the UK in the global market for clinical trials.
