Good Clinical Practice (GCP)

Meaning

Good Clinical Practice (GCP) is an internationally recognized, unified ethical and scientific quality standard for the meticulous design, execution, recording, and reporting of clinical trials involving human participants, particularly in the domain of pharmaceutical and hormonal research. Strict adherence to GCP is paramount, ensuring the comprehensive protection of the rights, safety, and overall well-being of all trial subjects while simultaneously guaranteeing the integrity and accuracy of the collected clinical data. This standard forms the bedrock for the ethical development of all new endocrine treatments.
