On January 6, 2025, a new revision (R3) was finalized and is now in the implementation phase, during which regulators will define its mandatory adoption timeline.

A key focus of this webinar will be the revised roles and responsibilities of clinical research organizations (CROs) and sponsors, including shifts in study oversight, risk-based quality management and accountability. Experts will provide insights on adapting to these changes to ensure continuous compliance and regulatory acceptance while optimizing trial efficiency and integrity.
