This first webinar in our series will examine the advantages and disadvantages of conducting clinical trials in Russia, the clinical studies cycle, regulatory environment, and impact of the new Drug Law in Russia on the clinical trials.
What do companies look for when considering conducting their clinical trials in emerging markets? The most common answer is high quality, high speed, and low costs.
Why Russia? We will discuss why the “Russian Troika” makes Russia an ideal choice for location. “Troika” meaning “three horse team” in Russian refers to
- Horse # 1 – Quality
- Horse #2 – Speed
- Horse # 3 – Costs
We will discuss how Russia meets the challenge by combining these three basic qualities in clinical trials
Regulatory environment (Drug Law of September 10, 2011): We will discuss the influence of the Drug Law on the clinical trials market in Russia and review basic changes from the old law. Special attention will be paid to registration and bio-equivalence studies, as well as the new insurance rules which have been modified since the Law went into effect in 2011.
New Law No. 323-FZ (the fundamentals of protection of public health): We will discuss this law how it affects the marketing approaches being taken by pharmaceutical companies.
Russia as a case study: At the end of the webinar we will review and discuss the results the 2011 clinical trials market in Russia (Orange Paper).
