The Sponsor-Investigator and clinical trial team, including co-investigators, study coordinators, research nurses, trial pharmacists and other supporting department staff, have responsibilities for the delivery of clinical trials that generate high-quality data in a safe environment.
It is useful to understand these responsibilities in terms of the four main stages of a clinical trial: planning and design, conduct, data analysis and dissemination of results.
Each stage has key activities that are summarised in this infographic, a useful tool to assist researchers to understand key activities and major milestones that occur during the clinical trial life cycle from clinical trial planning through to sharing results after trial completion.
