"As the Japanese clinical trial landscape evolves, it is increasingly important that we ensure consistent and fair payment-both for sponsors and sites," said Mr Shingo Haseto, taskforce leader, clinical evaluation expert committee, JPMA. "We're pleased to be collaborating with Medidata to better understand cost discrepancies and are confident that our research findings will lead to increased transparency around clinical trial costs related to site performance and, in doing so, ultimately improve the drug development process."
