The ACT EU initiative aims to identify gaps, issues and bottlenecks (regulatory, resourcing, operational) that prevent non-commercial sponsors from setting up and conducting clinical trials and multinational trials in particular.
The programme intends to establish an action plan with clear measures in place to support non-commercial sponsors across the European Union / European Economic Area by:
- creating and maintaining a network of regulatory helpdesks, building on national activities, including extra support for questions on the Clinical Trials Regulation and the Clinical Trials Information System;
- finalising a definition of non-commercial sponsors;
- organising dedicated workshops, in liaison with the ACT EU Multi-stakeholder platform advisory group, to address prioritised topics.
