European Medicines Agency (EMA) offers a virtual training programme, organised by DIA, to support sponsor user preparedness concerning the new way of submitting Clinical Trial Applications (CTA) in the EEA via the new Clinical Trial Information System (CTIS) and in compliance with the Clinical Trial Regulation No. 536/2014. This training opportunity is supported by EMA Data Analytics and Methods Task Force (TDA).
A hands-on approach is taken to explain and demonstrate the functionalities of the system, such as user management, how to submit an initial application as well as modifications, both substantial and non-substantial. Also, how to manage the life cycle of a Clinical Trial, how to manage the clinical trial transparency and respond to a Request for Information (RFI) will be addressed.
Furthermore, search and download options will be demonstrated and how CTIS interacts with other EMA systems such as the XEVMPD, EMA account management and OMS. The training programme also includes information on how to submit Annual Safety Reports (ASRs) as well as Clinical Study Reports (CSRs).
A blended learning approach is being used, offering components on-demand, self-paced and live virtual.
Participants receive access to the CTIS training environment and will practice basic functionalities during the live training course.
Who should attend?
This training programme is open to sponsor users of the new CTIS: commercial and non-commercial sponsors as well as Contract Research Organisations (CROs).
