International Clinical Trials (ICT) is a specialist journal that discusses the various stages of clinical trials programmes, the funding behind them, and the trends that dictate their feasibility.
Published quarterly, the journal offers a platform of communication and information-sharing for executive and strategic decision makers, seeking out new trends and marketing opportunities, as well as putting a spotlight on the latest innovations coming to market. ICT is specifically designed to be of interest to those actively seeking to source services for improved efficiency in what is an increasingly competitive market.
Prompted by the synergies between trial operations and wider contract research and outsourcing issues, ICT joined forces with sister title European Pharmaceutical Contractor (EPC) in late-2015, in a move that brings added value to both brands. With EPC now an inserted edition within ICT, industry practitioners across these complementary subject areas now have unrivalled access to a wealth of shared views and analyses.
