The ICH revised E6 guidelines was issued to reflect on the current research landscape: increases in globalization, study complexity, and technological capabilities. The updated ICH GCP E6 R2 is more descriptive than the previous version and describes 26 items of change. These changes consist of new items in definitions; new sections on investigator responsibilities, including oversight; a substantial new sponsor section on quality management, including risk assessment; monitoring plans defined and implemented; introducing Risk-Based Quality Management; serious breaches, and, a new section on computer validation and electronic records, to name a few. This workshop is designed to help quality assurance and compliance specialists, study monitors, and auditors meet these challenges proactively, with the goal of strengthening auditing programs and ensuring compliance with risk-based techniques in preparation to FDA inspection.
