REGULATORY SUPPORT AND CUSTOMS CLEARANCE
The Kyiv event featured a keynote presentation from Sergiy Rasputnyak, Head of the Laboratory and Clinical Practice Audit Department of the State Expert Center, Ministry of Health of Ukraine.
Mr Rasputnyak gave an update of main trends in clinical trials and legal requirements relating to clinical research in Ukraine. He confirmed an increase in the number of clinical trials taking place in Ukraine (see below for table illustrating positive trends in clinical trial excerpted from Mr Rasputnyak’s presentation). This upward trend means that the demand for clinical supply and logistics services will grow substantially.
