Contract Issues in the Outsourcing of Clinical Trials
The increasingly common practice of outsourcing clinical trials for pharmaceutical research and development is fraught with legal and ethical complications, especially as much of the outsourcing finds these clinical trials taking place in underdeveloped countries that lack infrastructure and appropriate civil and social oversight.
