Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
End of Study in a Member State of the EU is defined as the time at which it is deemed that sufficient patients have been recruited and completed the study as stated in the regulatory application and ethics application in the Member State. Poor recruitment by a Member State is not a reason for premature termination but is considered a normal conclusion to the study in that Member State.
End of Study in all other participating countries is defined as Last Patient Last Visit. |
