Paper: MRCT and ICH E17

Drug development has rapidly been globalized. Multi-regional clinical trial (MRCT) for regulatory submission has widely been conducted in the ICH and non-ICH regions. Regulatory agencies currently face challenges in evaluating data from MRCTs for drug approval. In order to harmonize points to consider in planning/designing MRCTs and minimize conflicting opinions, an ICH working group was established in late 2014 to create an international guideline for MRCT (ICH E17). The draft ICH E17 has been issued in 2Q2016. This presentation will highlight the basic principles, general strategy, and statistical considerations outlined in the current draft guidance.
