Workshop on Biobanking in Support of Clinical Trials

Venue: Kings Fund, Cavendish Square, London
Date: 12 March 2010

Biological samples are being increasingly collected and banked as part of clinical trials. Concerns are often raised about the best means of managing clinical trial related sample collections to ensure compliance with ethics, laws, quality management requirements and recommended good practice.

This Workshop will be of practical value to those planning or currently managing a clinical trial or the sample collection / biobank aspect of a trial and will include presentations on topics such as:

• Why clinical trialists want to collect samples
• Patient participation, ethics and governance
• Ownership, custodianship, access and usage of samples
• Practical considerations for sample collection, processing, storage and release in international multicentre trials
• What biobankers can offer trialists
• Quality management of biobank resources and compliance with clinical trials requirements
