Summary |
Purpose |
To follow the European Directive 2001/20/EC, institutional sponsors created or reinforced their vigilance units. Since 2007, the working group “REflexion sur la VIgilance et la Sécurité des Essais” (REVISE) rallies French institutional vigilance units (IVUs) to share their experience. The group decided to elaborate a collective work to provide a real-life descriptive picture of French IVUs activities and resources over the 2011–2016 period.
Method |
A questionnaire was sent to the 60 IVUs of the group. It included questions on staff and activities, such as the number of received and analyzed serious adverse events (SAEs). All results and proposals were discussed and consensus was achieved in general meeting.
Results/Conclusion |
The results highlight the commitment of IVU staffs at many steps of CTs, but also the frailty of some units, leading to 6 proposals intended to institutional sponsors and competent authorities for ensuring (1) IVU visibility to all actors; (2) sustainable IVU staff; (3) IVU resources adapted to sponsor's ambitions; (4) valorization of IVUs in publications; (5) recognition of IVU's value in clinical research quality; (6) involvement of IVUs in regulatory changes and their procedures of implementation.
