Accelerating Clinical Trials in the EU

Implementation of the Clinical Trials Regulation

Progress on CTR implementation

Under ACT EU, the European medicines regulatory network (EMRN) publishes statistics on the authorisation of clinical trials in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) every month. This information provides an insight into how the CTR is transforming the clinical trial environment in the EU/EEA.

The reports are based on data retrieved from the Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

Implementation progress reports

Targeted surveys collect feedback from clinical trial sponsors on their experience with the implementation of the CTR and the use of CTIS. 

A summary report on the 2023 survey is now available.

Transitioning trials to the CTR

Clinical trials authorised under the Clinical Trials Directive that are expected to continue beyond 30 January 2025 need to be transitioned to the CTR. 

More information and resources to support sponsors are available on the CTIS website.
