Clinical Research Industry has grown around the
world in an unparalled rate in the past few years.
The global pharmaceutical market is estimated at
US$ 427 billion, and research and development cost
is estimated at US$ 60 – 65 billion annually. Two
thirds of this amount is spent on drug development,
i.e. approximately US$ 40 billion. Clinical trials
involve almost 70% of time and money of new drug
development. Cost of conducting clinical trials for a
new drug is approximately US$ 200 – 250 million.

Pharmaceutical Industries vision to bring cure for all,
need to bring medicines to market faster, and the
intention to make healthcare available to all has
seen trials being conducted in many locations. The
access to patients with varied gene pool, food and
cultural habits and population exposed to specific
diseases has seen regions like India, China, Africa,
Middle East and Latin America become major sites
for sponsor companies to conduct their clinical trials.
As with all global operations, operating under
different regulatory guidelines, understanding
different cultural and ethical values and finding the
right partners, has remained a challenge for
pharmaceutical, bio – pharmaceutical and medical
device companies.
JCS with its distinguished editorial advisory board
provides you with the best practice guidelines for
conducting global clinical trials.
We are the specialist journal providing you with
relevant articles which will help you to navigate
emerging markets.
