GCPs are generally accepted, international best practices for conducting clinical trials and device studies. They are defined as an international ethical and scientific standard for designing, conducting, recording and reporting trials that involve the participation of human subjects. Compliance with GCPs provide public assurance that the rights and safety of participants in human subject research are protected and that the data that arises from the study is credible. GCPs aim to ensure that clinical studies are scientifically sound and that the clinical properties of investigational products are properly documented. They encompass the design, conduct, monitoring, termination, analyses, reporting and documentation of clinical studies.

The medical laboratory workflow can be divided into three main phases: pre-analytical, analytical, and post-analytical. Samples first go through sample collection, transportation, and registration before being prepared for analysis. Quality controls are run regularly to ensure machine accuracy. Samples are then analyzed and results are validated before being reported to clinicians. Proper sample handling and a standardized workflow are important for reducing errors and turnaround time while maintaining quality.
The Clinical Research Unit has over 20 years of experience conducting clinical trials. It is located in Montreal, Canada and led by four principal investigators. The Unit has conducted over 325 trials across various phases and therapeutic areas. It has significant experience recruiting for and conducting vaccine trials, including being the highest recruiting site in Canada for GSK's H1N1 vaccine study. The Unit has a dedicated call center, state-of-the-art facilities, and capacity to enroll up to 100 subjects daily.

This document provides information about Good Laboratory Practices (GLP). It discusses that GLP was created by the FDA in 1978 after cases of fraud were discovered in toxicology labs. GLP provides a framework to ensure uniformity, consistency, reliability and quality of non-clinical safety studies. It outlines principles for organization, personnel, facilities, test systems, standard operating procedures, and archiving to ensure integrity of study data and compliance. The objectives of GLP are to assure regulatory authorities that submitted data accurately reflects study results and can be relied upon for risk assessments.

Biobanks provide essential resources for translational and clinical research by collecting and storing biological samples and associated data. However, there are challenges to establishing sustainable biobanks, including managing stakeholders, standardizing operations, ensuring quality, and balancing the demand for samples with a biobank's finite collection and storage capacity. Centralized biobanks can help address these challenges through economies of scale, uniform standards and regulations, dedicated expertise and facilities, and coordinated access policies that serve researchers' needs while protecting research subjects.
GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) is a formal regulation created by the FDA in 1978 to ensure the quality and integrity of safety data involved in regulatory decision making. It was developed because of cases of poor laboratory practices, fraudulent activities, and inaccurate reporting of studies. GLP principles provide a framework for planning, conducting, monitoring, recording, reporting and archiving laboratory studies according to standard operating procedures. Following GLP helps ensure the reliability and integrity of data, provides better control and guidelines for laboratory processes, and gives companies conducting research a quality image in the global market.
