News from the "Cardiovascular Clinical Trials in Emerging Countries 2010" Conference

May 10-11, 2010, Prague, Czech Republic. Compiled by K. Roumeliotou, May 20, 2010

The "Cardiovascular Clinical Trials in Emerging Countries 2010" Conference took place on May 10th to 11th, 2010, in Prague. The globalisation of clinical trials has meant that, increasingly, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are turning towards performing clinical trials in emerging markets such as Asia Pacific, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America and the Middle East.

However, cultural, ethical, logistical and regulatory challenges can prove to be the biggest roadblocks when conducting trials in emerging countries, and this is particularly true when conducting cardiovascular clinical trials. "Cardiovascular Clinical Trials in Emerging Countries" focused on the issues, problems and solutions of conducting cardiovascular clinical trials in key emerging markets as well as examining the challenges facing the pharmaceutical industry in pursuing a contemporary approach in the development of drugs and treatment in key areas.

We present a brief review of selected presentations of this conference, compiled by K. Roumeliotou.
