The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency is responsible for the regulation of clinical trials of medicinal products carried out under the Medicines for Human Use (Clinical Trials) Regulations 2004, which implements the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC. The Regulations do not cover innovative treatment services.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The Regulations define a clinical trial as:<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

\u201cclinical trial\u201d means any investigation in human subjects, other than a non-interventional trial, intended\u2014<\/p>

<\/p>

(a) to discover or verify the clinical, pharmacological or other pharmacodynamic effects of one or more medicinal products,<\/p>

<\/p>

(b) to identify any adverse reactions to one or more such products, or<\/p>

<\/p>

(c) to study absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of one or more such products,<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

with the object of ascertaining the safety or efficacy of those products.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Clinical studies of certain treatments may fall within the remit of other regulators but that will depend on the nature of the study.<\/p>

The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 1990 (as amended) provides that human embryos created by in vitro fertilisation that are not transferred to a patient, cannot be allowed to develop beyond a maximum of 14 days. At that stage, the embryos are about the size of the head of a pin.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The 1990 Act also provides that the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) cannot licence research using human embryos unless the research is necessary or desirable for the purposes specified in the Act and the use of embryos is necessary.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The HFEA has advised that the current total number of embryos that were allowed to perish in 2012 is 166,631.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The HFEA has also advised that it does not hold records of those embryos that have been generated by somatic cell nuclear transfer, pronuclear transfer, and spindle-chromosomal complex transfer.<\/p>

The Department has not issued guidance to trusts on their use of management consultants.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

We expect National Health Service organisations to keep a firm grip on their workforce planning and management and keep any use of management consultants, for example supporting short-term strategic reviews or providing interim management solutions, to a minimum. NHS organisations must also follow HM Treasury guidance on the engagement of staff off-payroll, including the requirement to put the most senior staff engaged for more than six months on their permanent staff payroll.<\/p>
