CCB Workshop on Biobanking in Support of Clinical Trials
Kings Fund, Cavendish Square, London.
Biological samples are being increasingly collected and banked as part of clinical trials. Concerns are often raised about the best means of managing clinical trial related sample collections to ensure compliance with ethics, laws, quality management requirements and recommended good practice.

This Workshop will be of practical value to those planning or currently managing a clinical trial or the sample collection / biobank aspect of a trial and will include presentations on topics such as:

  • Why clinical trialists want to collect samples
  • Patient participation, ethics and governance
  • Ownership, custodianship, access and usage of samples
  • Practical considerations for sample collection, processing, storage and release in international multicentre trials
  • What biobankers can offer trialists
  • Quality management of biobank resources and compliance with clinical trials requirements
Contributors include:

  • Professor Tim Maughan, University of Cardiff
  • Professor Sir Kenneth Calman, Chair National Cancer Research Institute
  • Professor Chris Womack, AstraZeneca
  • Dr James Brenton, University of Cambridge
Who should attend: Primary investigators (clinicians or scientists), clinical trials network staff, clinical trials unit staff, NHS R&D managers, tissue bank administrators / managers / technical staff, pathologists, patients, patient advocates, ethicists, regulators, and funders of research and infrastructure or anyone else involved in the collection, storage and use of human biological samples in clinical research.
