Chris Seeks Clinical Results Of UK Covid Vaccine Trials Used By The NHS
Christopher Chope Conservative, Christchurch
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will place in the Library the results of all clinical trials carried out in the UK on the covid-19 booster vaccines currently being used by the NHS in England.
Neil O'Brien The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and Research Ethics Committee expectations are that the summary results of United Kingdom research are published within 12 months from the conclusion of the trial. These summaries should be published in the public register where the trial sponsor has registered the clinical trial.
Earlier this year, the MHRA conducted a public consultation on proposals to update the legislation governing the regulation of UK clinical trials. This included proposals to embed the transparency expectations of regulators into new legislation. The Government’s response to the consultation will be published in due course.
