NIAID ClinRegs Updates Its Resource for Clinical Research Professionals

A world map; numerous countries are highlighted in various colors, while others are gray.

ClinRegs—a free, online database that provides a central resource for country-specific clinical research regulatory information for 23 countries—has added new features to its website.

Recent updates to the site include a tabular dashboard on every country page, providing easy access to new requirements as they are issued, quick facts, current research and sites, and details on profile updates. Also, users can now compare up to four countries side-by-side and filter search results by country and topic.

The website, https://clinregs.niaid.nih.gov, was first launched by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) in 2014.

Each country profile has 36 topic areas that are updated at least annually and provide a summary of the applicable requirements and links to official regulatory and ethics guidance documents and forms. In the past year alone, nearly 68,000 users in 166 countries have visited ClinRegs.
