Danish Approval Process

Denmark has one of the fastest approval systems in Europe for clinical trial authorization. Applications should be submitted to the Danish Medicines Agency, which handles them is 30 days. Moreover, trials must also be notified to a research ethics committee, which performs an overall assessment of the trial’s ethical aspects. Approvals must be obtained from both a research ethics committee and the Danish Medicines Agency.

Danish Recruitment Potential

Denmark set up registry reporting on patients and their specific disease codes and current/past medication. That makes very simple researching and recruiting patients. Moreover, Danish citizens are usually open to participation in clinical trials. As a matter of facts, about 20,000 Danes volunteer as participants in clinical trials each year.
