”Australia is an attractive place to conduct MedTech clinical research. This was the key topic at this morning’s MTPConnect session at the international MedTech conference. Key points:
Australia has a sophisticated medical research environment; there’s a streamlined clinical trials notification scheme with rapid approvals and a robust regulatory framework; the data collected is transferable and recognised by other regulatory authorities.
Australia is 28% cheaper than the US and 60% cheaper after tax incentives, for early phase clinical trials.
Australia has an ethnically diverse multi-lingual population; Western disease patterns; is close to Asian markets backed by Free Trade Agreements and has globally recognised KOLs in major therapeutic areas.
Australia has world-class clinical trials infrastructure with high quality facilities including for early phase device and preclinical studies; and established expertise in conducting device based trials.
