Why Europe should strive to increase its clinical trials – POLITICO

Why Europe should strive to increase its clinical trials – POLITICO

Published by Sam Flores

The pharmaceutical sector is the engine room that drives clinical trial activity and the benefits that go way beyond patient care. Clinical research delivers significant economic growth, and the European Union has the potential to deliver so much more. That’s why it’s good news that the European Medicines Agency (EMA), alongside the European Commission and Heads of Medicines Agencies (HMA), have set a new target for increasing clinical trials in the EU.

It will produce an extra 35,000 clinical trial places for people in Europe, who will be able to access treatments that may otherwise have been unavailable.

The announcements come after almost eight years of research and campaigning from The MTPT Project and union and wider sector partners, which gained particular interest following the 2024 Missing Mothers report, a collaboration with The New Britain Project. The findings of this report made it impossible to deny the negative impact of the motherhood penalty on the education workforce. In particular, it highlighted our woeful maternity pay offer in comparison to other graduate professions, with Teacher …
