VERGES, Claude; FARINONI, Noemí  y  ROJAS, Matilde. Principles and regulations for the evaluation of clinical research funded by the pharmaceutical industry in Ethics Research Committees in Panama. Med. ética [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.2, pp.341-405.  Epub 14-Ago-2023. ISSN 2594-2166.  https://doi.org/10.36105/mye.2021v32n2.01.

The results of a multicenter research evaluation of the Research Ethics Committees (CEI) in Panama are presented, which seeks mechanisms that help strengthen their capacity to evaluate, from a bioethics and human rights approach, the protocols of the trials clinics financed by the pharmaceutical industry or foreign research centers, as well as monitoring the implementation of approved protocols. Sufficient documentation was reviewed and interviews were conducted with members of four CIS. From there, it is concluded that in Panama the CIS respect the international standards of operation and protocol review, and that the problems encountered are related to their experience, the social context and the evolution of the interests of pharmaceutical companies.

Palabras llave : Bioethics Research Committees; financed clinical protocols; clinical trials.
