The Clinical Trial DMP has gone live!
This DMP template is based on the Society of Clinical Data Management (SCDM) definition of a Data Management Plan as a document that “comprehensively documents data and its handling from definition, collection and processing to final archival or disposal.” It is compliant with GCP and NHMRC expectations for such a document and will hopefully be adaptable for the widest possible range of trials.
