The Framework for Clinical Trial Participants’ Data Reutilization for a Fully Transparent and Ethical Ecosystem (FACILITATE) is a project supported by a coalition of EU and Non-EU nations to help support the re-use of clinical trial data. This will allow increased access to existing pools of real-world evidence (RWE) that is often out of researchers’ reach. In addition, it will provide participants with access to their trial data.

According to Catherine Eckford, “Part of a four-year project, aided by 27 partners from both EU and non-EU Member States, the framework will help develop technological solutions to support the sharing and re-use of the data. Once fully established, the framework will provide clear rules for all stakeholders who manage patient health data, state the project organisers.”
