Good Clinical Practice is intended to ensure which aspects of a trial?

• A. Only speed.
• B. Rapid recruitment.
• C. Ethical conduct, participant safety, and data integrity.
• D. Maximizing profit.

Answer: (C)

Good Clinical Practice sets international standards for designing, conducting, recording, and reporting trials that involve human subjects to protect participants and ensure credible results. The emphasis is on ethical conduct, safeguarding participant safety and rights, and ensuring data integrity so that the trial findings are reliable and can support regulatory decisions. While speed, rapid recruitment, or profit are not the aims of GCP, pursuing them could jeopardize participant welfare and data quality. So the best choice centers on ethics, safety, and trustworthy data.
