What is the role of the ICH Expert Working Group in the guideline development process?

Guideline development in ICH is a collaborative drafting effort led by an Expert Working Group. This group brings together experts from regulatory authorities and industry to write the guideline and then consult with regulatory parties from ICH member regions to gather feedback, revise the proposal, and reach consensus before adoption. They ensure the guideline reflects harmonized regulatory expectations across regions. They do not enforce inspections, publish trial results, or fund trials; those are outside their role.
