What is the significance of the interdependence of the principles in ICH GCP?

Interdependence means the GCP principles form a single, cohesive system where ethical safeguards and scientific integrity support each other. In practice, planning, informed consent, trial conduct, data handling, monitoring, safety reporting, and oversight are all connected—a weakness in one area can compromise participant protection and the reliability of the study results. Because of this, they should be viewed and evaluated together, not in isolation, to ensure ethical trial conduct and credible data. This relevance spans the entire trial process and across all phases, not just statistics or early-stage studies.
