Date:9/7/2007

LONDON, September 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Clinical research professionals from all over the world gathered at the Gibson Hall in London last night for the inaugural Good Clinical Practice Journal (GCPj) Awards. Opening this landmark event, Chairman of the Commission on Human Medicines Professor Sir Gordon Duff said the awards were a most important celebration of innovation and enterprise in the development of new medicines.

Of course this is a serious business, but GCPj launched these awards to celebrate these achievements and tell the wider world about them too."

Individuals, teams and organisations were recognised by the 11 awards categories. The first company to receive an accolade was Pfizer who won the Most Successful Global Trial, which was sponsored by the global clinical research organisation (CRO) Kendle.
