Clinical trial agreement or CTA

If it is about clinical trial or biomedical trials... CTA or Clinical Trial Agreement is the the right name.
My source: I am Certified in Clinical Research....
And you will find enclosed a link to University of California.
It is a contract MANDATORY that MUST be signed before anything is being started about this research. It says who is going to be investigator, how much time it will take, if the investigator needs some help (like nurses or PA), who promotes the trial, who sponsorizes the trial, who is going to pay for the medical staff that is going to be involved, etc....

Convention hospitalière (de type LEEM) is a SPECIFIC document and is referred to by the idiom "CTA" in English. A CTA is not less of a specific document.

As you can see it. These are basically the very same documents (beside names places and molecules of course).

Just for you to know these contracts tend to be uniformized and standardized either in Europ and in the US (because there are common "good practice regulations")

Example sentence:

Investigators should provide SP with a copy of the draft clinical trial agreement (CTA), protocol, and a company contact person as early in the process as possible.

All Clinical Trial Agreements should be only between The Regents of the University of California and the Sponsor

Agreement or statement, expressed or implied, that is used to solve given types of problems. Conventions allow a standardized approach to problem solving and behavior in certain situations. An example of a convention is placing debits on the left side and credits on the right side of an account. The accountant performs daily functions by following conventions such as format guidelines in the preparation of financial statements.

Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : I doubt whether this is an agreement between states; and if it isn't then "convention" is a false friend
1 hr
my answer could be wrong , but please take a look to all the meanings of " convention " ( oxford dictionary)
disagree Agnes T-H : I don't think so, being Clinical research associate, I think it refers to "Clinical trial agreement"

agree AllegroTrans : a good suggestion

Thanks AllegroTrans.
neutral cc in nyc : Yes, good, but not specific enough to hospitals. // Sorry, the first entry was too quick; I apologize for that! :-( // But now I wonder if I misunderstood something. :o

Thanks cc in nyc. I think these can be agreements between service providers other than hospitals. I went for the snappy option maybe at the expense of accuracy. See link I've added.
disagree Agnes T-H : From what i understood it is about clinical trial, not a medical service.... "Clinical trial agreement" IS a contract there is no doubt about that when you read one.

I see it as a service level agreement between two organisations (relating to clinical trials). But "contract" is probably better!
