Why Boilerplate Clauses in Clinical Trial Agreements Matter
CTA negotiations are often long, time-consuming, and costly. As a result, many sites simply chose to ignore the boilerplate clauses such as governing law, venue, assignment, survival, force majeure, and others. This can unnecessarily expose the site, the PI, and all study personnel to serious financial risk. This presentation will help identify and describe the key boilerplate clauses in CTAs and will then provide the attendees with suggestions of how to negotiate these clauses in a proper and efficient manner. 409
