Abstract
The term Good Clinical Practice (GCP) suggests that it relates to a standard of practical clinical medicine; it does not. It is a standard, or more precisely, a set of standards that have been developed for the conduct of clinical trials with investigative new drugs. These standards can actually be applied to any experimentation in humans.
