Why it matters

  • In Direct-to-patient (DTP) trials, any supply chain delay directly impacts a patient’s treatment and well-being.​

  • CGTs are irreplaceable. Maintaining cold chain integrity prevents the catastrophic loss of invaluable medical protocols.​

  • Engaging with organisations like the GCSG ensures the industry stays ahead of regulatory updates and technological innovations.
