Article 41U.K.Reporting of adverse events and serious adverse events by the investigator to the sponsor
1.The investigator shall record and document adverse events or laboratory abnormalities identified in the protocol as critical to the safety evaluation and report them to the sponsor in accordance with the reporting requirements and within the periods specified in the protocol.
2.The investigator shall record and document all adverse events, unless the protocol provides differently. The investigator shall report to the sponsor all serious adverse events occurring to subjects treated by him or her in the clinical trial, unless the protocol provides differently.
The investigator shall report serious adverse events to the sponsor without undue delay but not later than within 24 hours of obtaining knowledge of the events, unless, for certain serious adverse events, the protocol provides that no immediate reporting is required. Where relevant, the investigator shall send a follow-up report to the sponsor to allow the sponsor to assess whether the serious adverse event has an impact on the benefit-risk balance of the clinical trial.
3.The sponsor shall keep detailed records of all adverse events reported to it by the investigator.
4.If the investigator becomes aware of a serious adverse event with a suspected causal relationship to the investigational medicinal product that occurs after the end of the clinical trial in a subject treated by him or her, the investigator shall, without undue delay, report the serious adverse event to the sponsor.
