WHO WE ARE

THE MISSION

The mission of INCiPiT is to foster and support the planning, conduct and completion of all types of clinical studies conducted in Italy in the paediatric population by all kinds of sponsor (not for profit and for profit).

About us

Paediatric clinical trials on drugs have been scarce for well-known ethical, practical, scientific and financial reasons, and drugs are still nowadays understudied in children. Both academia and industry, are less experienced and organized to conduct these studies, when compared to the adult world. As in Europe, in Italy there is a need for both expertise and logistic support to conduct paediatric clinical trials successfully.
