The objectives of the conference were to discuss implications of international guidance on post-trial responsibilities for clinical research, to articulate and understand the range of perspectives on post-trial responsibilities, to draw lessons from successful and unsuccessful attempts to implement post-trial policies, and to discuss potential scenarios and practical solutions for post-trial responsibilities that may inform policy in this important area moving forward.
