A properly designed clinical trial forms an integral part of successful drug development. However, to design and execute an effective clinical trial requires cooperation, understanding and respect of a multi-disciplinary team. The book, “A Quick Guide to Clinical Trials” explores the very essentials of clinical trials to lead the reader into the exciting arena.
Aimed at imparting a solid foundation of the clinical trials process, its drivers, checks and balances and more, this book sets out to deliver a unique view of clinical trial process, and how the reader can contribute to it? Inspired by young recruits to the pharmaceutical industry, it follows a jargon-lite style of presentation, the chapters however, are comprehensive enough for you to conceptualize a framework, which you can build upon later to include as many jargons as you please.
Further, as the book is appreciative of how challenging it can sometimes be for professionals to maintain currency of knowledge as it is generated, each chapter serves as a quick review of the clinical trials process, its drivers, checks and balances, etc. even for those who’ve matured in the industry.
The 14 chapters of the book have been classified in to 3 sections, namely broad overview, nuts and bolts, and the future.
1. The Broad Overview explains the significance of clinical trials, covers a short history of the FDA and clinical trials, and delves into the business aspect of pharmaceutical drug development.
2. The Nuts And Bolts section provides a comprehensive coverage of various aspects of clinical trial processes. It includes the following topics: project management, ethics in clinical research, regulatory affairs, monitoring, statistics, data management, technology in clinical trials, medical writing, the clinical research physician, and clinical trials vis-a-vis the patient.
3. The Future segment discusses the projections about the forthcoming outlook of the field, and is aptly titled “the future of clinical trials.”

By the time you finish reading this, you’ll have a great understanding of what makes pharmaceutical grade fish oil the safest and most effective fish oil on the market, and why it can be unhealthy to choose otherwise.
The term “pharmaceutical grade fish oil” was coined by Dr. Barry Sears, a staunch advocate for rigorous testing and experimenting involving high doses of ultra-pure omega 3 supplements. His research and findings are nothing short of amazing, and make a very compelling case for the daily use of long-chain omega 3 fatty acids in the diet.
Health Food Grade Fish Oil
This type of fish oil is the kind seen on the shelves in stores. It’s important to know these are not pharmaceutical grade omega 3 oils because of the way they’re manufactured. Often they contain high amounts of toxic chemicals like PCBs, dioxin and mercury which are all extremely toxic to human beings.
As fish exist in the wild, the amount of toxins their skins absorb is directly related to the pollution levels in their regions of the ocean. Often, the manufacturers of health food grade oils don’t do the best job at making attempts to purify them or extract them from good fish sources.
The fish oil supplement standards in the United States are dangerously lax and “allow manufacturers to put whatever they want on a product label as long as it doesn’t promise to cure or prevent a particular disease” (Sears p 95). This is disconcerting to say the least. Over-consumption of health food grade oils can quickly lead to nasty side effects like cramps, GI issues, mercury poisoning and exposure to carcinogens like PCBs and dioxin.
Pharmaceutical Grade Fish Oil
Based on the downsides of health food grade fish oil, you probably clearly see the need for a purer alternative. What makes an omega 3 oil “pharmaceutical grade”? Simply put, you can define an omega 3 oil as “pharmaceutical grade” once it passes ultra-stringent purity standards. These standards require impurities to be measured and verified by a third party and the results printed on a Certificate of Analysis for public view. Pharmaceutical grade fish oil also needs to be comprised of more than 60% total omega 3 fatty acids and have impurities so low that they’re either nearly, or completely undetectable in order to qualify.
Many different companies who cannot substantiate their purity claims will mark up their products with “pharmaceutical grade” on the labels in an attempt to sell more products. It’s important you see through this, and first check for the company’s Certificate of Analysis. If the company you’re working with cannot, or will not provide this information for you then something is very wrong. Most companies that offer pharmaceutical grade oils have their Certificate of Analysis proudly posted on their websites to prove their claims.
For your reference, and I hope this isn’t too scientific, here are the standards that need to be followed in order to consider a fish oil pharmaceutical grade:
• Total Long-Chain Omega 3 Fatty Acids: More than 60% of the total fatty acids
• Mercury: Less than 10 parts per billion
• PCBs: Less than 30 parts per billion
• Dioxin: Less than 1 part per trillion
So you can see, pharmaceutical grade fish oil standards are literally thousands of times more stringent than the requirements for standard health food grade oil, and it is the adherence to these standards – verified by the Certificate of Analysis – that allows an omega 3 oil to be considered pharmaceutical grade.
Now that you’re armed with this knowledge, it’s time to make your move and start doing some smart shopping for fish oil. You know what to look for and you know what to avoid, and always remember that the Certificate of Analysis is your proof of purity and guiding light to choosing the right products.
