The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has changed the name of the Clinical Trial Exemption (CTX) scheme to the Clinical Trial Approval (CTA) scheme. The name change from CTX to CTA more accurately reflects the nature of the scheme under the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989, which involves sponsors applying for the TGA's approval to supply unapproved therapeutic goods in Australia via a clinical trial despite the therapeutic goods are not being entered in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). The scheme's previous name of CTX underscored the exemption given by the TGA to a sponsor from entering their therapeutic good in the ARTG before conducting a clinical trial.
