Gene Therapy Legislation in Spain

The GMO aspects of clinical trials with medicinal products for human use containing or consisting of GMOs are regulated under the deliberate release framework- part B of Directive 2001/18. The applications to seek authorization under the clinical trials framework and under the GMO framework are not linked (i.e. the applicant can decide the timing of the submission of the GMO application).
