To streamline global clinical trial operations, Clinical Trial Units (CTUs) within academic research institutions worldwide must harmonize services to meet international standards. A survey involving experienced CTU members aimed to identify the most crucial services for seamless clinical trial execution. The results revealed that services related to research project quality and coordination were of utmost importance. Emerging CTUs should focus on offering management and regulatory expertise, alongside education and training, to ensure compliance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and relevant legislation. This study guides CTUs in aligning their services with international clinical research standards.
