Dispatches: The Drug Trial That Went Wrong
(UK) Channel 4 Television 28/9/06 9.00 pm - Brian Deer was
tough with the MHRA (Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency) and
tried to talk to TeGenero (now insolvent) http://www.tegenero.com/about_us/index.php but was stonewalled at every turn. TeGenero made the drug TGN1412 and Parexel http://www.parexel.com/ provided
the clinics for the drugs trials. See also 'Drugs on Trial' website
directory! http://www.drugsontrial.com/index.php?page=Directory&letter=P&searchmode=letter&dir=CRO
Picture by Colin Downes-Grainger
The MHRA, the UK’s regulatory agency for
medicines, has a lot to answer for here. As you may recall, it came in for
particularly damning criticism in last year’s Report by the Health Committee of
the UK House of Commons on the ‘The Influence of the Pharmaceutical Industry’ http://www4.dr-rath-foundation.org/uk/influence.html
where it was described as having a poor history in recognizing drug risks, poor
communication and lack of public trust. Hardly surprisingly, therefore, during
the inquiry that led to the publication of the Report, the Committee became
aware of serious weaknesses in the MHRA. In this respect, and as the Report
stated, “in both its written and oral evidence the Agency seemed oblivious to
the critical views of outsiders and unable to accept that it had any obvious
shortcomings, except those that could be remedied by more transparency.” The
Report also found that the MHRA’s attitude to its public health
responsibilities “suggested some complacency and a lack of requisite
competency, reducing our confidence in its ability to undertake the reforms
needed to earn and deserve public trust.”
Sobering, isn’t it, that the Health Committee’s report has essentially been
buried, and that its criticisms of the MHRA have proven to be so accurate?

The Big Picture - Dr. Matthius Rath
It is sometimes difficult to understand the complex relationships that exist
between the key international bodies, governments, trade associations and other
entities concerned with health. Awareness of how these bodies fit together and
their respective functions is, however, fundamental to understanding the bigger
picture and the full extent of the threat to your health posed by this web of
interest groups.

Secret Rumsfield Meeting to Implement North American
Union;Health Freedom in Jeopardy Australia: NSW LEGISLATION
TO BE DEBATED THIS WEEK TARGETS NATUROPATHS A few days ago, the NSW Health
Minister issued a press release that the state would be cracking down on

original press release named as its primary areas of focus various types
of naturopathy, including counsellors, massage therapists and herbalists. The
key wording here is 'promise things they can't deliver'. http://www.abc.gov.au/news/items/200609/1743995.htm?nsw Health

for, Title 18, Section 1001, lying to the public.
