Update sponsor

A sponsor is an individual or organization responsible for initiating clinical research. Sponsors play a pivotal role in the development and execution of the trial, overseeing its design, implementation, and regulatory compliance. The sponsor can be a pharmaceutical company, academic institution, government agency, or entity that funds and coordinates the clinical trial process.

Once the sponsor is added to your company, it cannot be removed but you can still manage or update its details. The changes might be required due to structural or any other pertinent modifications. An option to update the sponsor details ensures that all the information remains accurate and up-to-date throughout the dynamic lifecycle of clinical trials.

To update a sponsor
