Taiwan is increasingly positioning itself as an attractive destination for First-in-Human Clinical Trials, thanks to its high healthcare standards, educated workforce, and centralized regulatory oversight under the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA). The government actively supports biomedical innovation through grants and international partnerships, especially in areas like oncology, immunology, and biosimilars. Although Taiwan’s relatively small population can limit diversity in trials, its efficient trial approval process, typically completed within 60 days, provides a strong competitive edge. Digital transformation is evident, with increasing use of cloud-based data systems and patient engagement tools. There is a growing trend in cross-border trial participation with other Asia Pacific countries, and opportunities are emerging in wearable-assisted trials and real-world data integration, further enhancing Taiwan’s role in the early-phase clinical research ecosystem.
