No trial record in OnCo lists a site in Iraq. OnCo reads sites from ClinicalTrials.gov; studies registered only elsewhere are searchable through the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform.
OnCo holds no institution, company or person in Iraq.
OnCo records approvals for United States, European Union, United Kingdom, Japan, China, Australia and India. Iraq is not one of them, so no approval in OnCo speaks for it. See the approvals by region matrix for what is held.
