clock-stop
A general idea of what a clock-stop is
"A period of time during which further information can be requested, such as supplementary documentation to be submitted by the applicant"
"A period of time during which further information can be requested, such as supplementary documentation to be submitted by the applicant"
Example sentence:
"The maximum time taken by FAMHP to give an opinion is 15 days for monocentric phase I clinical trials and 28 days for all other clinical trials with a possible clock-stop of maximum one month"

: I posted this same answer (which I later removed) 4 hours ago but the asker told me that he was waiting for somebody to come up with something better, hope you don't get the same comment :-)

I'm so sorry Lorena, I didn't read your answer. I don't know what the Asker is looking for, but you were right about the term.

Muriel Vasconcellos
: Too bad about Lorena's answer. I don't know what the Asker could be looking for that would be 'better'.

Don't know if it's "better" but it certainly sounds sort of snappy and foreboding at once...

: Not what is meant. See for example: "The EC ... can stop a timeline for a set period (clock stop) if they have questions/suggestions regarding a submission. "

Discussion
I am glad we were able to clear up the misunderstanding.
Best regards
Asker: I do have ". . . the clock will stop . . ." temporarily unless someone comes up with something better.
After posting additional references and explaining that this is the term, is not something I made up, you again (like I was being dense)
Asker: I do have ". . . the clock will stop . . ." temporarily unless someone comes up with something better
The classy thing to do would be to say that this was a misunderstanding (instead of putting it on me) and that you apologize (to a colleague who has actually helped you a number of times throughout the years)
Happy Holidays!
Have a great evening!
