Patient recruitment is the process of finding and enrolling suitable participants for clinical trials. It is a crucial aspect of drug development and medical research, as it affects the validity, reliability, and generalizability of the results. Patient recruitment can also be challenging, time-consuming, and costly, involving various ethical ...
Clinical equipoise, also known as the principle of equipoise, provides the ethical basis for medical research that involves assigning patients to different treatment arms of a clinical trial. The term was first used by Benjamin Freedman in 1987, although references to its use go back to 1795 by Edward Jenner. [1][2] In short, clinical equipoise ...
A clinical trial participant receives an injection. Clinical trials are prospective biomedical or behavioral research studies on human participants designed to answer specific questions about biomedical or behavioral interventions, including new treatments (such as novel vaccines, drugs, dietary choices, dietary supplements, and medical devices ...
A multicenter research trial is a clinical trial that involves more than one independent medical institutions in enrolling and following trial participants. [1] In multicenter trials the participant institutions follow a common treatment protocol and follow the same data collection guidelines, and there is a single coordinating center that receives, processes and analyzes study data.
Analysis of clinical trials. Clinical trials are medical research studies conducted on human subjects. [1] The human subjects are assigned to one or more interventions, and the investigators evaluate the effects of those interventions. [1][2] The progress and results of clinical trials are analyzed statistically. [3][4]
Phases of clinical research. The phases of clinical research are the stages in which scientists conduct experiments with a health intervention to obtain sufficient evidence for a process considered effective as a medical treatment. [1] For drug development, the clinical phases start with testing for drug safety in a few human subjects, then ...
STAMPEDE (clinical trial) Systemic Therapy in Advancing or Metastatic Prostate Cancer: Evaluation of Drug Efficacy (STAMPEDE) is a clinical trial investigating treatments for high risk or terminal prostate cancer. Recruitment started in 2005 and ended in 2022; as of January 2020, over 10,000 participants had joined the trial.
A clinical trial portal (also known as clinical portal or clinical study portal) is a web portal or enterprise portal that primarily serves sponsors and investigators in a clinical trial. Clinical portals can be developed for a particular study, however study-specific portals may be part of larger, clinical sponsor or Contract Research ...
