More Information
| Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study. | ||||||
| There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed. | ||||||
The agreement is:
|
| Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data |
|---|
| Accrual on the trial was stopped earlier than planned due to insufficient efficacy in both arms. |
