World Health Organization Launches Clinical Trial Database

Kai Ryssdal, Marketplace: “The World Health Organization said [May 4] it’s going to provide online one-stop shopping for information on clinical drug trials. Doctors, researchers and curious patients now have access to the results of 50,000 clinical trials in the U.S., Britain and Australia. It’s a big deal because, as it stands now, a lot of drug research never finds its way to publication.”

  • International Clinical Trials Registry Platform Search Portal: “The Search Portal is a web site that enables users to search a central database that contains the trial registration data sets provided by Primary Registers. When a user finds a trial on the Search Portal that they are interested in, they can learn more about the trial by clicking on a link that will take them to the relevant record in the source register. The Search Portal is not a clinical trials register.”
