Transparency in Clinical Trials

Transparency in clinical trials means openly sharing information about how a new treatment or medicine is tested, including study methods, results, and any potential risks. This openness allows researchers, healthcare providers, and the public to verify findings, trust the evidence, and make informed decisions about healthcare. It involves registering trials before they begin and publishing results regardless of whether the outcomes are positive, negative, or inconclusive. Transparency helps prevent bias, ensures accountability, and promotes scientific progress by making all relevant data accessible and understandable.
