U.S. Clinical Trials Registry

The U.S. Clinical Trials Registry is an official online database where information about medical studies involving people is publicly listed before and during their conduct. It ensures transparency, allowing healthcare professionals, researchers, and the public to access details about the purpose, methods, locations, and progress of clinical trials. Managed by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, it promotes accountability and helps prevent duplication, facilitates participant recruitment, and enhances trust in the research process by providing up-to-date, detailed trial information.
