Suggestions for clinical trials
Hi, I don’t know if it’s the right forum, but I would like to discuss some issues that concern me a lot about the inclusion and exclusion criteria of clinical trials.
Sorry for my English, I use google translate.
Currently clinical trials have very strict parameters for the recruitment of patients. Some pharmacists limit access to the trial by the age of the patients. I think it is very important not to limit with a specific age, but with functional tests that show if the patient is in the best conditions to be able to opt for the clinical trial.
Another issue that worries me a lot is the lack of clinical trials for patients older than 12 years that still maintain ambulation, as well as clinical trials for non-ambulation patients.
I strongly believe that pharmacists should also opt for this type of clinical trials for older patients, who are honestly the ones with the farthest possible treatment or a possible cure for their disease.
I would like this forum to talk about the experience of participating in clinical trials and if they have any suggestions to make.
Thank you!
